Because NYC requires a certain % be rented at a steep discount to low income minorities

i think "requires" = you get a tax subsidy if you do it, but it's so large it's functionally the same as required.

This is one of the more bizarre rules that ever became pervasive.

The only reason it makes some sense is because you do't want too many poor people congregating in one building. But why do certain poor people win a literal lottery to get to live with rich people?

Its also funny because developers are always trying to find ways like building separate entrances to get away from it as much as possible.

Worst part of NYC laws is that so many apartments are income restricited, but you still need an enormous down payment to buy one - so literally only kids with rich parents are able to have the down payment but be below the income restriction.

I knew a wily old developer in middle America who would meet the low income set asides by developing a pipeline of clergy to rent those units
