"I actually live 2 blocks from Gound Zero. The incentive program to live downtown doesn't seem to be going well. There is little information on the specific requirements to qualify for the rent grants and landlords are not informing new tenants on the requirements. They are out renting apartments at rates that will not allow new tenants to qualify for the aid knowing full well that the tenants expect to receive it. Thus people are paying inflated prices with the expectation that they will receive a $500/month credit. It's a total windfall for the landlords. Eventually I am sure there will be a class action lawsuit of some kind."
What is Bloomberg or the City doing about this? This is outrageous!
