Since this property is a LIHTC property that might not have a project based rental assistance contract, it is likely that it either has no waiting list or the waiting list is shorter than properties with rental assistance. You should contact the property to verify.

Linden Plaza Linden Plaza is a newly renovated, well maintained and affordable development comprised of five high-rise apartment buildings and 32 townhouses spread over 633,530 square feet in the borough of Brooklyn, NY. The complex is bordered by Sutter Avenue to the North, Linden Boulevard to the South, Lincoln Avenue to the West, and Eldert Lane to the East. It was built in 1971 and underwent a $50 million renovation in 2008 that included both the common areas as well as the apartments’ interiors.
Many units feature balconies, and there are plenty of green areas where residents can enjoy long walks within the complex, as well as a modern playground for the enjoyment of families with young children. The development also offers both indoor and outdoor parking facilities for the exclusive use of residents, at a small fee. The complex is protected by a 24-hour, seven-days-a-week security company and also houses a state-of- the- art surveillance system.
A vast network of subway and bus lines connects nearly all sections of the borough with each other and with the rest of New York City. Brooklyn is home to the New York Aquarium, Coney Island Amusement Park and Boardwalk, the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens, the Brooklyn Museum, Prospect Park, and much, much more. It also houses some of the city’s best ethnic restaurants, featuring an endless variety ranging from Greek specialties to Middle Eastern and Asian delicacies, to some seriously incredible Italian eateries claiming to have the best pizza in the world!
This LIHTC property is among the most common types of affordable rental housing in the United States. The LIHTC program only provides subsidies to the building’s owner at construction. No subsidies are provided directly to the residents, but the owner must set rents affordable to low-income renters in the area. Our data suggests Linden Plaza Preservation does not participate in any project-based rent subsidy program. This means you must earn enough to pay the full rent or have your own Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher. For that reason, LIHTC properties tend to have shorter waiting lists or even none at all. LIHTC properties nationwide are required to accept housing vouchers. LIHTC properties were first built in the late 1980's. Because they tend to be newer, these properties are more likely to have larger units, more amenities, and greater tenant service offerings than other affordable housing programs. This property might be right for you if you have a housing voucher or enough income to pay rent, are looking for a high quality property, or need immediate availability. Since this property participates in the LIHTC program, the property is required to accept Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers. As a LIHTC property that chose the 40/60 election, this property has agreed to set aside at least 40% of its units for families and individuals earning 60% of Area Median Income (AMI). Many properties have actually set aside more units than required by law, and in many cases all of the units at these properties are affordable to renters with lower incomes. Since this property participates in the LIHTC program, the property is required to accept Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers.
