Waitlist Forecast

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.

Note: Affordable Housing Online has not confirmed the waiting list status directly with the property. This waiting list status forecast is based on our housing experts' knowledge of similar properties. You should always confirm this status directly with the property.

Queen City Lofts is designed in a way that will help the artists grow and prosper at their profession. The lobby of the building, which fronts on Main Street, will also act as a Gallery space for the resident artist to show their work at no cost. This design will capitalize on the already thriving artist community in the City of Poughkeepsie.

All the units in Queen City Lofts are set below market rents. The artist units will start at $716.00 per month for a 1-bedroom and $851.00 for a 2-bedroom. The non-artist units will start at $1,099.00 per month for 1-bedroom and $1,395.00 for a 2-bedroom.

The building is LEED certified. In addition, the development boasts numerous amenities. Such amenities include on-site laundry, on-site super-intendent, on-site management office, on-site gallery space for the resident artists, a rooftop terrace with views of the Hudson Valley. There are three separate common rooms, with the first having 3 community computers, the second (Studio A) being designed for performances, and the third (Studio B) as a shared artist space.

Dave's Thoughts On Queen City Lofts

Because Queen City Lofts participates in HUD's HOME program for rental housing and the LIHTC program, at least some of the units in this property are set aside for households earning 60% or less of the AMI and rents are capped at the local FMR and in many cases much lower. For a HOME project of this size, some of the units are set aside for households at or below 50% AMI with a corresponding lower rent cap. As this property appears not to have a project-based subsidy or any other Federal assistance, you likely will have to pay your own rent, albeit, at a lower rent amount thanks to the HOME and LIHTC programs. Since this property participates in the HOME and LIHTC programs, the property is required to accept Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers.
