Poor people not allowed in AOC's luxury apartment complex

But Ocasio-Cortez’s new building — built by leading D.C. developer WC Smith — is part of a luxury complex whose owners specifically do not offer affordable units under Washington, D.C.’s Affordable Dwelling Units program. The Washington Examiner is not naming the building or complex.

In 2018, a civil rights attorney sued the Washington, D.C. government for allegedly discriminatory gentrification policies, claiming that development in Navy Yard area and other parts of southeast D.C. encouraged an influx of affluent “millennial creatives” who displaced minority residents.

Ocasio-Cortez, commonly referred to as "AOC," repeatedly criticized luxury real estate developers during her campaign, claiming that their buildings hiked up rent prices and pushed low-income residents out of their neighborhoods.

iPhone and Starbucks. She's not a socialist. She's not even a social justice warrior. My SJW colleagues don't own iPhones and don't drink Starbucks. It's all Androids and locally owned coffee shops with ethically grown beans.



Of course she's not a socialist. She's a democratic socialist. Huge difference and anyone who is the least bit educated knows this.

What specifically is "luxury" about her building, compared to Trump Tower, for example? Are there affordable units and public housing in the neighborhood?

Her new apartment complex — which boasts on its website that it vows to take "luxury apartment living" to a higher level — offers over 100,000 square feet of amenities for its residents.

These include: two private massage rooms with state-of-the-art hydrotherapy beds; men’s and women’s saunas; a full-scale demonstration kitchen with wood-fired pizza oven; a 25-meter indoor lap pool; a rooftop infinity pool with panoramic views of the Capitol; a Peloton cycling studio with over a dozen bikes; and a fireside lounge featuring a Steinway & Sons player piano.

Also included is a PGA-grade golf simulation lounge with a wrap-around screen and viewing bar that allows residents to play virtually at dozens of the world’s most exclusive golf courses with the touch of a button.

You mean like a place with a gate, or a wall? Hmm. Go figure.

Of course Trump Tower has no affordable units and is luxury for the Uber wealthy, but Trump not any Republicans have sold themselves as socialists.

Huge glaring detail you are missing.

Walls, fences, and gates are racist and bigoted. Just because AOC lives with the security she would deny America and you pointed it out,you must be racist and bigoted as well.

As someone noted upthread, new buildings have all kinds of rent incentives. I've moved into new buildings, not for the amenities but because of the cheap(er) rent.

Kagan hunted with Scalia, so anything can happen.

She didn't run them out, she called out the give-aways and they made the corporate decision to pull out. Sounds like they had a temper tantrum over not getting all the spoils. Amazon alone is responsible for their decision not to proceed because they didn't like hearing people complain about corporate welfare.


Not everyone is placing 100% blame on Amazon.

Amazon’s pullout is just one example of what can happen because of a socialist, anti-business agenda. Imagine the consequences if it is repeated on a larger scale. #SocialismTakesCapitalismCreates

So you have rented apartments in DC with the amenities available at AOC’s building?

Specifically yes or no? Her building has details listed of said amenities and they seem more posh than most.
