How can they smile and say how affordable this place is? For who? I can’t pay $8k/mo rent for a 3 bedroom apartment for my family. As a teacher I wouldn’t even be able to afford their $4k 2 bedroom apartments. Am I supposed to cram my whole family into the few one bedroom or studio apartments?

Council needs to get real and the media needs to be transparent in their reporting!

If it works like other apartment buildings with affordable units, then the website you linked to is only listing the unrestricted (market-rate) units. It's not listing the income-restricted (affordable) units.

"Ravel and Royale" is a dumb name, in my opinion - apparently the Ravel is the composer Ravel, not the ravel in unravel - but not any dumber than Amalyn, for example, or a gazillion other dumb development names.[/quote]

My love/hate name in Clarendon is the "Modera" apartments. They were even built during Covid when the Moderna vaccine was being used.  They could have easily changed the name to something that didn't remind people of a Covid vaccine.  [/quote]
