Monthly rent for the one bedrooms costs $2,150 each and monthly rent for the two-bedroom costs $2,849.
The one-bedroom units are open to households of one to three people who make between $73,715 and $124,930 combined annually. The two-bedroom unit is open to households of two to five people who make between $97,680 and $149,890 combined annually.
A full breakdown of the income requirements to enter the housing lottery is below.
The building has a roof-deck, a laundry room and storage units available.
Nearby transit includes the N, W, and M trains and the Q101, Q19 and Q18 buses.
