An affordable housing lottery has opened for a new nine-story development at the corner of Bond and Carroll streets, just steps from the Carroll Street Bridge. The complex, called Maison Bond, is another large residential building resulting from the Gowanus rezoning and includes a gym, a rooftop deck with a grilling station and a sky bridge.

The lottery for 335 Bond Street includes 18 one- and two-bedroom apartments, all of which are rent stabilized and incomes restricted, of which 14 can be considered truly affordable.

One bedroom in this category costs $2,496 and two-bedroom rent costs $2,958 per month.

Permits show the nine-story, 70-unit Maison Bond was designed by Studio V Architecture and developed by E&M Realty Corp, with father and son Robert and Eduard Slinin both signing on for the LLC.

In addition to the gym and rooftop terrace, the building features bicycle storage and a shared laundry room, according to the listing, which notes that some amenities require payment. The building is smoke-free and residents are allowed to have one pet per apartment, but they must weigh less than 40 pounds and are subject to breed restrictions, the advertisement said.

The apartments have dishwashers, washing machines and dryers and floor-to-ceiling windows with triple glazing, the listing said. Tenants must pay for electricity, including the stove, heating and hot water.

The renderings show that the corner building is finished in light gray brick with evenly distributed tall rectangular windows, alternating with arched windows. The commercial ground floor features large arches at the front and rear and a cut-out corner with brick details, creating a striking opening.

The renderings also show the landscaped roofs and patios, as well as the planting on the street side and the sky bridge. The short skybridge on an upper floor connects two corners of the building.

Prior to the new development, the corner of Bond and Carroll streets housed a one-story industrial building that served as a hub for a ground transportation company. It appears that the company was managed by Eduard Slinin. Unlike other owners of industrial buildings in the area that were sold to developers in the lead-up to the repurposing, E&M Realty Corp (with the Slinins behind it) purchased the building in 1995 and retained and developed the property.

Because the development benefits from the rezoning, it is required to include affordable units under the city’s Mandatory Inclusionary Housing program. The company is also expected to receive the 421-a tax benefit, according to the listing.

The Maison Bond lottery closes on March 9. To sign up, visit the listing on New York City’s Housing Connect website.
