In all, there are 28 affordable studios, 94 one-bedroom, 15 2-bedroom and five three-bedroom units, according to the officials.

The mixed-use building will offer a "variety of 'living rooms," a pool, a fitness center, a basketball court, golf simulator, children's playroom, a library, poker room, screening room and gallery — though additional fees apply.

The building is slated to open at some point in 2016, according to the listing.

The majority of the affordable units available have an income cap for applicants of between $19,622 to $50,100 per year.
