It's also part of a lottery: those that qualify are put into a lottery and the "winners" get the oportunity to buy one of the several apartments they are building on that block. But it seems they didn't get enough in the lottery to do the lottery, so they're apparently selling them, but still under the same requirements.
A part of me wants to go apply for one, but another says I'd be up to my neck in financial frustration.

AMI is Area Median Income. The property is restricted to buyers making 80% of the AMI. They've done the math for you: 80% of the AMI is $56,000.
