Even <a href="http://www.rentseattle.com/RentDetail.aspx?id=976" rel="nofollow">old ugly apartments</a> are only affordable at about 70% of AMI (<a href="http://money.cnn.com/magazines/moneymag/bplive/2008/snapshots/PL5363000.html" rel="nofollow">2008 Seattle AMI is $77468</a>). On the other hand, apartments are still far more affordable to the middle class than in-city mortgages. I hadn't seen that award for Broadway Crossing, congratulations to Capitol Hill Housing and GGLO too. I agree completely about the affordability.
