Notes & Trivia
  • Harbor Commons is a co-housing development in the Lower East Side. Started as a project after many of the residents of the Village Lofts were served eviction notices for being mutants, the development is, while not loud or public about the fact, a very mutant-friendly alternative to the overwhelming housing discrimination common in the city.
  • As a co-housing group, residency is not, ICly, fully open to everyone -- potential applicants must, in addition to the standard sorts of credit/history checks common to finding new housing, also be interviewed by a small group of residents to ensure they are a good fit.
  • This is because unlike a traditional apartment, all residents of the Commons are expected to take part in the general upkeep and environment of the place. Residents can contribute to this in a large variety of ways, as applicable to their interests and skills -- anywhere from helping with grounds maintenance to helping take care of the finances and tech support to helping prepare communal meals or organize social events or shop for needed supplies; there's a large variety of chores and work that always need doing, and everyone is expected to do what they can to keep the place going.
  • Additionally, there is a small monthly maintenance fee for all residents to take care of the cost of utilities/supplies/maintenance/etc for the shared-use areas.
  • Also additionally, while this is not publicly advertised, anyone with strongly anti-mutant sentiments (or, really, much of any bigotry all around) is highly unlikely to be accepted into a unit here -- they do have a telepath or two in the group for vetting potential new applicants and aren't looking to invite trouble into a community with a very high portion of mutants living there.
  • The common-use buildings (Common House, Workshop) are accessible via electronic keyfobs all residents are issued. These fobs are also tied to certain things around the building -- you can add money to them on the Commons website online for doing laundry, use them to unlock certain more-dangerous equipment lockers in the Workshop, use them to unlock the movie/games cabinets in the entertainment room or the instrument lockers in the music room.
  • There's not really parking here. It's still New York City. Hardly any residents even have cars; those who do are on their own for finding street parking around the Lower East Side.
