EAST WILLIAMSBURG, BROOKLYN — Four new affordable units have opened up on Orient Avenue, just steps away from the former home of Clementine Kruczynski.

In case that name isn't familiar: Clementine was the character played by Kate Winslet in Michel Gondrey's 2004 film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

She lived (and was filmed) in a Victorian house formerly located at 59 Orient Ave., a property that soon fell into disrepair, according to the Brooklyn Paper. The once-stately structure was demolished in 2010, Brownstoner reported.

But we digress.

The four affordable units are located at 30-42 Orient Ave.

A pair of 1-bedrooms will rent for $947 per month, and are open to singles making $32,469-$38,100 annually, or two-person households making $32,469-$43,500 annually.

Additionally, two 2-bedrooms will rent for $1,072 per month, and are available for households of 2-4 people making between $36,755 and $54,360 annually.

The building's amenities include a recreation room and roof deck.

Applications will be accepted until June 15. They can be submitted on the city's Housing Connect website, or requested by mail by sending a self-addressed envelope to: Orient Park LLC, c/o SJP Tax Consultants Inc, 149-41 14th Avenue, Whitestone NY 11357.

Two of the four units will be prioritized for residents of Community Board 1. Those with physical, vision or hearing disabilities are also encouraged to apply.
