    SAGE opens Stonewall House, the city's first affordable LGBTQ-friendly senior housing

    Stonewall House opened in December 2019, run by SAGE, an advocacy group for older LGBTQ people. Wikipedia describes it as New York City's first affordable senior housing development that is friendly to LGBTQ residents, and the largest of its kind in the United States. Residents must be 62 or older and earn no more than half the area median income, and a Section 8 contract caps rent at 30 percent of income.
