Permits have been filed for a two-story commercial building at 1417 Webster Avenue, in the Claremont neighborhood of The Bronx. The site is seven blocks away from the 170th street subway station, serviced by the B and D trains. Five blocks further is an identically named train station, serviced by 4 trains. RJ Capital Holdings will be responsible for the development.
The 32-foot tall structure will yield 16,500 square feet for commercial-office use.
Jarmel Kizel Architects and Engineers is responsible for the design. The curtain-wall glass structure evokes the same paneling pattern familiar to the skyscrapers in Midtown, with two brick elements anchoring the far corners of the building. A sky-blue panel rises near the building’s entrance, broadcasting the signage to the rest of the neighborhood.
