The proposed 60-foot-tall development will yield 9,645 square feet designated for residential space. The building will have 22 residences with an average unit scope of 438 square feet. The steel-based structure will also have a 30-foot-long rear yard.
Jeff Akerman of Rise Architecture is listed as the architect of record.

I am not worried about what you have published this report, I’m now out of business for reading without my thinking violence: Hello New York YIMBY.
That’s a beautiful house. I noticed it had been abandoned recently. So sad to see my neighborhood be demolished block by block.
I would love to have an application
This was my family’s home. My great grandfather built this home in the early 1900s. We lived there and sold in 1999 when the neighborhood started to deteriorate. Its so sad to read they will be knocking it down for a 60 foot residential building. Villa Avenue looks disgusting these days.
So sad to see what has happened to a once beautiful Italian area. The Villa Ave feast was a highlight of my summers growing up.
