Permits have been filed for a five-story mixed-use building at 4180 Carpenter Avenue in Wakefield, The Bronx. Located between East 232nd and East 233rd Streets, the interior lot is one block west of the 233rd Street subway station, serviced by the 2 and 5 trains. Mark Stagg of RYTY Home Builders LLC is listed as the owner behind the applications.
The proposed 53-foot-tall development will yield 62,566 square feet for residential space. The building will have 92 residences, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 680 square feet. The masonry-based structure will also have a cellar and sub-cellar, a 30-foot-long rear yard, and 68 enclosed parking spaces.
Marin Architects is listed as the architect of record.
Demolition permits have not been filed yet for the parking lot on the site. An estimated completion date has not been announced.

5 stories, disappointing. The subway and Metro North are so close by. Should be double the height or larger.
Development on vacant and underutilized Bronx lots near public transit should be a minimum of 12 stories as a general rule. I also want to see more true highrises 25+ stories further into the borough and not just along the Harlem river.
Agreed!
Hurray!
More Buildings!
More People!
More Density!
More Traffic on our streets, subways and busses, etc.,
While our fragile infrastructure
continues to crumble.
That’s kind of your go-to copy and paste little protest comment is it not?
