Permits have been filed to expand a three-story structure into a six-story mixed-use building at 1986 Amsterdam Avenue in Washington Heights, Manhattan. Located between 158th Street and 159th Street, the lot is a short walk to the 157th Street subway station, serviced by the 1 train. Ru Yi under the 1986 RUYI LLC is listed as the owner behind the applications.
The proposed 63-foot-tall development will yield 10,606 square feet, with 8,135 square feet designated for residential space and 2,471 square feet for commercial space. The building will have ten residences, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 813 square feet. The concrete-based structure will also have a cellar and a 34-foot-long rear yard.
Xiaohong Zhao of Ameriland Brook is listed as the architect of record.
Demolition permits will likely not be needed as the project calls for an expansion. An estimated completion date has not been announced.
