Permits have been filed for a seven-story residential building at 755 East 85th Street in Canarsie, Brooklyn. Located between Glenwood Road and Flatlands Avenue, the lot is near the 105th Street subway station, serviced by the L train. Vilson Lumaj is listed as the owner behind the applications.
The proposed 64-foot-tall development will yield 70,237 designated for residential space. The building will have 106 residences, most likely condos based on the average unit scope of 662 square feet. The masonry-based structure will also have a cellar, 41 enclosed parking spaces, and 12 open parking spaces.
Badaly Architects is listed as the architect of record.
Demolition permits were filed this month for the one-story structure on the site. An estimated completion date has not been announced.

Is there nowhere this “architect” won’t go to make the place look worse?
Canarsie isn’t know for it’s great architecture. It’s mostly post war infill and Fedders stuff
I know much of Canarsie isn’t pretty… That has nothing to do with my contempt for Badaly “designs”.
Righ. But Badaly designs, while not great, are still better than Fedders stuff and about as good as the postwar infill stuff.
Please don’t let Badaly spread to Brooklyn.
DISASTER
7 story building in the middle of a quaint low structure block
There’s no way a building with 106 residences can fit on that tiny lot, with 41 enclosed parking spaces, surrounded by those tiny low-rise buildings. And, there’s no way such a large building is even zoned for that area. NYC DOB should revoke all those building permits immediately. Glenn in Brooklyn, NY.
