Permits have been filed for the demolition of two neighboring three-story residential buildings at 1918-1920 Longfellow Avenue in West Farms, The Bronx. Atlantis Development Inc. is listed as the owner behind the applications.
Each of the two existing buildings rise 28 feet tall and contain three units. Full demolition is proposed for the structures, both of which sit on 3,000-square-foot lots. Permit filings currently have objections that will need to be addressed prior to the start of construction work.
An estimated completion date has not been announced. Both 1918 and 1920 Longfellow Avenue are located steps from the West Farms Square–East Tremont Avenue subway station, which provides service for the 2 and 5 trains.

I hope to see more of these post-fires give way to large apartment buildings
Yes indeed. And hopefully the average quality of design of the new large apartment buildings continues to improve as time goes on.
