Permits have been filed for a six-story residential building at 1794 Clinton Avenue in Crotona Park East, The Bronx. Located between East 175th Street and Crotona Park East, the lot is near the 174th Street subway station, served by the 2 and 5 trains. Franc Gjini of Paramount Homes Management is listed as the owner behind the applications.
The proposed 60-foot-tall development will yield 38,063 square feet designated for residential space. The building will have 57 residences, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 667 square feet. The masonry-based structure will also have a cellar and penthouse.
Jakov Saric of Node Engineering and Consulting is listed as the architect of record.
Demolition permits were filed in February for the two-story building on the property. An estimated completion date has not been announced.

What a shame this little gem of a building will have to go to make room. Hopefully the twin will be preserved and the new structure was worth the loss.
They are truly antique buildings. Both representing the American dream. At least one will be standing as a reminder of what it used to be.
Yes, charming and unique..a shame.
Why aren’t these historic buildings protected and recognized as historic treasures? Just by looking at them, you can see their charm and beauty—it’s clear that this kind of architecture deserves to be preserved. Nothing built today carries the same intricate detail or character. Modern buildings often look like soulless boxes, and they tend to age poorly in comparison.
Noooo. They belong together. I loathe these developers destroying our beautiful architectural heritage
Wow what a shame these are 2 old beauties!!! smh!
These buildings and many more buildings should be preserved to show The Bronx Historic Architecture. It appears the Engineers,Architects and Construction Companies truly Just don’t care any more about these Historic buildings. Perhaps there’s no value or respect for these things anymore. Only, just how much $$$$$$$ they would make. Sad
Situation.
