Demolition has yet to commence at 4001 4th Avenue, the site of a four-story community facility and school building in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. Designed by De-jan Lu of Djlu Architect and developed by Azimuth Development Group, the structure is slated to stand 44 feet tall and yield 36,756 square feet, according to permits approved in September 2023. The property is located on a 10,017-square-foot lot at the corner of 4th Avenue and 40th Street.
The BP gas station that formerly operated on the site has been shuttered and wooden fencing has been assembled around the perimeter of the property. The lot is currently serving as a storage lot for vehicles and plastic construction barriers. No signs of imminent demolition are currently present.

Azimuth Development Group acquired the property from Macchia Group for $12 million in December 2024, in a deal brokered by Michael Mazzara, Brendan Maddigan, and Ethan Stanton of JLL. Guido Subotovsky of Azimuth was listed as the buyer in records of the transaction.
The nearest subways from the development are the D, N, and R trains at the 36th Street station to the north.
Finalized renderings and a construction timetable for 4001 4th Avenue have yet to be revealed.
