Permits have been filed for a seven-story mixed-use building at 895 Reverend James A. Polite Avenue in Longwood, The Bronx. Located at the intersection of Westchester Avenue and Reverend James A. Polite Avenue, the lot is near the Intervale Avenue subway station, served by the 2 and 5 trains. Menacham Harfenes of MJH Construction Corp. is listed as the owner behind the applications.
The proposed 74-foot-tall development will yield 51,155 square feet, with 42,910 square feet designated for residential space, 7,709 square feet for commercial space, and 535 square feet for community facility space. The building will have 80 residences, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 536 square feet. The concrete-based structure will also have a cellar and 29 open parking spaces.
Nikolai Katz Architect is listed as the architect of record.
Demolition permits were filed last month for the single-story structure on the site. An estimated completion date has not been announced.
