Permits have been filed for a vertical and horizontal enlargement of a two-story structure into a four-story residential building at 51 West 174th Street in Morris Heights, The Bronx. Located between Macombs Road and Grand Avenue, the lot is within walking distance of the 176th Street subway station, serviced by the 4 train. Yitzi Salamon is listed as the owner behind the applications.
The proposed 55-foot-tall development will yield 13,179 square feet designated for residential space. The building will have 25 residences, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 527 square feet. The steel-based structure will also have a cellar, penthouse, a 30-foot-long rear yard, and eight open parking spaces.
Nikolai Katz Architect is listed as the architect of record.
Demolition permits will likely not be needed as the project calls for an expansion. An estimated completion date has not been announced.

What’s with all these “vertical expansions?”
I have my doubts a single one of them will be aesthetically pleasing.
