Permits have been filed to expand a two-story structure into a four-story residential building at 52 West 176th Street in Morris Heights, The Bronx. Located between Macombs Road and Grand Avenue, the lot is two blocks from the 176th Street subway station, serviced by the 4 train. Herman Jakob under the West St. Gardens LLC is listed as the owner behind the applications.
The proposed 57-foot-tall development will yield 11,197 square feet designated for residential space. The building will have 25 residences, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 447 square feet. The masonry-based structure will also have a penthouse, cellar, and a 34-foot-long rear yard.
Sander Williams 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.
