Permits have been filed for a new three-story building at the site of the former Angel Guardian Home in Dyker Heights, Brooklyn. The Sisters of Mercy sold the development in December of 2017 for an undisclosed sum of money, Brownstoner reports. Brooklyn-based Basic Groups Corp. is listed as responsible for the design.
In June, Tishman Speyer announced that construction would start for their 64-story supertall office tower in the Hudson Yards district, dubbed The Spiral, so named for BIG’s staircase terrace motif. The look is indicative of the modern collaborative style of workspace the architects and developers are working to create. Today, YIMBY has an update on progress, which appears to be making swift headway. The site’s official address is 509 West 34th Street.
Permits have been filed for a six-story residential building at 58 Palmetto Street in Bushwick, Brooklyn. The site is three blocks away from the Gates Avenue subway station, serviced by the J and Z trains. Joel Schwartz of South Side Units will be responsible for the development.
Permits have been filed for a six-story mixed-use building at 312 97th Street at Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. The site is four blocks away from the Bay Ridge 95th Street subway station, end of the line for the R trains. Three blocks away is the Shore Road Park and Parkway, with views of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge. Vladimir Slobodyansky is listed as behind the applications.
Earlier this month, we covered permits filed for the Faith Chapel Baptist Church at 552 Prospect Place, Crown Heights, Brooklyn. Today, thanks to a YIMBY reader’s tip, we can reveal renderings for the site’s soon-to-be replacement. As one might expect for such a unique building, a portion of the extant structure will be preserved, but not as much as one might expect. Stephan Tchorbajian of Hye Rise Consulting is listed as responsible for the development.
