Four-Story, 230,000-Square-Foot Mixed-Use Project Proposed for 77 West Post Road, White Plains

11:00 am on September 2, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Harlem-based Grid Properties is planning a four-story, 230,000-square-foot mixed-use development, dubbed the Boulevard, at 77 West Post Road, located on the southern end of downtown White Plains, in Westchester County. The latest plans call for 220,000 square feet of commercial-retail space, 38,000 square feet of which will be dedicated to a fitness center, Westfair reported. Twelve market-rate one-bedroom rental townhouses are also part of the plan, in addition to a 720-car parking garage. The project was presented to the city’s Common Council back in November, although it will eventually have to be approved by the city’s Planning Board. Philadelphia-based BLT Architects is behind the design. The assemblage is comprised of mostly vacant parcels and single-story commercial buildings.

10:00 am on September 2, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Property owner Shultz Lael, doing business as an anonymous Brooklyn-based LLC, has filed applications for a four-story, two-unit residential building at 262 18th Street, in South Slope. The project will measure 5,569 square feet. It will host a single apartment on the ground floor, followed by a second, townhouse-style apartment across the upper three floors. A single, enclosed parking space is included in the filing. Akeeb B. Shekoni’s Jamaica-based Askon Architects is the architect of record. The 28-foot-wide, 2,800-square-foot lot is currently occupied by a three-story townhouse. Demolition permits have not been filed. The Prospect Avenue stop on the R train is located four blocks away.

In the borderlands between Hell’s Kitchen and the Upper West Side, much of the new development ends up looking glassy and unremarkable. But today, YIMBY checks in on a new, loft-style building under construction at 351 West 54th Street, between Eighth and Ninth avenues, courtesy of prolific photographer Tectonic.

Groundbreaking Ceremony Held for Three-Story, 55-Unit Residential Project at 1177 Warburton Avenue, Yonkers

7:00 am on September 2, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Since plans were announced in July of 2015 for a three-story, 55-unit residential project at 1177 Warburton Avenue, located on the far-northern end of Yonkers, a groundbreaking ceremony was recently held, Westfair reported. Dubbed 1177@Greystone, the new building will contain luxury rental apartments ranging from 680-square-foot one-bedrooms to 1,245-square-foot three-bedrooms. Amenities include a fitness center and a club room, in addition to a private path to the Greystone station on Metro-North Railroad. Valhalla, N.Y.-based Ginsburg Development Companies is the developer. Completion is expected in 2017. Four vacant, single-family homes were demolished to make way for the new building.

Street Level Construction Underway on 19-Story, 72-Unit Mixed-Use Project, 2230 Broadway, Upper West Side

6:30 am on September 2, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Construction is now at street level on the 19-story, 72-unit mixed-use building under development at 2230 Broadway, located on the corner of West 80th Street on the Upper West Side. The construction progress can be seen thanks to photos posted to the YIMBY Forums. The latest building permits indicate a 123,456-square-foot, 206-foot-tall tower is in the works. It will have 22,231 square feet of commercial-retail space across the ground floor and two cellar levels, followed by residential units on the second through 18th floors. The units should average 1,609 square feet apiece, which means condominiums are likely in the works. Friedland Properties is the developer and Stephen B. Jacobs Group is behind the architecture. Completion is scheduled for the first half of 2018.

Three-Story, 18,400-Square-Foot Mixed-Use Commercial Project Filed at 2311 West 7th Street, Gravesend

6:00 am on September 2, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Brooklyn-based property owner Shun Wu has filed applications for a three-story, 18,427-square-foot mixed-use commercial building at 2311 West 7th Street, in southern Gravesend. The ground floor will host 3,338 square feet of commercial-retail space, followed by 5,228 square feet of medical offices across the second and third floors. A 29-car parking garage will be located on two underground levels. Sugnam Chang’s Brooklyn-based Basic Groups Corp. is the architect of record. The irregularly-shaped, 73-foot-wide, 4,410-square-foot plot is currently vacant. The 86th Street stop on the N train and the Avenue X stop on the F train are both two blocks away.

Preparation Starts for 17-Story Extension of Pre-War Building at 24-16 Queens Plaza South, Long Island City

3:30 pm on September 1, 2016 By Vitali Ogorodnikov

In formerly industrial Long Island City, most new developments start with a blank state. Some projects, such as the Dutch LIC, Factory House, and 42-14 Crescent Street pay homage to the district’s past via design cues. Other developments, such as 29-37 41st Avenue, 23-10 Queens Plaza South and 43-22 Queens Street, incorporate new towers alongside existing pre-war structures. The project at 24-16 Queens Plaza South takes preservation in a slightly different direction. There, Greystone Development reimagines the façade of the five-story, pre-war commercial building as the base for a new residential tower. The 22-story building at the foot of the Queensboro Bridge will be designed by the Midtown-based firm Woods Bagot. The ground level will be anchored by a 3,863-square-foot retail space, with 117 residential units to be stacked above. The existing property sat unused for some time, and construction scaffolds rose around its perimeter earlier this month.

Foundation Work Underway on 16-Story, 11-Unit Mixed-Use Project at 1010 Park Avenue, Upper East Side

2:00 pm on September 1, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Excavation is complete and foundation work is now underway on a 16-story, 11-unit mixed-use building, technically listed as an expansion of the Park Avenue Christian Church’s five-story rectory. The address is 1010 Park Avenue, between East 84th and 85th streets on the Upper East Side. A photo of the site was posted to Twitter by the church’s neighbor, Regis High School. The project will measure 59,398 square feet and will incorporate some elements of the original rectory’s façade into its facade. The ground floor and two sub-cellar levels will be used by the church, and condominium units, averaging an opulent 5,043 square feet apiece, will take up the floors above. Extell Development Company is the developer and Beyer Blinder Belle is behind the architecture. A construction timeline is not currently known. Since the site sits within the Park Avenue Historic District, the Landmarks Preservation Commission had to approve the project, which happened in January of 2015.
