A year ago, New York University shut down the Coles Sports Center, the aging, two-story gym at the corner of Bleecker and Mercer Streets in the Village. Now the school has filed plans for its replacement, a 23-story, mixed-use tower with classrooms, dorms, new athletic facilities, and community space at 181 Mercer Street.
Construction is wrapping up on the six-story, 10-unit residential project under development at 313 West 117th Street, in Harlem. The structure can be seen in an update by Harlem+Bespoke. The latest building permits indicate the new building measures 11,910 square feet and rises 75 feet. The residential units should average 985 square feet apiece, which means either rentals or condominiums could be in the works. Walter Marin’s Midtown South-based Marin Architects is the architect of record and an anonymous Woodside-based company is the property owner. Occupancy can likely be expected in the coming weeks or months.
An anonymous Great Neck, N.Y.-based LLC has filed applications for an eight-story, mixed-use building at 802 Flushing Avenue, in eastern Bushwick.

The rooms should average a budget-sized 228 square feet apiece. Haworth, N.J.-based T.F. Cusanelli & Filletti Architects is the architect of record.
Construction is now five stories above 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. Photos of the structure have been posted to the YIMBY Forums. The latest building permits indicate the project will encompass 123,456 square feet and rise 205 feet above street level, not including the bulkhead.
