The gradual redevelopment of Harlem’s 125th Street corridor isn’t showing any signs of slowing down. Construction is starting to rise above ground level for a 26-story hotel and 25-story residential tower at 233 West 125th Street. The project is best known for its connection with the Victoria Theater, which will be restored and integrated with the Marriott. The Lam Group is the developer.
Redevelopments with thousands of residential units aren’t particularly common in New York City, however, the past several months have brought proposals for such projects to ULURP from several locations, including the tentative 1,642-unit expansion of Lenox Terrace, in Harlem. Today, YIMBY has the first look at plans for 2,200 new units proposed for the former Peninsula Hospital site, in Edgemere, Queens.
Permits have been filed for a nine-story residential building at 11 West 118th Street in Harlem, Manhattan. The site is four blocks away from the 116th Street subway station on Malcolm X Boulevard, serviced by the 2 and 3 trains. Victory One Housing For The Elderly is behind the applications.
Permits have been filed for a seven-story mixed use building at 37-01 30th Street in Astoria, Queens. The site is ten blocks away from the Astoria Boulevard subway station, serviced by the N and W trains. While the project is not close to any new development, it is on a retail-rich avenue, which includes several national-brand stores. An anonymous LLC is behind the applications.
YIMBY has the first rendering for yet another new building coming to Bushwick, Brooklyn, at 1601 Dekalb Avenue. The project is under development by Camber Property Group.
