A stalled residential development at 531 Coney Island Avenue, on the border between Ditmas Park and Kensington in Brooklyn, is finally coming back to life. A tipster sent along this photo of the site at the corner of Hinckley Place, adding that the schematics were posted on the construction fence earlier this month.
Kingston Property’s planned nine-story, 22-unit residential building is now two stories above street level at 89-14 150th Street, in downtown Jamaica, a few blocks north the stations for the E, J and Z trains (on Archer Avenue). The building will measure 22,691 square feet, and the units will be condos, averaging 1,031 square feet apiece; there will only be two- and three-bedroom configurations. A small health care facility will operate in the basement level, and completion is expected in 2017. Maspeth-based Angelo Ng + Anthony Ng Architects Studio is designing.
In October 2014, YIMBY reported on filings for a seven-story residential project at 65-38 Austin Street, in Rego Park, and now the building is currently under construction, according to DNAinfo. The building will have 65 condos across 55,630 square feet of space, for average units of 855 square feet; there will be 30 one-bedroom, 30 two-bedroom and five three-bedroom units. Bayside-based Yin Hu is the developer, and Angelo Ng + Anthony Ng Architects Studio is the applicant of record. Completion is expected sometime 2016.
Property owner Andy Ho, operating under an anonymous LLC, has filed applications for a three-story, four-unit mixed-use building at the vacant lot of 150-30 12th Avenue, in northern Whitestone. The building will measure a total 8,490 square feet, which includes 4,100 square feet of retail/office space on the ground and cellar levels, and an 1,225 square-foot school on the second level. The four residential units will average 792 square feet, and Angelo Ng + Anthony Ng Architects Studio is the applicant of record.
As the growing Chinese community sprawls eastward in Queens, YIMBY finds filings for large, mixed-use developments planned further away from bustling downtown Flushing near the end of the 7 train. Yesterday, one developer filed plans for an 11-story building with commercial and community space at 141-26 Northern Boulevard, between Parsons Boulevard and Bowne Street.
