Mixed-Use

22-43 Jackson Avenue

11-Story Mixed-Use Condo Building Planned At 22-43 Jackson Avenue, Long Island City

In February of 2015, the property owners of the development site at 22-43 Jackson Avenue (a.k.a. 45-60 23rd Street), located in the Court Square section of Long Island City, placed the property on the market, asking $29 million. Now, Circle F Capital is in contract to acquire the site for nearly $25 million, according to The Real Deal. The developer is planning a 10- or 11-story mixed-use building, with condominium units and 25,000 square feet of retail space. The plot, which is currently occupied by a single-story office building, can accommodate up to 76,000 square feet of development potential. Demolition permits have not been filed for the existing building, nor have new building applications for the new one.


989 Sixth Avenue

Development Team Planning 80-Story Mixed-Use Tower Closer To 2020 At 989-993 Sixth Avenue, Midtown

Back in December of 2015, it was reported that AB & Sons and Sioni Group were in contract to acquire 235,000 square feet of air rights (from the landmarked Haier Building) for their development assemblage at 989-993 Sixth Avenue, located on the corner of West 37th Street, in the Garment District section of Midtown. They have since closed on the purchase for an undisclosed amount, and now, the development team is planning a roughly 80-story mixed-use building, which could likely include retail space near the street level, a hotel, and residential units, according to The Real Deal. The site could boast up to 375,000 square feet of as-of-right development potential if the 21-story, 90,000-square-foot office building at 989-991 Sixth is demolished. The building reportedly won’t be demolished until at least 2019, probably due to existing leases. The corner lot at 993 Sixth Avenue is occupied by a partially built 18-story hotel project, which will also probably be demolished (it’s five stories in height).



225 West 86th Street

Developer Plans 213-Unit Condo Conversion at 13-Story Rental Building, 225 West 86th Street, Upper West Side

HFZ Capital is planning to convert the Belnord – a 13-story, 218-unit rental building at 225 West 86th Street, on the Upper West Side – into 213 condominium units. The developer recently filed their plans with the Attorney General’s office and expects the future condominiums to be worth a total $1.3 billion, according to The Real Deal. HFZ acquired the residential portion of the block-encompassing building – bound by West 86th and 87th streets, Broadway, and Amsterdam Avenue – for $575 million last year. The ground-floor sections contain retail space and will be left untouched. The property is an individual landmark (and is also listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places), which means any exterior alterations must be approved by the Landmarks Preservation Commission.


281 Fifth Avenue

New Details, Rendering of 55-Story, 130-Unit Condo Tower Planned at 281 Fifth Avenue, NoMad

Back in June of 2015, YIMBY revealed initial renderings of the 52-story, 141-unit residential tower planned at 281 Fifth Avenue, located at the corner of East 30th Street in NoMad. Although the latest filings still describe the same building, Curbed NY now has a new partial rendering depicting the façade of a 55-story, 130-unit tower on the corner site. The latest diagrams indicate the the 266,963-square-foot tower will rise 728 feet above street level. It will contain 7,927 square feet of retail space across the cellar, ground, and second floors, followed by residential amenities on the third through seventh floors. The residential units above will be condominiums, averaging 1,611 square feet apiece.
