Floral Park, N.Y.-based Metropolitan Homes has filed applications for a three-story, three-unit residential building at 606 Quincy Street, located at the corner of Lewis Avenue in the heart of Bedford-Stuyvesant. The ground-up building will measure 4,788 square feet and will rise on the vacant portion of the 3,248-square-foot property.

Across both buildings, the five total apartments should average 1,107 square feet apiece. Shahriar Afshari’s Rosyln, N.Y.-based firm is the architect of record.
