Property owner Rafael Reihanian has filed applications for a four-story, four-unit residential building at 370 Gates Avenue, in western Bedford-Stuyvesant. The same developer filed for a similar building at the adjacent lot 368 Gates Avenue on Friday, and both buildings will measure nearly 5,000 square feet each. L&C Associates is designing, and a dilapidated two-story townhouse was recently approved for demolition.
In January, Brownstoner reported that the new two-story Whole Foods building had topped out at 242 Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg, and now Gothamist has the latest with photos of façade installation. The 50,000 square-foot building appears to have received a redesign, which notably includes a cleaner and more modern glass envelope. Aurora Capital Associates and Midtown Equities is developing, and completion is opening is expected in Spring of 2016.
Sotheby’s International Realty is marketing the five-story, 17,200 square-foot building — currently a parking garage — at 177 East 73rd Street, on the Upper East Side, for $50 million. Per The Wall Street Journal, the building is being advertised as a single-family residential conversion, which would cost a buyer an additional $9 to $20 million, and the structure was built in 1906.
Bloomberg Business published new renderings of the 82-story, 1,050-foot, and 139-unit ultra-luxury residential tower at 53 West 53rd Street, in Midtown. Dubbed 53W53, the Jean Nouvel-designed supertall’s duplex penthouse is listed for $70 million, and Hines is developing. MoMA is taking multiple floors close to street level, and funding secured, the tower is expected to be finished in November of 2018; YIMBY captured excavation work beginning in March, and vertical construction is imminent.
Henry Ausch has filed applications for four multi-family buildings, each rising four stories, at 1746 Linden Boulevard and 713-715 Snediker Avenue in East New York, a block away from the New Lots Avenue subway stop on the L line. The same developer filed for 67 residential units on the same block in March. The all-residential development will total 32 units and 22,520 square feet, and Karl Fischer is designing. An existing warehouse must first be removed.
