Three-Story, Two-Family Residential Project Coming to 352 East 5th Street, Kensington

1:00 pm on July 11, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Brooklyn-based property owner Mosheref Hussain has filed applications for a three-story, two-unit residential building at 352 East 5th Street, in northern Kensington. The structure will measure 5,516 square feet. The first residential unit will span the ground and second floors, followed by the second unit on the third floor. The lower apartment will also feature space in the cellar for a recreational area and laundry facilities. Since two apartments are splitting 4,100 square feet of residential space, condominiums are likely in the works. The project will also feature two off-street parking spots. Flushing-based He Gin Lee Architect is the architect of record. The 45-foot-wide, 4,500-square-foot plot is currently occupied by a two-story house. Demolition permits haven’t yet been filed. The Church Avenue stop on the F and G trains is five blocks to the west.

Yosef Streicher, doing business as an anonymous Brooklyn-based LLC, has filed applications for a five-story, 20,421-square-foot mixed-use commercial building at 5501 New Utrecht Avenue, in the heart of Borough Park. The ground floor will host 3,200 square feet of retail space, followed by a 171-child daycare center on the second and third floors, and medical offices on the fourth and fifth floors. Charles Mallea’s Brooklyn-based M Architecture is the architect of record. The irregularly-shaped, 3,351-square-foot lot, at the corner of 55th Street, is currently occupied by a single-story commercial building. Demolition permits haven’t yet been filed. The site is located directly below the 55th Street stop on the D train.

Construction Wrapping on Eight-Story, 16-Unit Mixed-Use Project at 596 Washington Avenue, Clinton Hill

6:00 am on July 11, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Construction is wrapping up on the eight-story, 16-unit mixed-use building under development at 596 Washington Avenue (a.k.a. 863 Atlantic Avenue), in southern Clinton Hill. The structure measures 13,103 square feet. It will host 1,165 square feet of ground-floor retail space, followed by seven floors of rental apartments above. The apartments should average 727 square feet apiece, and some of them will be duplexes. Amenities include laundry facilities, storage for bikes, and a common rooftop recreational area, and all of the apartments feature some form of private outdoor space. Jacob Shwimmer’s CGS Builders is the developer and Christopher Dierig’s Midtown South-based S3 Architecture is the behind the design. Occupancy can probably be expected in the next few months. The project has largely escaped the media’s spotlight and has risen quietly since crews broke ground back in October of 2014.

Two-Story, 5,000-Square-Foot Mixed-Use Commercial Project Planned at 1625 McDonald Avenue, Midwood

3:00 pm on July 8, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Property owner Ronny Shmoel, doing business as an anonymous Brooklyn-based LLC, has filed applications for a two-story, 5,006-square-foot mixed-use commercial building at 1625 McDonald Avenue, in Midwood. The ground floor of the project will host commercial-retail and warehouse space and the second floor will house offices. The ground floor will also feature a seven-car parking garage. Gabriel Gingishvili’s Brooklyn-based MGM Creations is the architect of record. The 46-foot-wide, 5,377-square-foot property is currently occupied by a two-story house. Demolition permits have not been filed. The Avenue N stop on the F train is located a block to the north.

Four Four-Story, Single-Family Homes Coming to 4004-4010 Manhattan Avenue, Sea Gate

1:00 pm on July 8, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Staten Island-based developer Over Development has filed applications for four single-family houses at 4004-4010 Manhattan Avenue, in Sea Gate, which is the gated community on the western end of Coney Island in Brooklyn. Each house will stand four stories in height and measure 2,028 square feet. The residential portions of each structure will begin on the second floor in an effort to mitigate damage during future floods. The ground level will remain unfinished and designed to sustain flood waters. Each house will also come with two off-street parking spaces. Stanley M. Krebushevski’s Staten Island-based SMK Architect is the architect of record. The 10,033-square-foot site, on the corner of Neptune Avenue, is currently vacant. In 2012, Hurricane Sandy devastated the community with high surf, destroying many homes in the process.

Four-Story, Eight-Unit Affordable Residential Building Filed at 416 Thomas S. Boyland Street, Ocean Hill

11:00 am on July 8, 2016 By Reid Wilson

The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) has filed applications for a four-story, eight-unit residential building at 416 Thomas S. Boyland Street, in Ocean Hill. The structure will measure 10,303 square feet and its residential units should average 1,233 square feet apiece. That means the rental apartments will come in family-sized configurations. There will be two apartments per floor and no parking is included, as none is required. Salvatore Perry’s Hudson Square-based Latent Productions is the architect of record. The 40-foot-wide, 4,503-square-foot plot is currently vacant. The Rockaway Avenue stop on the A/C trains is located nine blocks to the north. Since the city is building the project, its apartments will surely come with some amount of affordability.

Six-Story, 10-Unit Mixed-Use Building Planned at 1448 Fulton Street, Bedford-Stuyvesant

10:00 am on July 8, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Queens Village-based Atari Realty has filed applications for a six-story, 10-unit mixed-use building at 1448 Fulton Street, in southern Bedford-Stuyvesant. The structure will measure 9,663 square feet. It will include 1,633 square feet of ground-floor retail space, followed by two units per floor on the second through sixth floors. They should average 640 square feet apiece, which means rental apartments are surely in the works. Amenities include an “indoor recreational room” and storage for bikes in the cellar. Gerald J. Caliendo’s Briarwood-based architectural firm is the architect of record. The 20-foot-wide, 2,000-square-foot lot is currently occupied by a single-story garage. Demolition permits haven’t been filed. The Kingston-Throops Avenues stop on the C train is located on the same block.

Permits Filed: 640 Parkside Avenue, Medical/Storage Facility in Prospect Lefferts Gardens

7:00 am on July 8, 2016 By Rebecca Baird-Remba

In the fight over whether to rezone Prospect Lefferts Gardens in Brooklyn, a few industrially zoned blocks have become major sticking points. Activists have argued that a few highway-like blocks along Empire Boulevard, at the northwestern edge of the neighborhood, would produce high-rise development and gentrification if they were rezoned to allow new apartments. But there are two more industrial blocks at the southern end of the hood, on Parkside Avenue between Rogers and New York avenues, and now, a new building may replace an old warehouse there at 640 Parkside Avenue, between Rogers and Nostrand avenues.

6:00 am on July 8, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Construction is wrapping on five four-story, single-family townhouses being constructed at 73-79 Bond Street (a.k.a. 390 State Street), in Boerum Hill. The construction progress can be seen thanks to a photo taken by Tectonic. The 49-foot-tall townhouses will each measure between 4,310 square feet and 4,566 square feet, which includes an average 2,396 square feet of livable residential space. All of them will include four bedrooms, a single-car garage in the cellar, and a roof terrace equipped with a gas grill. Other features include a screening room and bar in the sub-cellars, and private laundry facilities.
