Permits Filed: 3365 Cruger Avenue, Allerton

The neighborhoods north of Bronx Park remain bastions of small, market-rate development. Many of the builders are Albanian and based nearby in Morris Park, an East Bronx enclave populated by Albanians, Latinos, and Italians. One of those projects was filed yesterday at 3365 Cruger Avenue in Allerton, a mostly Puerto Rican neighborhood in the northeastern part of the borough.

Seven-Story, 12-Unit Mixed-Use Building Rises to Fourth Floor at 411 Ninth Avenue, Midtown West

In July of 2015, YIMBY revealed renderings of the seven-story, 12-unit mixed-use building under development at 411 Ninth Avenue, located on the corner of West 33rd Street in Midtown West. Now, the project is under construction and currently four stories above street level, as seen in photos by our friend Tectonic. Dubbed Skylight House, the structure will encompass 21,246 square feet. It will feature 1,395 square feet of ground-floor retail space, followed by two residential units per floor beginning on the second. The units will be rental apartments and should average 920 square feet apiece. Amenities include storage space for 11 bikes and an outdoor terrace on the roof. Property owner James Papaionnou is the developer, while H. Thomas O’Hara’s Midtown-based HTO Architect is behind the design. Completion can probably be expected later this year or in early 2017.

Four-Story, Four-Unit Residential Building Planned at 32-82 37th Street, Astoria

Property owner Basil Kaludes has filed applications for a four-story, four-unit residential building at 32-82 37th Street, in southern Astoria, located three blocks from the Steinway Street stop on the M/R trains. The structure will measure 3,124 square feet, which means its full-floor residential units should average 781 square feet apiece, indicative of rental apartments. Amalia Bournias’ Woodside-based Topos Designs Inc. is the architect of record. The 25-foot-wide, 2,500-square-foot lot was previously occupied by a two-story house. That was demolished in 2013. At the time, a different developer planned to build a slightly smaller residential project, one with three units. Of course, those plans never came to fruition.
