Four-Story, Two-Unit Residential Project Planned at 102 West 131st Street, Harlem

Atomatic Contracting Inc. has filed applications for a four-story, two-unit residential building at 102 West 131st Street, in Harlem. The 5,272-square-foot building will rise on a 16-foot-wide, 1,665-square-foot vacant lot. One of the apartments will be located on the ground floor, while the second will take up the second through fourth floors. With the residential space divided as such, the ground-floor unit would measure roughly 1,055 square feet, and the larger unit would measure 3,164 square feet, which means condominiums would be in the works. Sion Hourizadeh’s Floral Park-based Sion Associates is the applicant of record.

Property owners of the Gowanus Arts Building – a three-story, 14,750-square-foot community hub at 295 Douglass Street, in northern Gowanus – are planning to renovate and upgrade their building. The project will see the construction of a theater and gallery on the ground floor, a rooftop vegetable farm, interior renovations to art studios, and exterior upgrades, according to DNAinfo. Spoke the Hub, a nonprofit dance organization, will hold events in the new theater, which will open in early 2017. The roof farm is being dubbed Gowanus Sky Farm and will be designed by Brooklyn Grange. Civic Architecture Workshop is designing the overall project.
