Four-Story, Eight-Unit Residential Project Now Planned at 1240 Madison Street, Bushwick

Brooklyn-based Frontgate Management Inc. has filed applications for a four-story, eight-unit residential building at 1240 Madison Street, in central Bushwick. The project will measure 5,103 square feet and its residential units should average 492 square feet apiece, indicative of rental apartments. One of the apartments on the fourth floor will also feature space in an upper penthouse level. Boaz Golani’s Brooklyn-based Beam Group is the architect of record. The latest plans replace ones filed in December under a previous property owner. The old ones called for seven residential units. The 18-foot-wide lot remains vacant. The Myrtle-Wyckoff Avenues stop on the M and L trains is five blocks away.

Renovation, Expansion Planned for Eight-Story, 423,000-Square-Foot Office Building at 441 Ninth Avenue, Hudson Yards District

The eight-story, 423,000-square-foot office building at 441 Ninth Avenue — located between West 34th and 35th streets in the Hudson Yards District — is slated to be renovated and vertically expanded by 150,000 square feet. Portions of the ground floor could also be converted into retail space, The Real Deal reported. The plans haven’t been filed with the Buildings Department yet. The Cove Property Group and hedge fund Baupost Group are the developers. The duo recently acquired the property for $330 million. The structure was originally built as a warehouse in 1953 and later converted into an office property in the 1980s. The existing tenant is expected to vacate the property within one year.
