Two Two-Story, Two-Family Houses Coming to 107 Hastings Street, Arrochar, Staten Island

3:00 pm on July 19, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Brooklyn-based property owner Zhu Yu has filed applications for two two-story, two-family houses at 107-109 Hastings Street, in Arrochar, a neighborhood located along Staten Island’s East Shore. Each will measure 3,026 square feet and their full-floor apartments should average 1,050 square feet apiece. The apartments will probably be geared towards families. Amenities include a single enclosed parking space in each of the ground floors, in addition to four off-street parking spaces. Mang Wong’s Brooklyn-based engineering firm Pondosa Inc. is the applicant of record. The 60-foot-wide, 6,052-square-foot site appears vacant, but it has the foundations of a small project that stalled out, and that concrete footing probably needs to be demolished first. The site is located four blocks from the entrance to the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge.

Across both buildings, the apartments should average 964 square feet apiece, which means family-sized units are in the works. Chang Hwa Tan’s Flushing-based Tan Architect is the architect of record. The 50-foot-wide, 5,012-square-foot property is currently occupied by a two-and-a-half-story house. Demolition permits were filed in April. The site is located five blocks from the Grand Avenue-Newtown stop on the M and R trains.

10:00 am on July 19, 2016 By Reid Wilson

7:30 am on July 19, 2016 By Rebecca Baird-Remba

As the dust settles after a contentious rezoning in East New York, Brooklyn, the city’s Department of Housing Preservation and Development has set its sights on Brownsville, a neglected and similarly working class neighborhood next door. The housing agency announced the start of a new “neighborhood planning process,” which will collect feedback from residents, organizations, and business owners on how the city could improve the neighborhood.

6:00 am on July 19, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Renderings have now surfaced of the 19-story, 130-unit mixed-use tower planned at 321 Wythe Avenue, located just three blocks in from the East River in Williamsburg, as per a tipster’s tweet on Friday. The renderings are credited to the project’s architect, Nataliya Donskoy’s Brooklyn-based ND Architecture & Design. The structure will encompass 134,995 square feet, according to the latest filings. The second floor will host 5,218 square feet of medical offices, followed by 130 residential units across the fourth through 19th floors. The units should average 759 square feet apiece, indicative of rentals, and amenities will include a 92-car parking garage on the ground floor, storage for 65 bikes, outdoor terraces on the second and third floors, and the rooftop.

The townhouse will include a fitness center, a laundry room, and storage space in the cellar, followed by a single-car garage on the ground floor.

The 15-foot-wide, 2,730-square-foot block-thru lot is vacant on the Vanderbilt Avenue side, but occupied by a three-story townhouse on the other side at 312 Clinton Avenue. The property sits within the Clinton Hill Historic District, which means the Landmarks Preservation Commission must approve the new building’s design.
