Boaz Gilad Plans Another in Bushwick: Permits Filed for 99 Grove Street

Prolific condo builder Boaz Gilad started out by developing new projects in Prospect Heights, Crown Heights, and Clinton Hill, where the market for buying condos and co-ops is pretty well-established. But the pursuit of cheaper land prices and bigger lots has pushed the Bed-Stuy based developer north and east into Bushwick. His firm, Brookland Capital, is currently working on eight buildings in the north Brooklyn neighborhood. Now they’ve filed plans for a ninth, at 99 Grove Street.

Two Four-Story, Four-Unit Affordable Residential Buildings Planned At 329 Ralph Avenue, Ocean Hill

Habitat for Humanity’s New York City branch is planning to build two four-story, four-unit residential buildings at 329-331 Ralph Avenue, in Ocean Hill, located two blocks south of the Ralph Avenue stop on the C train. According to DNAinfo, all the full-floor residential units will be co-ops, with two of them having one-bedroom layouts and the other six having two-bedrooms. The buildings were filed with the Department of Buildings last October, and will measure 4,380 and 4,500 square feet each, respectively. That means units will average 1,110 square feet across both structures. All of the units will be sold at below-market rates to households making between 50 to 80 percent of the area median income (AMI). David Cunningham Architecture Planning is the architect of record. Groundbreaking is scheduled for this summer and completion is expected in early 2017.

Three-Story, Three-Family Residential Building Coming To 1771 49th Street, Borough Park

Moshe J. Halberstam, of Brooklyn-based Diamond Property Management Inc., has filed applications for a three-story, three-unit residential building at 1771 49th Street, in southern Borough Park, located five blocks from the 18th Avenue stop on the F train. The new building will encompass 7,038 square feet, with 5,279 square feet designated for residential space. That means full-floor residential units should average a spacious 1,760 square feet apiece, indicative of family-sized condominiums. Hudson Valley-based Kenneth Thomas is the architect of record. The 35-foot-wide lot’s deteriorating two-story, two-unit residential building was demolished during the summer of 2015.


With More Traditional Design, Landmarks Approves Three-Family Home at 348 Clermont Avenue, Fort Greene

In January, we reported on a proposal for a four-story, three-unit residential building on the vacant lot at 348 Clermont Avenue. That’s between Lafayette and Green avenues in Brooklyn’s Fort Greene Historic District. Its design was initially rejected by the Landmarks Preservation Commission. On Tuesday, after a rethink, a more traditional design won them over.
