Four-Story, Eight-Unit Residential Building Coming To 2110 Hughes Avenue, Belmont

Property owner Yair Bohadana, based in Morrisania, has filed applications for a four-story, eight-unit residential building at 2110 Hughes Avenue in Belmont, a few blocks away from the Bronx Zoo. The building will measure 5,520 square feet in total, and units will average a rental-sized 690 square feet each. The two fourth-floor units will also share an upper-level mezzanine, bringing the building’s roof to 51 feet. Queens-based Gerald Caliendo is the architect of record, and the site’s four-story predecessor was demolished by the HPD in 2001.

Four-Story, 36-Unit Residential Project Planned At 800 Empire Boulevard, Crown Heights

Property owner Simon Lichtenstien has filed applications for a four-story residential development on a sliver of land at 800-830 Empire Boulevard, on the border of Crown Heights and East Flatbush. Located six blocks south of the Utica Avenue stop on the 3, 4 and 5 trains, the project will total 36 residential units across 21,339 square feet. Units will average a very small 593 square feet apiece, and will technically be broken up into two buildings, with 16 and 20 units, respectively. Rego Park-based Grigori Zinkevitch is the architect of record, and a single-story structure must first be demolished.

The building, which is being designed by TEN Arquitectos and developed by Two Trees, will soon stand 32 stories tall, but its significant presence at the street level is already becoming apparent, per the latest photos from Tectonic.
