Bedford-Stuyvesant

Renderings have been revealed for a five-story residential building proposed for 514 Halsey Street, in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. The surrounding area is almost exclusively residential, with a few small commercial locations dotting the avenues nearby. The site is eight blocks away from the Utica Avenue Subway Station, serviced by the A and C trains. The project was put before the Brooklyn Community Board Landmarks Meeting earlier this month, and Romel Salam will be responsible for development.

Today YIMBY has the first renderings for 15 Somers Street, a six-story residential building designed by Feingold and Gregory Architects. The depiction shows a façade with warehouse-style windows and light beige brick. An ivy-covered wall protects five parking spaces on the first floor. The traditional style will match the pre-war brick row houses on both sides of the new development.

A single-story laundromat in Bedford-Stuyvesant may soon be demolished to make way for an 11-story building. The developer for the project, at 1618 Fulton Street, is Brooklyn-based FAC Fulton Street Housing Development Fund Corporation. The site is just two blocks away from the Kingston-Throops Ave station for the A and C train, as well as one block away from Fulton Park, a block-long green space with its own dog park.
