Exterior work is moving along on 170 West 225th Street, a seven-story residential building in Marble Hill, Manhattan. Designed by Marin Architects and developed by Timber Equities, the 115,000-square-foot structure will yield 115 rental units, with 30 percent reserved for affordable housing. The property is located at the intersection of West 225th Street and Adrian Avenue, adjacent to Spuyten Duyvil Creek.
Façade installation is nearing completion on 140 Hillside Avenue, a seven-story residential building in Fort George, Manhattan. Designed by J Frankl Associates and developed by Read Property Group, the structure will span 26,466 square feet and yield 20 condominium units with an average scope of more than 1,000 square feet, including two penthouse units, as well as residential amenities and a cellar level. The development stands on a formerly vacant lot between Nagle Avenue to the north and Sickles Street to the southwest, and between the neighborhoods of Washington Heights and Inwood.
Permits have been filed to expand a ten-story structure into a 29-story mixed-use building at 219 East 42nd Street in Midtown East, Manhattan. Located between Second and Third Avenues, the former Pfizer headquarters is a short walk east of the Grand Central-42nd Street subway station, serviced by the 4, 5, 6, and 7 trains. Metro Loft is listed as the owner behind the applications and has plans to convert the commercial buildings into 1,500 apartments.
