Construction Wraps on 10-Story, 45-Unit Residential Project at 92 Morningside Avenue, Harlem

Back in June of 2015, the 10-story, 45-unit residential redevelopment project at 92 Morningside Avenue, located on the corner of West 122nd Street in Harlem, topped out. Now, construction on the exterior of the structure is wrapping up, as seen in photos in a Harlem+Bespoke report. The site’s old seven-story pre-war building received a three-story, 11,677-square-foot vertical expansion and now boasts 60,714 square feet of residential space. Before the expansion, the building was more densely occupied with 50 apartments, but it is now home to 45 rental units ranging from one- to four-bedrooms. The apartments should average a spacious 1,349 square feet apiece and will include duplex penthouses. Amenities include storage for 23 bikes, a fitness center, a children’s playroom, and a rooftop terrace. Renaissance Realty Group is the developer, while Nataliya Donskoy’s Brooklyn-based ND Architecture & Design is behind the architecture. Occupancy is expected in the coming months.

City Revokes Building Permits for 32-Story, 521-Foot-Tall Condo Tower Under Construction at 180 East 88th Street, Upper East Side

It was in September of 2015 when YIMBY last brought you news of the 32-story, 48-unit mixed-use tower under development at 180 East 88th Street, on the Upper East Side. At the time, we showed you what the view would be like from one of the upper-floor residential units. Since March, foundation work has been underway at the site, but the New York City Buildings Department recently issued a stop-work-order for the project due to a zoning controversy that allegedly allowed the developers to build a taller tower than normal, the New York Times reported. The Buildings Department says a four-foot-wide lot was created on East 88th Street to avoid streetwall and setback requirements, which allowed for the creation of a taller building. As a result, the department revoked the previously approved building permits and is requiring that DDG Partners submit new plans. The condominium tower was expected to be the tallest building above 72nd Street, at 521 feet in height. HTO Architect was the architect of record, although DDG designs their projects in-house.
