Applications have surfaced for Patoma Partners’ three-story, eight-unit mixed-use development at 52-56 Marcy Avenue and 357 Grand Street, in northern Williamsburg, four blocks from the G train’s stop at Metropolitan Avenue. The development is being divided into four equal buildings, but combined they will measure 15,020 square feet. On the ground floor, commercial-retail space will span 5,484 square feet in total, and full-floor units will average a condo-sized 1,192 square feet each. Brooklyn-based KMP Design & Engineering is the architect of record.
BrooklynBoss Properties is planning to convert and possibly expand the two-story, 11,500 square-foot building at 661 Driggs Avenue, in northwest Williamsburg, into commercial-retail space. Several restaurant and retail tenants have come forward, including Shake Shack, although a tenant(s) has not been decided on. The building can be expanded by 4,000 square feet, which could be in the form of residential units, depending on the tenant. The owner acquired the property for $5.7 million this past summer.
Over a year ago, YIMBY reported on filings for a seven-story, 75-unit residential and retail development at 84 North 3rd Street, in northern Williamsburg. Now, Hudson Companies has landed $47 million in loans to acquire the land and to fund their development, which spans 84-94 North 3rd Street and 112-125 Metropolitan Avenue. The project will actually be two buildings totaling 95 residential units, with 20% set aside for affordable housing, according to Commercial Observer. One building will be six stories and the other seven, and 15,000 square feet of ground-floor retail is expected. Marvel Architects is designing, and ABS Partners Real Estate owns a 50% stake in the property. Completion is slated for late 2017.
Brooklyn-based YS Realty has filed applications for two four-story, eight-unit residential buildings at 124-130 Harrison Avenue, in southern Williamsburg, two blocks from stops on the G train or the J/M trains to the north and east, respectively. Each building will measure 7,120 square feet, which means units will average 890 square feet. Charles Mallea’s Brooklyn-based M Architecture is the architect of record, and the site’s single-story predecessor was demolished back in 2005.
