BKSK Architects will again appear before the Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) seeking approvals to construct a sizable commercial expansion and restoration in Manhattan’s Gansevoort Historic District, also known as the Meatpacking District. The historic row townhomes carry an address of 44-54 Ninth Avenue and 351-355 West 14th Street at the corner of 14th Street and Ninth Avenue.
Construction is complete and occupancy has begun at 11-12 44th Drive, a residential building in Long Island City, Queens. Our last update on the 80-foot-tall project was in April 2018, when Carbn NYC first debuted renderings. Designed by Zproekt and developed by Rybak Development, the structure contains 49 residential units averaging 936 square feet apiece.
Exterior work is finishing up on the Cove, an 18-story residential building at 43-12 Hunter Street in Long Island City, Queens. Designed by SLCE Architects and developed by Rockrose Development, the project will yield 123 rental apartments designed by Slade Architecture. Thirty-seven, or roughly 30 percent of the units, will be designated for affordable housing.
Permits have been filed for a seven-story mixed-use building at 125 Kings Highway in Gravesend, Brooklyn. Located at the intersection of Kings Highway and Stillwell Avenue, the corner lot is a 10-minute walk east to the Kings Highway subway station, serviced by the N train. Joseph Brunner under the 125 Kings LLC is listed as the owner behind the applications.
Construction activity has yet to begin at 27-01 Jackson Avenue, the site of a planned 27-story building in Hunters Point, Queens. Fetner Properties under American Lion, LLC is the owner behind the permit applications for the proposed 336-foot-tall mixed-use project, for which SLCE Architects is listed as the architect of record. The property is located at the corner of Jackson Avenue and 43rd Avenue.
