Mayer Meisels has filed applications for a six-story, 10-unit mixed-use building at 5214 15th Avenue, in central Borough Park. The building will measure nearly 17,800 square feet, and a 2,750 square-foot community facility will span the top floor. Each unit, probably condos, will average roughly 1,500 square feet, and Kenneth Thomas is the applicant of record. The existing three-story building has five apartments, and demolition permits have not yet been filed. This would mark the developer’s fifth new building application in Borough Park this week, after 1230 48th Street.

Last December, foundation work started at 265 State Street, in Boerum Hill, where Flank and the Carlyle Group are developing a 20-story, 128-unit mixed-use building. Brownstoner now reports the building is up two stories above street level, and YIMBY has word that almost 80% of the structure’s units are in contract. Dubbed The Boerum, a hotel will occupy the first six floors, and retail is expected on the ground level. Flank is the design architect (as the firm designs and develops its own projects in-house), and Goldstein Hill & West is serving as the architect of record. Completion is slated for 2016.
