1:00 pm on December 21, 2016 By Reid Wilson

A Queens-based property owner has filed applications for twin two-story, two-family houses at 130-11 and 130-13 Inwood Street, in South Ozone Park. The new buildings will measure 2,940 square feet each. Across both, the residential units should average 980 square feet apiece, indicative of family-sized configurations. Each house will also come with a 300-square-foot, single-car garage. George Schwarz’s Gramercy-based architecture firm is the architect of record. The 60-foot-wide, 5,700-square-foot lot is occupied by a two-story house. Demolition permits were filed earlier this month.

Developers Plan 48,000 Square-Foot Retail Redevelopment At 410 West 207th Street, Inwood

4:00 pm on February 3, 2016 By Reid Wilson

In December, Taconic Investment Partners and Cogswell-Lee Development Group acquired the ground-lease of 410 West 207th Street, in Inwood. According to Commercial Observer, the developers plan to redevelop the property into commercial-retail space. The site is currently occupied by a single-story, 34,000 square-foot vacant supermarket, formerly a Pathmark. The structure will be renovated to accommodate a new 20,000 square-foot supermarket and multiple smaller retailers. In addition, a 14,000 square-foot retail annex will be built on a section of the parking lot. When construction is completed later this year, parking will be reduced from 200 to 120 car spaces. The property can accommodate a 240,000 square-foot residential development with retail space, although plans for such proposal are not finalized. It sits a stone’s throw away from the 207th Street stop on the 1 train.

11:00 am on February 3, 2016 By Reid Wilson

The newly redesigned and constructed 215th Street staircase in Inwood – which connects pedestrians at Park Terrace East to Broadway and West 215th Street, sitting 50 feet below – is expected to open today after two years of construction. According to Curbed NY, WXY Studios designed the staircase, which is essentially being treated like public park space. The passageway features new vegetation, cobblestone paths, new stairs, and a bike channel. Two lampposts from the original staircase, built in 1911, were incorporated into the renovations since they’re designated city landmarks. The city’s Department of Design and Construction was behind the project.
