Meshberg Group has designed several factory-style apartment buildings in Williamsburg, but the firm does plenty of historic townhouse renovation and restoration projects. Today we have renderings for a brownstone at 203 Bergen Street in Boerum Hill, which will be completely gut renovated.
A sprawling seven-story residential building may replace a cluster of warehouses and office buildings at 22 Eckford Street, next to McCarren Park in Greenpoint.
Williamsburg-based BL Realty has filed applications for a four-story, eight-unit residential building at 182 Jefferson Street, in northern Bushwick, five blocks north of the M train’s stop at Central Avenue. The building will total 6,468 square feet, and units will average 809 square feet apiece, with a fourth floor residence that extends to a “fifth-floor” penthouse. Rego Park-based Diego Aguilera is the architect of record, and an existing recessed two-story house must first be demolished.
The East Williamsburg-Bushwick industrial zone is slowly transitioning from a no man’s land around the heavily polluted Newtown Creek to a mixed-use neighborhood complete with hotels, nightclubs and retail. Near the Jefferson Street L stop, the Bushwick Collective mural project has hastened gentrification by beautifying several barren blocks with the work of dozens of street artists. So it’s no surprise that a hulking six-story factory nearby at 455 Jefferson Street may become offices and retail.
