Three-Story, Single-Family Townhouse Planned at 207 North 5th Street, Williamsburg

Lower Manhattan-based Fiocchi Group has filed applications for a three-story, single-family townhouse at 207 North 5th Street, in Williamsburg. The structure will measure 4,457 square feet and will rise 47 feet above street level. The basement will include a pool, a fitness center, a steam room, and storage space, followed by 4,325 square feet of residential space on the three floors above. Bryan M. Brown’s Upper East Side-based architectural firm is the architect of record. The 25-foot-wide, 2,500-square-foot property was previously occupied by a three-story, three-unit residential building, which was demolished last December. The Bedford Avenue Station on the L train is located three blocks away.


1501 Voorhies Avenue

28-Story, 236-Unit Residential Tower Rises to 10th Floor at 1501 Voorhies Avenue, Sheepshead Bay

Since foundation work was underway in April, construction on the 28-story, 236-unit residential tower under development at 1501 Voorhies Avenue, in southern Sheepshead Bay, has now reached 10 stories in height. The progress can be seen thanks to photos taken by Alex Ellefson for a Sheepshead Bites report. The building will eventually rise 321 feet above street level and encompass 279,942 square feet. The residential units will be a mix of condominiums and rental apartments, and should average 1,112 square feet apiece. Amenities include a 168-car parking garage, storage for 118 bikes, a fitness center, a pool & spa, a terrace on the second floor, and a sky lounge on the 17th floor. Muss Development and AvalonBay are the developers, while Perkins Eastman is behind the design. Completion is expected in 2018. The project is located directly east of the Sheepshead Bay stop on the B and Q trains.


Peninsula Hospital Center

Multi-Building, Mixed-Use Development Proposed for Former Peninsula Hospital Center Site, Edgemere, Queens

The Arker Companies and the Northeast Brooklyn Housing Development Corporation have acquired, for $19 million, the site of the former Peninsula Hospital Center, located at 51-15 Beach Channel Drive in Edgemere, along the Rockaways in Queens. The developers plan to build a multi-building residential and commercial complex, according to DNAinfo. It’s unclear how large the project will be, but plans will be going through the city’s Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP), which indicates an individual rezoning is in the works. That means at least 30 percent of the residential units will have to be affordable. A four-story nursing home on site is currently occupied and will remain, but the four-story, 173-bed hospital building will be demolished. The hospital has been closed since 2012. The site – bound by Beach 50th Street, Rockaway Beach Boulevard, Beach 53rd Street, and Beach Channel Drive – is five blocks from the Beach 60th Street stop on the A train.


143 Bay 47th Street

Four-Story, Two-Unit Residential Building Planned at 143 Bay 47th Street, Gravesend

Property owner Noureldin Moustafa has filed applications for a four-story, two-unit residential building at 143 Bay 47th Street, in southern Gravesend. The project will measure 3,119 square feet and its residential units should average 1,195.6 square feet apiece, indicative of condominiums. One of the apartments will span the ground and second floors, followed by the other apartment on the third and fourth floor. The upper unit will feature a roof terrace. Douglas Pulaski’s Brooklyn-based Bricolage Designs is the architect of record. The 20-foot-wide, 1,933-square-foot property is currently vacant. It was occupied by a brick garage until that was demolished in early 2015. The Bay 50th Street stop on the D train is located three blocks away.


228 Beach 109th Street

Three-Story, Three-Unit Residential Building Planned at 228 Beach 109th Street, Seaside, Queens

Under the post-Hurricane Sandy Build It Back Program, property owner Robert J. Quill has filed applications for a three-story, three-unit residential building at 228 Beach 109th Street, in Seaside, located along the Rockaways in Queens. It will contain 1,972 square feet of residential space, which means the residential units should average 657 square feet apiece, indicative of rental apartments. They would be located on two floors above a flood-resistant ground floor. Financial District-based CSA Group is the architect of record. An existing two-story house must first be demolished. Demolition permits haven’t been filed. The Beach 105th Street stop on the A and Rockaway Park Shuttle trains is three blocks away.
