17-Story, 397-Unit Mixed-Use Building Rises to Fourth Floor at 515 Marin Boulevard, Jersey City

1:00 pm on August 18, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Construction is underway on the fourth floor of the 17-story, 397-unit mixed-use building being developed at 515 Marin Boulevard, located between Eighth and Ninth streets in the Hamilton Park section of Jersey City. The construction update is possible thanks to a photo posted to the Forums. Dubbed Marin Residences, it will also feature 20,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space. Residential units will be located above, of which 20 percent (80 units) will be designated as affordable. It’s unclear if the apartments will be rentals or condominiums. A 261-car parking garage is also being built, in addition to a 30,000-square-foot public park directly behind the project. Kushner Real Estate Group and Claremont Properties are the developers. HWKN Architects is behind the design and completion is expected in late 2017.

11:00 am on August 18, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Property owner David Azour, doing business as an anonymous Brooklyn-based LLC, has filed applications for a four-story, eight-unit residential building at 1666 Dean Street, in eastern Crown Heights. It will measure 5,900 square feet and its residential units should average 625 square feet apiece, indicative of rental apartments. There will be two unit per floor and no parking is included. Woody Chen’s Elmhurst-based Infocus Design & Planning is the architect of record. The 25-foot-wide, 2,680-square-foot lot is currently occupied by a two-story townhouse. Demolition permits were recently on Monday. The Utica Avenue stop on the A/C trains is five blocks north.

10:00 am on August 18, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Staten Island-based Terra Estates has filed applications for two three-story, two-family houses at 91-95 Fremont Avenue, in Grant City. That’s a neighborhood located along Staten Island’s East Shore. The houses will each measure 3,233 square feet and will host a single unit on the ground floor, followed by a second unit on the second and third floors. The apartments will likely boast family-sized configurations. Each house will come with a 300-square-foot, single-car garage. James V. Morri’s Staten Island-based architectural firm is the architect of record. The 7,500-square-foot property was occupied by a two-story house until that was demolished in 2014. The neighborhood’s Staten Island Railway station is a stone’s throw away.

One Journal Square Gets New Look, Big Height Bump

8:00 am on August 18, 2016 By Nikolai Fedak

Yesterday, YIMBY featured an update on Kushner Companies’ 30 Journal Square, which has transformed from a 40-something-story building into a 72-story tower. Today, we have a fresh look at One Journal Square, which has also experienced a significant height bump. What was originally supposed to host two 50-odd story buildings will instead give rise to one tower of 56 floors, and another of 79 floors.

First Look at the Conversion of an Upper West Side Rehab into Condos, 164 West 74th Street

7:30 am on August 18, 2016 By Rebecca Baird-Remba

Prime Rok Real Estate and Greystone Development purchased the eight-story, Beaux-Arts building at 164 West 74th Street for $26.8 million in February from drug and alcohol rehab nonprofit Phoenix House. Now, the two companies are converting the building, between Columbus and Amsterdam avenues in the Upper West Side/Central Park West Historic District, into condos.

Kushner Companies’ 72-Story 30 Journal Square Approved, Revealed

4:00 pm on August 17, 2016 By Nikolai Fedak

YIMBY first brought you a look at plans for Kushner Companies’ 30 Journal Square, in Jersey City’s Journal Square neighborhood, back in March of 2014. Now, the city has approved plans for it to rise, though they will differ dramatically from what was previously posted, with Morris Adjmi Architects designing a soaring 72-story tower.

25-Story Residential Building Climbs to Fourth Floor at 27-17 42nd Road in Long Island City

3:00 pm on August 17, 2016 By Vitali Ogorodnikov

When YIMBY last checked in five months ago, foundation work for the apartment building at 27-17 42nd Road in Long Island City was only starting. Now, concrete is being poured for the tower’s fourth level as it climbs on the way to its eventual 258-foot height. Though it would have dominated the surroundings when it was first proposed in late 2000s, today the building would barely make a dent on the local skyline. However, its vertical, slightly curved bulk, squeezed tightly between its high-rise neighbors, is a positive example of proper density creation within the transit-rich neighborhood. Sitting just one block south of the Queensboro Plaza station, serviced by the N, Q, and 7 trains, the future tenants living within its 184 apartments would be situated just one stop away from Midtown Manhattan.

Nine-Story, 136-Unit Affordable-Supportive Housing Project Rises Above Grade at 233 Landing Road, University Heights

2:00 pm on August 17, 2016 By Reid Wilson

After crews broke ground in September of 2015, foundation work has since been completed and steel beams are now rising for the nine-story, 136-unit affordable-supportive housing project at 233 Landing Road, in the West Bronx’s University Heights section. YIMBY can bring you the construction update thanks to a photo posted to the Forums. The latest building permits indicate the project, dubbed Landing Road Residence, will encompass 131,355 square feet. It will contain 135 below-market-rate rental apartments, ranging from studios to two-bedrooms, plus one for the superintendent. The facility will also contain a 200-bed homeless shelter, with social services included, for adults who are employed. The affordable and supportive housing components will have separate entrances and amenities. The Housing Development Fund Corporation (HDFC), partnered with various city and state agencies, is developing the project. Edelman Sultan Knox Wood Architects is behind the design. Completion is expected in 2017.

1:00 pm on August 17, 2016 By Reid Wilson

It will measure 5,761 square feet and its residential units should average 683.5 square feet apiece, indicative of rental apartments. There will be two apartments per floor, although the bottom two units will also span into the cellar and the top two units will feature outdoor space on the rooftop. Diego Aguilera’s Rego Park-based architectural firm is the architect of record. The 25-foot-wide, 2,500-square-foot lot is currently occupied by a two-story townhouse. Demolition permits were filed in June. The DeKalb Avenue stop on the L train is two blocks away.

City Announces Master Plan to Redevelop Shuttered Seaview Hospital Into Mixed-Use Complex, Staten Island

11:00 am on August 17, 2016 By Reid Wilson

The New York York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC), with Staten Island Borough President James Oddo, has announced the master plan to redevelop the severely dilapidating Seaview Hospital complex at 460 Brielle Avenue, located in central Staten Island. The mixed-use redevelopment, dubbed Sea View Healthy Community, will include medical space, retail, residential units, and community facilities/public open space. Currently, the city is in the process of allocating funding for infrastructure improvements and upgrades. The NYCEDC is planning to launch the application processes, a formal Request for Expressions of Interest (RFEI), for individual components of the redevelopment later this year. The campus sits within the New York City Farm Colony-Seaview Hospital Historic District, which means the Landmarks Preservation Commission must approve the design of all of project’s components. So far, the LPC has approved plans for a two-story Meals on Wheels building.
