Mixed-Use Rehabilitation Underway At Five-Story Building At 721 St. Nicholas Avenue, Hamilton Heights

2:00 pm on February 1, 2016 By Reid Wilson

In 2012, the Landmarks Preservation Commission twice rejected redevelopment plans for the long-vacant five-story residential building at 721 St. Nicholas Avenue, located on the corner of West 146th Street in the Hamilton Heights section of Harlem. The property sits within the Hamilton Heights/Sugar Hill Historic District, which means building alterations require LPC approval. Harlem+Bespoke now reports a gut-renovation, without the expansion, is underway to transform the building into retail space and four residential units. Retail will measure 2,048 square feet on the ground floor, and full-floor units will average 1,278 square feet apiece. There will also be recreational space on the rooftop. Alexander Perros, doing business as an anonymous LLC, is developing, and MK Architecture is the architect of record. Completion is anticipated for this summer.

11:00 am on February 1, 2016 By Reid Wilson

YIMBY brought you new renderings last year of the planned 11-story, 11-unit residential building at 251 West 14th Street, in southern Chelsea, and now the site has changed hands. Commercial Observer reports Italy-based Pizzarotti IBC has acquired the property for $23 million, but plans to go ahead with what the previous developer, B+B Capital, had in mind. The project will measure 23,470 square feet in its entirety and is being designed by ODA Architecture. Its full-floor condominium units will measure between 1,700 and 2,500 square feet. Last December, building permits for the project were approved and demolition permits were filed for the existing four-story residential building.

3:30 pm on January 29, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Property owner Menohem Chukroon has filed applications for a four-story, eight-unit residential building at 32 Schaefer Street, in eastern Bushwick, located three blocks from the Chauncey Street stop on the J and Z trains. The new structure will encompass 7,438 square feet in total and will include 5,498 square feet of residential space. There will be two units on each floor and each unit will average 687 square feet, which means rentals are in the works. Long Island-based Shahriar Afshari is the architect of record. A two-story, single-family home must first be demolished.

730-Unit Mixed-Use Mega-Development At 406 Boston Post Road In Approval Stage, Port Chester

3:00 pm on January 29, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Greenwich, Conn.-based Starwood Capital Group’s mixed-use mega-development planned at the former 15-acre United Hospital campus, at 406 Boston Post Road in Port Chester, N.Y., is moving into the approval process, according to Westfair. The project would include the demolition of the existing medical complex, which would be replaced by 730 mixed-income residential units, a 135-key hotel, 217,000 square feet of medical office space, and 90,000 square feet of commercial-retail. It’s expected to complete the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) review process, by acquiring a Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS), and receive zoning approval sometime later this year. Local community coalition Sustainable Port Chester Alliance has also recently proposed an agreement that would include preserving the 13-story, 134-unit rental building at 999 High Street, which is unfortunately expected to be demolished in the process. Construction is expected to begin in 2018 following the necessary approvals.

Eight-Story, 78-Unit Residential Building Tops Out At 2100 Bedford Avenue, Flatbush

2:00 pm on January 29, 2016 By Reid Wilson

In the final days of 2014, YIMBY reported on applications for an eight-story, 78-unit residential building at 2100 Bedford Avenue, in northern Flatbush, located within five blocks from stops on the Q, 2, and 5 trains. In early 2015, demolition was underway on three 2.5-story wood-framed houses, and by the summer the properties were cleared. Construction began sometime after, and within the last few weeks, the structure has topped out, as seen in photos by Tectonic. The 86,622 square-foot balconied structure will have 60,364 square feet of residential space, which means rental units will average 774 square feet apiece. Floral Park-based Metropolitan Homes is developing and Karl Fischer Architect is designing the project.

New Community Center & Electrical Buildings Filed For 604-Unit Redfern Housing Complex, Far Rockaway

10:30 am on January 29, 2016 By Reid Wilson

During Hurricane Sandy, apartments at Redfern Houses – a nine-building, 604-unit housing development at 1456 Beach Channel Drive in Far Rockaway – were flooded and then left without power for weeks. The complex’s daycare was also destroyed, but the city’s Housing Authority looks to be making upgrades to its infrastructure in addition to building a new daycare center. The city filed permits to construct four single-story electrical power service buildings on the property, each of which would measure between 800 and 1,216 square feet in size. At 1490 Beach Channel Drive, a two-story, 14,295 square-foot community center was filed. That building would include a daycare center, offices, and storage on the ground floor and community space on the second floor. Michael Szerbaty’s MD Szerbaty Associates is the applicant of record.

Six Three-Story, Single-Family Homes Planned At 93 Ocean Avenue, Arrochar, Staten Island

10:00 am on January 29, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Staten Island-based V&V Builders Corp. has filed applications for six three-story, single-family homes at 30-32 Guilford Street and 93-103 Ocean Avenue, in Arrochar, located on the eastern end of Staten Island. The houses will measure between 1,724 and 1,896 square feet each, which means the development will probably be marketed towards families. Staten Island-based Stanley Krebushevski, head of SMK Architects, is the applicant of record. The property is currently occupied by a two-story, single-family house, and demolition permits have not yet been filed.

Ground Broken for 99 Hudson Street, Jersey City, To Be New Jersey’s Tallest Tower

8:00 am on January 29, 2016 By Evan Bindelglass

On Thursday, at a little before noon, a groundbreaking ceremony was held for 99 Hudson Street in Jersey City. Located on a site bounded by Hudson, Grand, Greene, and York streets, the 900-foot-tall mixed-use condominium tower will likely be the tallest building in the state and one of the tallest residential buildings in the entire country. The event not only kicked off construction, but also provided a venue to show off new renderings of the project.
