Back in 2014, YIMBY reported on applications for a 25-story, 368-unit mixed-use building at 210 Livingston Street, in Downtown Brooklyn, and then this past October, developers Benenson Capital Partners and Rose Associates were working to land $158 million in construction loans. Real Estate Weekly reports the loan has closed, and in addition, has revealed the rendering for the project, which is being designed by Handel Architects. Seventy-four of the apartment units will be rented below market-rate, and nearly 20,000 square feet of retail space is planned on the ground and cellar levels. An 11-story office building was demolished back in 2014, and now that construction is imminent, completion is expected in late 2017.

The project includes the addition of 324 residential units, but right across the street, the same developer is first building an unassociated eight-story, 59-unit apartment building that measures 45,606 square feet. Located at 152-09 88th Avenue, two blocks from the Parsons Boulevard stop on the E and F trains, the structure is currently five stories above street level, according to Commercial Observer. It recently received an $11 million construction loan. Goldstein, Hill & West Architects is designing both of Chetrit’s projects.
