1355 Rogers Avenue Tops-Out, Flatbush, Brooklyn

7:00 am on September 13, 2017 By Nikolai Fedak

Applications filed for a 255-unit affordable building at 2119 Caton Avenue aren’t the only progress YIMBY has to report for Flatbush today. Another new affordable and supportive housing development has now topped-out at 1355 Rogers Avenue, dubbed Crystal Tower, and designed by Delacour, Ferrara, & Church Architects. The project has 123 apartments spanning eight floors and 91,100 square feet of residential space; 74 of those units will be reserved for formerly homeless individuals, 41 will be for seniors and their families that are currently on the NYCHA waitlist, and eight three-bedroom units will be available to the community at large via lottery. Completion is expected by 2018, and the site is being developed by The Doe Fund and Crystal Ball, LLC.

Permits Filed for 632 Metropolitan Avenue, Williamsburg

6:00 am on September 13, 2017 By Nikolai Fedak

Yesterday, YIMBY brought you the reveal for 308 North 7th Street in Williamsburg, designed by Issac & Stern Architects. Today, the prolific architects have filed permits for another new project in the neighborhood, at 632 Metropolitan Avenue, which is roughly equidistant between the Metropolitan and Graham Avenue stops on the L Train. The building will rise six floors and total 8,577 square feet of residential space, which will be divided amongst ten rental-sized units. Amleto Mazza of 632 Metropolitan Avenue, LLC, is listed as the developer, and demolition permits for the site’s previous two-story home were filed back in June of 2016.

Updated Design for 308 North 7th Street, Williamsburg, Brooklyn

8:00 am on September 12, 2017 By Nikolai Fedak

Yesterday, YIMBY brought you two reveals for developments coming to the architecturally-neglected blocks of Greenpoint. Today, we have an updated design for a building coming to Greenpoint’s even less fortunate cousin, Williamsburg, at 308 North 7th Street, which will substantially improve a lot formerly occupied by nondescript industrial and commercial structures.

Reveal for 370 West 125th Street, West Harlem

7:30 am on September 12, 2017 By Nikolai Fedak

West Harlem has been booming with infill development over the past few years, and YIMBY recently revealed two new residential buildings coming to Convent Avenue, in the immediate blocks northwest of West 125th Street. Now, renderings are out for another new project in the neighborhood, at 370 West 125th Street, between Morningside and St. Nicholas Avenues.

Reveal for 560-580 Marin Boulevard, Jersey City

7:00 am on September 12, 2017 By Nikolai Fedak

Jersey City’s ongoing boom will give its skyline new tallest towers along the waterfront, and eventually out in Journal Square as well. While those projects may be the most high-profile, a collection of other skyscrapers are rising in tandem across the rest of the city, and now, Jersey is set to get its own architectural equivalent of Manhattan’s Silver Towers, as proposed for 560-580 Marin Boulevard. According to Jersey Digs, the project will have 750 apartments, as well as 240,000 square feet of non-residential square footage, alongside a 1,098-space parking garage. The proposal has already received most of its necessary approvals, and the site is currently occupied by parking lots and a four-story warehouse, which will soon be demolished.

10 Monteith and 123 Melrose Making Headway at Rheingold Brewery Redevelopment, Bushwick

6:30 am on September 12, 2017 By Nikolai Fedak

Small-scale infill predominates in the blocks that surround the Rheingold Brewery redevelopment in Bushwick, which is why the project’s rise is so transformational for the neighborhood. Today, YIMBY has aerials thanks to ODA Architecture and photographer Pavel Bendov, covering the two buildings rising at 10 Monteith and 123 Melrose Streets.

Updated Design for 50 Hudson Street Heads to LPC, Tribeca

6:00 am on September 12, 2017 By Nikolai Fedak

Back in July, YIMBY reported on plans that were submitted to the Landmarks Preservation Commission for 50 Hudson Street, on the corner of Thomas Street, in Tribeca. Now, we have an update on the design,…

217 West 57th Street, aka Central Park Tower, Gets Its First Glass

8:00 am on September 11, 2017 By Nikolai Fedak

The development boom that began to envelope the 57th Street corridor with One57’s rise is finally at peak frenzy. 220 Central Park South is nearing completion, 111 West 57th Street is being clad in its terra cotta and bronze facade, and the future 1,550-foot-tall 217 West 57th Street, aka Central Park Tower, is also seeing its exterior falling into place.

Reveal for 91 Diamond Street, Greenpoint, Brooklyn

7:30 am on September 11, 2017 By Nikolai Fedak

A few blocks to the northwest of McGolrick Park, off of Nassau Avenue, a new building is coming to 91 Diamond Street, in the heart of Greenpoint, which YIMBY can now reveal. Mortar Architecture + Development is behind the project, which will replace a vacant lot.

Reveal for 111 Noble Street, Greenpoint, Brooklyn

7:00 am on September 11, 2017 By Nikolai Fedak

The blocks of Greenpoint are hardly renowned for their historic architecture, which is why it is confusing that applications for a new building in the neighborhood would even have to go through the Landmarks Preservation Commission’s approval process. But with plastic-sided housing now vulnerable to the politics of nostalgia, even sites like 111 Noble Street must navigate the city’s tendrils of red tape.
