Eyal Ovadia, doing business as an anonymous LLC, has filed applications for a four-story, two-unit residential building at 114A Marcus Garvey Boulevard, in northern Bedford-Stuyvesant, located four blocks from the Myrtle Avenue stop on the J, M, and Z trains. The 3,740 square-foot project will rise 49 feet in height on a small, 17-foot-wide lot, currently home to a garage. There will be one residential unit on the ground floor and the second unit will occupy the second, third, and fourth floors. If the 2,956 square feet of residential space is divided like so, the smaller unit will measure roughly 740 square feet and the larger one will span 2,216 square feet. Queens-based Gerald Caliendo is the architect of record.

The 40-foot-wide lot is currently vacant.

Permits Filed: 446 Park Avenue, Bed-Stuy

Park Avenue in Brooklyn begins underneath the elevated, dark Brooklyn-Queens Expressway in Clinton Hill and runs east into Bed-Stuy, where it transitions into an odd mix of warehouses, little brick apartment buildings, and aging 19th century wood frame houses. Much of the avenue was originally developed for workers at the Navy Yard, which sits a block away, but Orthodox Jews have settled the area over the last few decades. And now, even the once-desolate industrial blocks just east of the highway are becoming populated with new residential buildings. Yesterday, applications were filed for a five-story building there at 446 Park Avenue, between Kent and Franklin Avenues.
