2:00 pm on June 2, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Back in August of 2015, YIMBY revealed renderings of the 12-story, 13-unit residential project at 12 Warren Street, in TriBeCa. Construction on the exterior of the building, which goes by 12 Warren, is wrapping up, with the façade of the structure now fully installed, Curbed NY reported. The project is technically an expansion of the site’s five-story commercial predecessor but now boasts 55,447 square feet of residential space. The residential units, which are condominiums, should average a very spacious 4,265 square feet apiece. Amenities include a fitness center, private residential storage units, a recreational room in the cellar, and an open terrace on the rooftop. DDG is both developing and designing the project, while H. Thomas O’Hara’s Midtown-based HTO Architect is serving as the architect of record. Occupancy is expected later this year.

12-Story, 165-Unit All-Affordable Residential Building Proposed at 860 East 147th Street, Mott Haven

11:00 am on June 2, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Back in December of 2014, YIMBY reported on applications for a nine-story, 94-key hotel at 860 East 147th Street, in eastern Mott Haven, located two blocks from the East 149th Street stop on the 6 train. Now, Radson Development is proposing to develop a 12-story, 165-unit all-affordable residential project at 860-880 East 147th Street, DNAinfo reported. The developer is currently taking the 170,000-square-foot project, which requires an individual rezoning, through the city’s Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP). It recently received approval from Bronx Community Board 1 under certain conditions, including that the property at 860 East 147th Street, where the owner filed plans for a hotel, is to be excluded from the rezoning. If approved, the new building, dubbed Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Plaza, would rent all its units, which would be rental apartments ranging from studio to three-bedrooms, to extremely low- and low-income households. Amenities include a community room, laundry facilities, and rooftop terraces. Magnusson Architecture and Planning (MAP) is designing. Construction is tentatively scheduled to begin in early 2017 and be completed in late 2018. Five two- and three-story townhouses must first be demolished.

First Look at Nine-Story, 86-Key Holiday Inn Express, 4729 Third Avenue, Belmont

6:00 am on June 2, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Back in December of 2015, YIMBY reported on applications for a nine-story, 86-key hotel at 4729 Third Avenue, in Belmont, located two blocks south of the Metro-North Railroad’s Fordham station. Now, Michael Kang’s Flushing-based architecture firm has revealed colored schematic drawings of the project. It can also be revealed that InterContinental Hotels Group will be the hotel operator and is planning a Holiday Inn Express. The structure, which will rise on a 6,229-square-foot triangular lot, will encompass 43,789 square feet. Guest amenities will include laundry facilities, a fitness center, a business center with meeting rooms, a breakfast area, luggage storage, and parking for four bikes. Syosset, N.Y.-based Neelam Chadha is the developer. The property is currently occupied by a small single-story warehouse, and demolition permits were filed in December.

113-123 Clifton Place

Six Four-Story, Three-Unit Townhouses Coming to 113-123 Clifton Place, Bedford-Stuyvesant

4:00 pm on June 1, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Brooklyn-based CS Real Estate Group has filed applications for three four-story, six-unit residential buildings at 113-123 Clifton Place, in western Bedford-Stuyvesant, located around the block from the Classon Avenue stop on the G train. The development will likely read like townhouses, as each building will actually be split into two 20-foot-wide sections, with three units in each “townhouse.” All of the townhouse sections will have similar configurations, with one unit located on the ground and cellar levels, another unit located on the second floor and part of the third floor, and the final unit hosted on the rest of the third floor and the entire fourth floor. The residential space varies between each building, but an average unit across the whole development should cover 1,027 square feet, indicative of condominiums. Karl Fischer is the architect of record. The 120-foot-wide lot is currently occupied by a two-story commercial building and a low-slung warehouse. Permits were field last year to demolish the structures.

587-591 Third Avenue

20-Story, 74-Unit Mixed-Use Project at 591 Third Avenue in Murray Hill Could Be Condos

3:00 pm on June 1, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Back in March of 2015, CB Developers, SK Development, and Ironstate Development acquired, for $25.2 million, the three five-story tenement buildings at 587-591 Third Avenue, located between East 38th and 39th streets in Murray Hill. Around that time, the developers filed applications for a 20-story, 74-unit mixed-use building at the site. Now, the team has submitted preliminary applications (called CPS-1 documents, which are associated with marketing) with the state Attorney General’s office for a condominium project, according to The Real Deal. Filings with the Buildings Department describe a 96,166-square-foot building in the works. It will have 4,231 square feet of retail space on the ground and cellar levels, and its residential units should average 972 square feet apiece. Edgar L. Rawlings’ Lower East Side-based Rawlings Architects is the architect of record. Demolition permits were filed for the existing tenements back in 2014.
