505 Clinton Avenue

Six-Story, 12-Unit Residential Building Now Planned at 505 Clinton Avenue, Clinton Hill

Back in September of 2014, YIMBY reported on applications for a six-story, 10-unit mixed-use building at 505 Clinton Avenue, in southern Clinton Hill, located right above of the Clinton-Washington Avenues stop on the C train. Those plans never got off the ground and are now being replaced with ones for a six-story, 12-unit residential project. The latest new building application calls for one with 10,350 square feet of residential space, which means units should average 862.5 square feet apiece. The structure would be topped by a penthouse level, which would be associated with one of the sixth-floor apartments and would be a duplex. The development team has also changed since 2014, with Brooklyn-based Dimora NYC Inc. now the developer and Woody Chen’s Elmhurst-based Infocus Design & Engineering as the architect. The 30-foot-wide site’s old two-story house was demolished in March.


267 Evergreen Avenue

Four-Story, 10-Unit Residential Building Filed at 267 Evergreen Avenue, Bushwick

Jacob Scherman, doing business as an anonymous Brooklyn-based LLC, has filed applications for a four-story, 10-unit residential building at 267 Evergreen Avenue, in central Bushwick, located three blocks from the Kosciuszko Street stop on the J train. The structure will measure 9,990 square feet, and its residential units should average 917 square feet apiece, which means family-sized rental apartments are probably in the works. The project will be topped by a penthouse (with access from one of the units on the fourth floor) and a rooftop recreational area. Amenities also include two off-street parking spaces. Woody Chen’s Flushing-based Infocus Design & Engineering is the applicant of record. A dilapidating two-story wood-framed structure must first be demolished.


113 North 9th Street

Four-Story, Two-Unit Residential Project Planned at 113 North 9th Street, Williamsburg

Idan Cohen, doing business as a Queens-based LLC, has filed applications for a four-story, two-unit residential building at 113 North 9th Street, in northern Williamsburg, located three blocks from the Bedford Avenue stop on the L train. The structure will measure 5,310 square feet, which means its residential units should average a spacious 2,655 square feet apiece, indicative of condominiums. One unit will take up the ground and second floors, along with part of the cellar, while the other unit will be located in the third and fourth floors. Woody Chen’s Elmhurst-based Infocus Design & Engineering is the architect of record. The 25-foot-wide lot is currently vacant.


245 Schaefer Street

Four-Story, 11-Unit Residential Project Coming to 245 Schaefer Street, Bushwick

Brooklyn-based Urban View Realty has filed applications for a four-story, 11-unit residential building at 245 Schaefer Street, in eastern Bushwick, located five blocks from the Wilson Street stop on the L train. The structure will measure 5,000 square feet, according to the filings, although chances are that figure is not completely telling and is much larger. There will be two apartments per floor on the ground and second levels, followed by three apartments per floor on the next two levels. The fifth-floor penthouse level will host a single unit. Woody Chen’s Elmhurst-based Infocus Design & Planning is the architect of record. It will rise on a 25-foot-wide vacant portion of a larger lot which is occupied by a small townhouse.

Brett Bernstein, doing business as an anonymous Brooklyn-based LLC, has filed applications for a four-story, seven-unit residential building at 1003 Willoughby Avenue, in western Bushwick, located four blocks from the Central Avenue stop on the M train. The structure will measure 5,000 square feet in total and its residential units should average a rental-sized 714 square feet apiece. The ground through third floors will contain two apartments each, and the project will be topped by a full-floor unit on the fourth floor that also features an upper penthouse level. Woody Chen’s Elmhurst-based Infocus Design & Planning is the architect of record. The 25-foot-wide lot is currently occupied by a two-story townhouse.
