New renderings have arrived for 599 Courtlandt Avenue, a four-story, mixed-use building coming to The South Bronx. Designed by Urban Architectural Initiatives (UAI), the structure will contain 5,650 square feet of residential area with an additional 750 square feet of ground floor retail.
Permits have been filed for a four-story mixed-use building at 599 Courtlandt Avenue, in the Melrose neighborhood of The Bronx. The site is three blocks away from the 3rd Avenue 149th Street subway station, serviced by the 2 and 5 trains. Procida Companies is listed as responsible for the development.
In between the 4 train’s 176th Street stop and the B and D trains’ stop at 174-175th St Station, in the Bronx’s Mount Hope neighborhood, new building applications have been filed for a sizable project that will have a total construction area of almost 110,000 square feet. That will be divided between a community facility component of 8,479 square feet, to be used by a basketball court and gymnasium on the ground floor, and 88,996 square feet of residential space, to be split between 103 units. With an average unit size of about 850 square feet, rentals are likely. The structure will rise 14 floors in all, and Aufgang Architects is designing, while Procida Companies is the developer.
Bronx-based Procida Companies has filed applications for two mid-rise, multi-family mixed-use buildings at 2047 and 2049 Newbold Avenue, located in the East Bronx’s Unionport section. Renderings of the development have been revealed by The Real Deal. The filings indicate the two buildings will rise 10 and 11 stories each, encompassing 112,109 and 94,302 square feet respectively. The 11-story structure would rise along Westchester Avenue and the 10-story building would be located on Newbold Avenue.
Albany still hasn’t resurrected the 421-a tax exemption program, and developers of big affordable housing projects have become tired of waiting for a tax break that may not return. Now Procida Companies is pushing forward with one of those developments, a 300-unit affordable housing complex at 96 New Lots Avenue in Brownsville.
