Staten Island-based Keegans Construction Corp. has filed applications for four three-story, two-family residential buildings at 12-24 Norman Place, in Prince’s Bay, located on the south shore. Two of the buildings will individually measure 3,568 square feet in total and the other two will each measure a slightly less 3,443 square feet. The residential square-footage across the entire development will total 10,594 square feet, which means units will average 1,324 square feet apiece. The units will likely be geared for families and, therefore, would contain multiple bedrooms. Staten Island-based Calvanico Associates is the architect of record. The 160-foot-wide lot is currently occupied by a single-story home.

Long Island City-based Ascent Development has filed applications for a four-story, three-unit residential building at 10-27 47th Road, in the Hunters Point section of Long Island City, located a few blocks from stops on the G and 7 subways.

One duplex will take the first two floors and the other two duplexes will split the upper half of the building and the roof terrace. If both floors in each duplex are calculated separately, the six individual dwellings would average 833 square feet apiece. Jorge Mastropieto Atelier is the architect of record, and demolition permits were filed for the existing two-story townhouse in November.

Gabriel Eisen, doing business as an anonymous LLC, has filed applications for a three-story, three-unit residential building at 1727 49th Street, in southern Borough Park, located five blocks from the 18th Avenue stop on the F train.

That means full-floor units will average 2,134 square feet apiece and are likely being built to accommodate families within this Hasidic Jewish neighborhood. Brooklyn-based Eretz Builders Assistance, a general contractor, is the applicant of record. The site’s old two-story, two-unit house was demolished this past December.
