Property owner David Mosseri has filed applications for a four-story, six-unit residential building at 1048 Jefferson Avenue, in eastern Bushwick, located around the corner from the Halsey Street stop on the J train. The structure will measure 6,000 square feet and will rise on an narrow 18-foot-wide, 1,800-square-foot lot. Its residential units should average 690 square feet apiece, which means rental apartments are in the works. There will be two units per floor on the ground and second floors, followed by two units spanning across both the third and fourth floors. David Nagan’s Fresh Meadows-based King David Architecture is the architect of record. The property is currently occupied by a boarded-up two-story townhouse. Demolition permits have not yet been filed.

Four-Story Building Being Transformed Into 100-Bed Homeless Shelter, 1154 Dekalb Avenue, Bushwick

10:00 am on May 18, 2016 By Reid Wilson

The four-story tenement buildings at 1154-1156 Dekalb Avenue, in central Bushwick, are now being renovated into a 100-bed, male-exclusive homeless shelter, according to DNAinfo. Occupants of the homeless shelter are expected to live there for an average of nine months. After two years, the building will be turned into a permanent supportive housing facility, per the New York City Department of Social Services. The Neighborhood Association for Inter-Cultural Affairs will operate the homeless shelter. Damon House, the owner of the buildings, operated a drug treatment facility on the property until the facility’s closure in January. The structures are currently vacant. A deed restriction on the properties requires that they be used for homeless New Yorkers.
