Pratt Institute Files for 10-Story, 124-Room Student Dormitory at 135 Emerson Place, Clinton Hill

The Pratt Institute has filed applications for a 10-story, 124-room student dormitory at 135 Emerson Place, in Clinton Hill, located three blocks north of the Classon Avenue stop on the G train. It will measure 74,725 square feet, and dorm units should average a relatively spacious 459 square feet apiece. Student amenities will include laundry facilities and storage for 35 bikes, plus student lounges and an art studio. The building will also feature a retail store on the ground floor, but no commercial space is listed in the application. Carisima Koenig’s Midtown-based Cannon Design is the architect of record. Pratt acquired the vacant 34,700-square-foot property for $13 million back in 2012. The site could accommodate a building with 96,906 square feet of residential space, according to The Real Deal, which means 39,963 square feet of air rights will be left over if the latest plans are built.

Midtown South-based Mike Shamash has filed applications for a seven-story, eight-unit mixed-use building at 1010 Fulton Street, in southern Clinton Hill, located two blocks from the Franklin Avenue stop on the C train and Franklin Avenue Shuttle.

Beginning on the second floor, the residential units should average 815 square feet, which means rental apartments are likely in the works. Three of the apartments will be duplexes. Long Island-based Shahriar Afshari is the applicant of record. The 20.5-foot-wide, 2,091-square-foot lot is currently vacant.

There will be four 751 square-foot apartments in the expansion above the church. The ground-up building will measure 5,708 square feet, with units measuring an average 713 square feet apiece. Bahram Tehrani’s Jamaica-based BTE Design Services is the architect of record.

Eight-Story, 141-Unit Mixed-Use Building Rises at 504 Myrtle Avenue, Clinton Hill

In December of 2014, YIMBY reported on applications for an eight-story, 141-unit mixed-use building at 504 Myrtle Avenue, in northern Clinton Hill, and then renderings were revealed of the project in 2015. Now, construction is underway on the second floor of the structure, according to the Myrtle Avenue Brooklyn Partnership. The new building will measure 113,898 square feet, of which 20,023 square feet of space on the ground floor will be used for retail. Twenty-eight of the apartments will rent at below-market rates through the housing lottery, and building’s amenities include a 95-car parking garage in the cellar, a fitness center, and an outdoor terrace on the second floor. Silverstone Property Group and Madison Capital Realty are the developers, and HTO Architects is behind the design. Completion can probably be expected in 2017.

The ground and cellar levels will contain 1,228 square feet of retail space, followed by residential units, averaging 623 square feet apiece, on the floors above. The two rental apartments on the fourth floor will feature space in a set-back penthouse, and amenities include bike storage and a laundry.
