Set to appear again before the city’s Landmarks Preservation Commission, Morris Adjmi Architects has revised its proposal for a mixed-use development in Greenwich Village. The project scope includes a new six-story building at 38 West 8th Street and renovations to a neighboring structure at 177 MacDougal Street.
Permits have been filed for a four-story condominium building at 349 Prospect Place in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn. Located between Underhill Avenue and Washington Avenue, the lot is five blocks north of the Eastern Parkway Brooklyn Museum subway station, serviced by the 2 and 3 trains. Arik Bar-Chaim is listed as the owner behind the applications.
Permits have been filed for a seven-story mixed-use building at 967 East Gun Hill Road in Williamsbridge, The Bronx. Located between Colden Avenue and Paulding Avenue, the lot is five blocks east of the Gun Hill Road subway station, serviced by the 2 and 5 trains. Raja Rizwan of R & S Construction is listed as the owner behind the applications.
Construction at One Seaport, aka 161 Maiden Lane, has been noticeably paused for the past several months. The 60-story reinforced concrete structure topped-out back in early September, and it was unclear until recently why further progress had halted. However, new reports have revealed the 670-foot-tall building is actually leaning three inches to the north, leading to a series of legal disputes between Fortis Property Group, LLC, the developer, and Pizzarotti LLC, the current contractor. The project is being designed by Hill West Architects while Groves & Co is serving as the interior designer. Douglas Elliman is handling sales of the units.
Proposals to expand and redevelop the historic Empire State Dairy Building in East New York, Brooklyn are now in review by the city’s Landmarks Preservation Commission. Located at 2840 Atlantic Avenue, the proposed development from Bushburg Properties includes an extensive restoration of the building’s poorly maintained façade, partial demolition of two adjacent structures, and a new 14-story residential tower that cantilevers above the Empire State Dairy Building, an official New York City landmark.
