Brooklyn-based property owner Zhu Yu has filed applications for two two-story, two-family houses at 107-109 Hastings Street, in Arrochar, a neighborhood located along Staten Island’s East Shore. Each will measure 3,026 square feet and their full-floor apartments should average 1,050 square feet apiece. The apartments will probably be geared towards families.

Mang Wong’s Brooklyn-based engineering firm Pondosa Inc. is the applicant of record. The 60-foot-wide, 6,052-square-foot site appears vacant, but it has the foundations of a small project that stalled out, and that concrete footing probably needs to be demolished first. The site is located four blocks from the entrance to the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge.
