Project: Hastings-on-Hudson

Work has begun on a new 66-unit rental complex in Hastings-on-Hudson from developer Martin Ginsburg. A formal groundbreaking for the loft-like apartments, called The Lofts at Saw Mill, is set for noon Thursday.

The $34.9 million project sits on 7.45 acres just off the Saw Mill River Parkway on Saw Mill River Road, across from the Acorda headquarters. It's about 1.5 miles from the heart of the village, said Hastings Mayor Peter Swiderski Wednesday.

The three-building complex will have two three-story buildings, each with 27 units of market-rate apartments, and one two-story building with 12 units designated as affordable under Westchester County guidelines.

Monthly rentals for the market-rate apartments will range from $2,900 for a large one-bedroom unit (950 square feet) to $5,000 for the largest three-bedroom unit (1,656 square feet).

The affordable units will range from $874 for a studio to $1,484 for a three-bedroom unit.

Project: Synagogue (Wythe Avenue, Brooklyn NY)

We were asked to create rendered facade studies for a Synagogue we are commissioned to design on Wythe Avenue in Williamsburg, Brooklyn NY. The client had very specific requests regarding the architecture and materials. For instance, the crenelated parapet detail and the inclusion of "Jerusalem Stone" were requirements that pertained specifically to the sect's original Synagogue which is located in Israel. The project is an excercise in classical proportion and creating uniquely religious architecture within highly regimented design parameters.

The client was quite happy with the result and created a banner to hang in Isreal announcing the Brooklyn Synagogue. Check that out as well as some of the latest facade studies:

Project: 1127 Willoughby Avenue

This boxy nine-story apartment building will replace a single-story warehouse at 1127 Willoughby Avenue between Knickerbocker and Wilson Avenues in Bushwick, according to a new building application filed over the weekend.

If it’s approved, the development will hold 32 apartments spread across 23,000 square feet of residential space, along with medical offices on the ground floor. That works out to an average, typically rental-sized apartment of only 718 square feet.

The first floor will have 7,060 square feet of community facility space, which are the medical offices, and an apartment lobby. Apartments will occupy the second through ninth floors, with four per floor, followed by a shared roof deck.

Construction Update: One John Street

Construction is underway at One John Street, a joint venture between Alloy Development and Monadnock Development, in the DUMBO neighborhood of Brooklyn. Situated on a waterfront site at the northern end of Brooklyn Bridge Park, the project will be the second residential development located within the park, following the Pierhouse. The 42-unit, 12-story condominium will offer two, three and four bedroom apartments designed by Alloy Development, founded by architect Jared Della Valle.

Project: Wegmans (Brooklyn Navy Yard)

Wegmans, the family-owned, Rochester-based chain of 85 stores concentrated in the Great Lakes region and the Washington Beltway, has that kind of following, inspiring fan websites, hashtags, T-shirts, even a high school musical about a couple who finds love in the aisles. The company is poised to open its first New York City store, and it has selected one of the most ripe locations: the derelict Admiral’s Row at the Brooklyn Navy Yard.

After a decade of fighting over whether to save the Civil War-era homes of Admiral’s Row along Flushing Avenue, the Navy Yard’s board approved a deal for the redevelopment of the site on Tuesday. Several buildings will be knocked down and replaced with Wegmans, other stores, industrial space and parking. Steiner NYC, creator of the Navy Yard’s 25-acre film studio, will develop the complex, set to open in 2017.

1520 Fulton Street
The 50 apartments to be mostly two-bedrooms and feature private terraces

May 14, 2015
Tess Hofmann

Eli Karp’s Hello Living is planning to bring 50 rental units to 1520 Fulton Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, the developer’s latest in a string of Brooklyn residential projects. Karp filed a permit application with the city Thursday and confirmed his plans to The Real Deal.

The 10-story, nearly 56,000-square-foot building will feature mostly two-bedroom units with private elevators that open directly into the apartments. The apartments will flow from the front to the back of the building and have large terraces in the back, Karp said. Pricing has not yet been determined.

Approximately 10,000 square feet of retail will also be included.

Karp picked up the property for $7.3 million in March and has already filed demolition permits for the Sunoco gas station on the site. Vincent Martineau is the architect of record, the filing shows.

Hello Living has several other projects underway in Brooklyn, including 1580 Nostrand Avenue and 2415 Albemarle Road in Flatbush. - See more at: http://therealdeal.com/blog/2015/05/....Oc5hJnzp.dpuf

Thanks, I'll double check and do research on ones not included.

Edit: I've been thinking of a idea for a thread accompanying this. One that is more for construction status versus the encyclopedia status of this. Likewise for the high rise thread. I'll send a pm sometime this week to you and hunser as you guys are the biggest contributors to the thread.

I wish I could move posts it would make the creation a lot easier and would be a comprehensive database linking projects, and their construction status, so that its easier to reference.

Project: 437 Herkimer Street

A new affordable housing complex with two-bedroom rentals starting at $573-a-month — as well as units for individuals with mental health issues — is set to open in Bedford-Stuyvesant this summer.

Supportive housing group The Bridge will operate the 53-unit building at 437 Herkimer St. and recently opened a public lottery for 20 two-bedroom apartments.

Project: 88 South 6th Street

The DOB has just approved plans for the 60-foot-tall development, which will rise on an 18.5-foot-wide plot between Berry Street and Bedford Avenue. It will hold 490 square feet of ground floor retail, as well as two duplex apartments on the upper floors. They’ll be divided between 1,594 square feet of residential space, meaning that each apartment will weigh in at just 797 square feet.

Charles Mallea is the architect, and the owner is Martin Brach, whose business address is an adjacent property just behind this one on Broadway. Public records say he’s owned the property since 1987.

Overall, the design is pretty decent for new construction in Williamsburg. The gray brick will be somewhat contextual, and both tenants will have roof decks—one on top, and another set back below the penthouse in the back of the building. The only downside is that there will be PTACs punched through the facade.

Project: 60 White Street ( Conversion )

Project: 64-06 Queens Boulevard

It has been revealed that a eight story Holiday Inn Express is planned to be built at 64-06 Queens Blvd in the Woodside/Maspeth area of Queens. Just blocks from MTA trains and buses and a block from the BQE entrance and less than a few minutes from the midtown tunnel. This hotel will be very resourceful to the area. Not to mention a few short miles driving to La Guardia airport.

The lot which held a 1 story auto parts store Auto Barn, shows that the purchase was made earlier this year for 5 million. Recent filings have revealed the hotel will be the new development at this location. Due to the change in zoning several years ago the current zoning R7X now allows for buildings as high as 13 stories to be constructed in the area.

Project: 810 Flushing Avenue

Renderings have been posted for a new development at 810 Flushing Ave., at the corner of Beaver Street — showing a glass and stone building with varying shades of grey.

The area was previously home to a one-story building with a bodega and a dollar store.

The new 68-foot tall property will have 42 residential units, with mostly two-bedroom units and a few three-bedroom units, according to building owner Sam Markovits.

All of the new apartments will be modern units with stainless steel appliances, dishwashers and patio space, Markovits said, adding that price points have not yet been set.

Project: 71 White Street

A former ViceVersa Vintage clothing store in Bushwick could become the new home of a 112-key hotel at 71 White Street, according to a filing with the city’s Department of Buildings Thursday.

Yoel Goldman’s All Year Management is proposing the hotel project. The filing shows that six floors will be added to the existing one-story property on the site. In total, the seven-story hotel will span nearly 80,000 square feet.

Project: 221 West 17th Street

The real estate investment firm received approval to start testing the market for the 10-story residential development, known as The Dorian, from the state attorney general’s office this week. Douglas Elliman’s Eklund-Gomes team is handling sales, which are expected to commence this month once the project receives full condo approval.

The roughly 40,000-square-foot development, located between Seventh and Eighth avenues, features 14 residential units including full-floor penthouse units on the seventh through 10th floors and two units on each of the second through sixth floors. The building’s ground floor will house a commercial retail space.

Delshah expects to have the project ready for move-in by the end of 2016, with lower-floor residences starting at around $3 million and the building’s top-floor 3,000-square-foot penthouse, which features three bedrooms and private roof access, asking between $9 million and $10 million.

Project: 600 Harrison Street

Developer The Daten Group secured a $15 million construction loan to build a seven-story, 46-rental unit building in downtown Hoboken, at 600 Harrison Street—one of the last viable spots for development in the tony Manhattan-adjacent city.
