Building applications have been filed with NYC Department of Buildings (DOB) for a new, 7-story, residential building at 1827 Waterloo Place in the Crotona section of The Bronx, as reported by YIMBY.

Located between East 175th and East 176th Streets, the lot is closest to the 174th Street subway station, serviced by the 2 and 5 trains. Elena Borokhovich of Affordable Living NY is listed as the owner behind the applications, according to YIMBY.

The proposed 65-foot-tall development will yield 14,570 square feet designated for residential space. The building will have 23 residences, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 633 square feet. The concrete-based structure will also have a 20-foot-long rear yard and seven enclosed parking spaces.

RSLN Architecture is listed as the architect of record.

Demolition permits will likely not be needed as the lot is vacant, and an estimated completion date for the new building has not yet been announced.
