Located between East 182nd Street and East 183rd Street, the lot is two blocks from the 183rd Street subway station, serviced by the 4 train. Moses Ostreicher under the 2274 Morris Avenue LLC is listed as the owner behind the applications.

 

The proposed 67-foot-tall development will yield 7,667 square feet designated for residential space. The building will have 20 residential units with an average unit scope of 383 square feet. The masonry-based structure will also have a 30-foot-long rear yard.

 

Oleg Ruditser of Engineering Professional Service is listed as the architect of record. Demolition permits were filed this August for the two-story building on the site. An estimated completion date for the new building has not been announced.
