Building applications have been filed with NYC Department of Buildings (DOB) to expand a 2-story structure into a 4-story, residential building at 2775 Reservoir Avenue in the Kingsbridge Heights section of The Bronx, as reported by YIMBY.

Located between West 195th Street and Strong Street, the lot is near the Kingsbridge Road subway station, serviced by the 4 train. Yitzi Salamon is listed as the owner behind the applications.

The proposed 53-foot-tall development will yield 6,674 square feet designated for residential space and the building will yield 15 residential units, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 444 square feet, according to YIMBY. The steel-based structure will also have a cellar, penthouse, and one enclosed parking space.

James Chun of Chun Engineering Consultant PLLC is listed as the architect of record.

Demolition permits will likely not be needed as the project calls for a vertical and horizontal expansion. An estimated completion date for the amended structure has not been announced.
