Building applications have filed with New York City Department of Buildings (DOB) for a seven-story, mixed-use building at 1985 Jerome Avenue in the Morris Heights section of The Bronx, reported by YIMBY.

 

Located between West Burnside Avenue and West Tremont Avenue, the lot is steps from the Burnside Avenue subway station, serviced by the 4 train. Moris Yeroshalmi under the Yed LLC is listed as the owner behind the applications, according to YIMBY.

 

The proposed 70-foot-tall development will yield 41,759 square feet, with 38,620 square feet designated for residential space and 3,139 square feet for commercial space. The building will have 56 residential units, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 689 square feet. The concrete-based structure will also have a cellar and a 30-foot-long rear yard.

 

ARC Architecture + Design Studio is listed as the architect of record.

 

Demolition permits were filed in March for the parking lot on the site. An estimated completion date for the new structure has not yet been announced.
