The owner of a four-story residential building at 1548 Jesup Avenue in the Mt Eden section of The Bronx, filed an application with the New York City Department of Buildings, for the construction of a new sixteen-unit residential building at the same address, as reported by YIMBY, the architecture, construction, and real estate website announced on Friday, Feb. 26.

Located between Featherbed Lane and West 170th Street, the lot is two blocks west of the Mount Eden Avenue subway station, serviced by the 4 train. Yehuda Zelik, managing agent of The Management Crew is listed as the owner behind the applications.

The proposed 50-foot-tall development will yield 10,362 square feet designated for residential space. The building will have 16 residences, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 647 square feet. The steel-based structure will also have a penthouse but no accessory parking.

Nikolai Katz Architect is listed as the architect of record. Demolition permits have not been filed yet, and an estimated completion date has not been announced.
