University Heights: Building Applications Filed with DOB for New, Four-Story Building at 54 Clinton Place

By SÍLE MOLONEY

Building applications have been filed with NYC Department of Buildings (DOB) for a new, four-story residential building at 54 Clinton Place in the University Heights section of The Bronx, as reported by YIMBY. Located between Grand Avenue and Aqueduct Avenue East, the lot is a 6-minute walk from the 183rd Street subway station, served by the 4 train. Alfred Cejku of 2A Mechanical Inc. is listed as the owner behind the applications.

The proposed 46-foot-tall development will yield 6,335 square feet designated for residential space. The building will yield 11 residential units, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 575 square feet, according to YIMBY. The masonry-based structure will also have a cellar, penthouse, and a 30-foot-long rear yard.

Badaly Architects is listed as the architect of record. Demolition permits have not yet been filed yet, and estimated completion date for the new structure has not been announced.
