A Partial Stop Work Order which had briefly been put in place at 383 East 201st Street / 390 East Mosholu Parkway South in Bedford Park in December 2023 has since been rescinded, NYC Department of Buildings (DOB) officials said.

 

A Partial Stop Work Order was issued at 383 East 201st Street on Dec. 6, officials said, after DOB inspectors observed that work being done at the property did not comply with the Site Safety Plan.

 

Specifically, there wasn’t an adequate pedestrian walkway provided around the construction fence, among other issues. The order was fully rescinded on Dec. 11, after the contractor corrected the violating conditions, officials said.

 

According to YIMBY, a 10-story residential building is being built at the location, which is situated between Decatur Avenue and Webster Avenue. (The through lot is also addressed as 390 East Mosholu Parkway South). The nearest transit is Bedford Park Boulevard subway station, serviced by the B and D trains. Astrit Ulaj, under the 390 Mosholu LLC, is listed as the owner behind the building the building applications according to YIMBY.

The publication also reported that the 110-foot-tall development will yield 46,726 square feet, with 38,051 square feet designated for residential space. It also reported that the building will yield 52 residential units, most likely rentals, based on the average unit scope of 731 square feet and that the steel-based structure will also have a cellar and a 36-foot-long rear yard.

 

Freyer Collaborative Architects is listed as the architect of record and development required a partial demolition. According to a sign posted at the location, the anticipated completion date for the new building was August 2023.

 

The construction company listed at the site is Innovative Development and Construction LLC. A construction noise mitigation plan is in place at the site. As reported, construction can be noisy, dusty and disruptive, and living in a building that is undergoing renovation or construction can be difficult. DOB officials say conditions should never be dangerous or present hazards to occupants, however, and add that the department works to help minimize the impact of construction on existing tenants through the Office of the Tenant Advocate (OTA).
