Developers File Plans For New Harlem Apartment Building
The seven-story building will rise on West 135th Street between Frederick Douglass and Adam Clayton Powell Jr. boulevards.
HARLEM, NY — Developers filed plans last month with the city Department of Buildings to replace a one-story building in Central Harlem with a new apartment and community facility development, according to public records.
Yaniv Garbo of GB Properties filed plans for the new seven-story development on West 135th Street between Frederick Douglass and Adam Clayton Powell Jr. boulevards. The new building will rise 69-feet-tall and contain 17 apartment units.
Most of the new development will be zoned for residential use. With 11,419 square feet of space zoned for apartments, the average unit will be about 671 square feet large, according to building plans. The remaining 1,653 square feet of buildable space will be used for a community facility, which building plans identify as a place of worship.
