200+ Unit Development Proposed for Prospect Heights

A 228-unit, mixed-use development has been proposed by Y & T Development LLC for 870 - 888 Atlantic Avenue in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn. The application requests a zoning map and text amendment that will combine up to 10 smaller lots. This will facilitate 20,000 sqft of land in which to build the 17-story building. 

In its unit count, the 211,560 sqft development is planned to include 69 affordable housing units. In addition to residential space, the building will contain 14,660 sqft of ground-floor retail and 5,500 sqft for community facilities. There will also be 40 parking spaces located in the cellar of the structure. Archimaera Architecture is the lead designer for the project. Aesthetically, the building will have stylistic cues such as facade depth and variation, textural enrichment, and integral facade plantings.

At this stage in the zoning process, the proposal is waiting to enter public review. Most recently, Y & T Development filed an Environmental Assessment Statement. The first step in the public review process will be a review by the City Planning Commission. If the project is ultimately approved in 2021, demolition and construction would be undertaken in a single phase over the course of two years. This would imply an estimated completion date of 2023.
