1263 President at New York Ave

This half-constructed apartment building, whose modern style is wildly out of place at the end of Doctors' Row, has been sitting there without any work being done on it for several months, maybe more than a year. Anyone know what the holdup is? There are lots of permits posted but I have no idea whether they're even valid anymore. The photos on Zillow and Trulia are watermarked Interboro Properties and give a phone number for Valerie Sebbag, who's a team lead at Interboro... maybe I should call and ask her what's up with it.

There is a valid permit for work on the site http://a810-bisweb.nyc.gov/bisweb/WorkPermitDataServlet?allisn=0003254984&allisn2=0002160574&allbin=3033283&requestid=2 So, this might be a financing-contractor dispute issue.

Back in 2015, they let their permit lapse, which resulted in a fine of $800 that still hasn't been paid. However they were able to get a new permit: http://a810-bisweb.nyc.gov/bisweb/ECBQueryByNumberServlet?requestid=6&allbin=3033283&ecbin=35154738X
