8 - 24 Ford Street, between Carroll and Crown

And a picture of the lot today (from Crown St.):

Pretty massive.

105 units massive.

50 units / 40,017 sq.ft. at 12 Ford St. http://a810-bisweb.nyc.gov/bisweb/JobsQueryByLocationServlet?requestid=0&allbin=3038169&allstrt=FORD STREET&allnumbhous=12

55 units / 52,068 sq.ft. at 24 Ford St. http://a810-bisweb.nyc.gov/bisweb/JobsQueryByLocationServlet?requestid=0&allbin=3038172&allstrt=FORD STREET&allnumbhous=24

Looking forward to the area changing by Summer 2017 and even earlier to the extent the area starts preparing for the new residents.

@whynot_31, how does one confirm whether there will be an affordable component?

Buildings often start out "as of right", which does not mandate any affordable housing.

Later on, they decide whether apply for a 421a, which does require same.

So, it may be too early to determine whether this building would like to have affordable units.

Once such a deal is arranged, HPD pretty reliably puts a "Building Affordable Housing for New Yorkers" banner on the blue plywood.

Readers, we are in eastern Crown Heights, between Utica and Rochester.

Any Update On the above mentioned sites? 

In mid Dec, one of the sites rec'd permission to build a sidewalk shed.

I actually just spoke to my friend that lives there one building is fully erected and the corner building is up to the thrid floor 

Nice!   

I assume they will be rentals....

I need to get east of Nostrand more than I do.

Yes you do whynot_31!

One must remember that the majority of my posts stem from information learned while walking my dog.

After about 20 mins, we turn around and go back home. So, I need to get a dog who can walk further in 20 min.

I see the second building is half up

how to get further on a 40-minute dog walk

I need not only that contraption, but also that dog.

...mine will be 15 years old in April.

Can anyone post updated pictures?

This article was published today, and includes a recent shot:  http://forgotten-ny.com/2016/02/ford-street-crown-heights/

It is looking a lot like the rendering in the first post.

Almost done.

Any updates on this? Affordable housing? Rentals?

It is strange that I was not able to find any listings yet. They might be having CO problems, or in the process of entering a contract with a property management company, of an entity like the Department of Homeless Services.

From your mouth to God's ears, @whynot_31

I suspect the owners will do what is in their best interests
