Permits have been filed to expand a two-story structure into a six-story mixed-use building at 5120 9th Avenue in Borough Park, Brooklyn. Located between Boston Road and Pratt Avenue, the lot is near the Eastchester-Dyre Avenue subway station, serviced by the 5 train. Toby Eng is listed as the owner behind the applications.

What an embarrassing goof by Vanessa Londono.

Local NIMBYs do not want housing to be built on top of the railway tracks at 14th Ave & 60th Street.


This is actually a great spot for new development, as it is served by two subway lines and, potentially in the future, the Interborough Express.

Affordable housing developer Camber Property Group has acquired the site of an Orthodox Jewish chapel in Borough Park for just over $12 million, records show, likely planning to redevelop the property into residential units.

The Kips Bay-based builder, whose portfolio includes mixed-income housing, scooped up 4218 Ft. Hamilton Parkway for $12.2 million, according to a deed that appeared in the city register Thursday. The now-boarded-up 2-story building, between 42nd and 43rd streets in the heavily Orthodox Jewish southern Brooklyn neighborhood, was once occupied by the funeral home Shomrei Hachomos Orthodox Chapels.
