A new housing development
is shaping up in Belmont
on 668 E. Fordham Road as
building permits were fi led on
Tuesday, December 24.
The development will be located
on the corner of Cambreleng
Avenue.
The 11-story, 160,163 square
foot concrete-based structure
will include 98,701 square
foot designated for residential
space along with 498 square
feet set aside as commercial
space.
The retail space will feature
a fresh foods market, according
to newyorkyimby.com.
The building’s location
is convenient to mass transit
with the Fordham Metro
North Station and Fordham
Road subway station, which
supports the D line, nearby.
The possible 115 foot-tall
structure will also feature a
cellar and 58 enclosed parking
spaces.
J Frankl Associates is the
architect of record for the project
and ownership of the site
belongs to a Shahin Daneshvar
under the Shadi Development
LLC, according to permit
applications.
Bronx Times was unable to
reach Daneshvar or Shadi Development
LLC., but a spokesperson
for J Frankl presented
a lengthy statement regarding
the development.
Chief operating offi cer at J
Frankl, Ben Grunwald said:
“JFA is proud to be designing
another great project in
the Bronx at 660-668 East Fordham
Road. We have worked on
many projects in Brooklyn,
Queens, and Manhattan over
the years and it’s exciting to
see the Bronx, a place so many
track their roots to, attract
such great new development
projects. We have several others
in the pipeline and look
forward to more.
“The Fordham Road project
is unique because the developer
is from within the
community, involved in the
Bronx for more than 30 years.
His vision is based on his experience
and an insider’s view of
what the neighborhood needs.
“Twenty percent of the
building will be set aside for
affordable housing and we’re
integrating a fresh foods market.
The units are larger than
your typical apartment in order
to attract families.
“The recreational spaces,
available to all the units, will
benefi t from the best views on
the building’s top two fl oors.
In addition, we’re sprinkling
other recreational spaces
throughout to include lounges,
a library and a dedicated space
for children.
“This is truly a special
project and we’ve designed a
building that not only is aesthetically
appealing but also
compliments the neighborhood
by offering amenities
that the neighborhood needs.”
No demolition permits
have been issued and nor an
estimated completion date for
the project, according to the
Yimby report.
