The site is located at the southwest corner of East 88th Street & 2nd Avenue and currently contains two buildings across two tax lots. In total, the combined lot square footage is approximately 6,053, with 75’ of frontage along Second Avenue and 80’ of frontage along East 88th Street. The expansive site allows for an extremely efficient layout that would enable valuable retail along the avenue and a separate, private entrance for the residential portion along treelined East 88th Street.

The development site is situated in a C2-8 zoning district, which allows for a base residential FAR of 10.0.

Finally, they have also already purchased 16,135 sf of inclusionary housing rights utilizing the 2.0 FAR bonus available within this zoning district.
