Permits have been filed for the construction of a 4-story residential building at 1012 Woodycrest Ave. in the Highbridge neighborhood of the Bronx.

This proposed development would go up between 75th Street and 76th Street. It would be 50 feet tall and yield 10,696 square feet of residential space across 23 units. The average unit size would be about 500 square feet, indicating they would most likely be rentals.

Additional features for this development would include a cellar, a rear yard stretching 34.5 feet in length and seven open parking spaces for residents.

The property is located just one block away from the Freeman Street subway station, which services the 2 and 5 trains, providing residents with access to public transportation.

The owner behind the applications is listed as 1012 Woodycrest LLC. The listed architect of record is Nikolai Katz Architect.

A house currently occupies the site of the proposed development. Demolition permits have already been filed to knock down the existing structure, which was originally built in 1930. However, an estimated date for the completion of the building has not yet been provided.
