Another tiny birdie emailed us with some of the costs that the consultants hired by the Feds are projecting for restoring the Admiral’s Row houses. As you can see from the chart, there were some later additions to the original 19th Century houses that are generally in worse condition and not considered worth saving, hence the two square footage numbers. The Rehabilitation numbers refer to restoring what’s currently there, bringing existing details back to life and duplicating missing portions; The Reconstruction numbers refer to a scenario in which remaining details are salvaged and incorporated into newly-constructed replicas. In addition to being cheaper, the Rehab approach sounds preferable to us. How do these numbers look to you?

You can’t throw a rock on Fourth Avenue without hitting a new development, but the eastern corner of Carroll Street, where two buildings are going up, has been particularly intriguing. On the southeast corner, a skinny phallic thing has shot up pretty swiftly at 251 4th Ave., and it now looms massive over the neighboring lesbian bar. The building is the handiwork of Bricolage Designs, which laid out the blueprints for 4th Ave.’s biggest condo (so far), the Novo. We haven’t seen a rendering for this one, but as one Brownstoner commenter stated, “It looks like this building has no windows in it other than the projecting balcony facing 4th avenue. Is this a storage warehouse or something?” According to DOB records, it’s actually a residential building slated to have eight units, which we assume are going to be floor-throughs given how narrow the building is. Right across the street, meanwhile, progress on 255 4th Ave. has been quite a bit slower (not surprising since it’s a much bigger footprint, though the multiple SWOs the job’s been hit with can’t have helped). A few months ago, we incorrectly ID’d this as a Scarano design; in fact, the developer pulled Scarano from the project and replaced him with a White Plains firm named KSQ Architects that appears to have mostly specialized in institutional architecture. Scarano’s original plans called for this one to rise 12 stories and have 41 units, though we’ve no idea whether the specs changed in the shuffle between architects. In any event, we’re definitely interested to find out whether these babies hit the market as rentals or condos, especially after some units at the Novo popped up as rentals. Bets?
