Façade work begins at 42-59 Crescent Street

We last stopped by 42-59 Crescent Street, future home of a hotel, back in November when construction had just topped out.1 When we stopped by last week, we saw that façade work has started, as seen in the photo below. Permits filed with the Department of Buildings for a nine-story, 83 unit building with 22,080 square feet of commercial space at an FAR of 5.00.

April 30, 2019 is the anticipated delivery time of the project, but it seems more like a mid-2020 delivery. Here’s more information courtesy of New York YIMBY, which was the first to spot the permit back in December:2

It will feature a slew of amenities, including laundry facilities, a business center with meeting rooms, a lounge, a bar/restaurant in the cellar, a café, and outdoor terraces on the ground and rooftop levels. Gwo-Shenq Wey’s Forest Hills-based architecture firm is the architect of record.
