A Dattner Architects-designed building at 491 Gerard Avenue in the Mott Haven section of the South Bronx is now accepting applications for 130 low- and moderate-income apartments. Developed by Signature Urban Properties and Monadnock Construction, the 12-story, 136-unit building is part of a bigger mixed-use complex. Qualifying New Yorkers earning 60 and 90 percent of the area median income can apply for units ranging from a $865/month studio to a $1,831/month three bedroom.
The complex, designed by Dattner Architects, includes a 13-story, 124-unit residential building at 530 Exterior Street and a 152-room Hampton Inn hotel with commercial space and retail on its ground-floor. It sits near the 149th Street station for the 2, 4 and 5 trains, as well as the Major Deegan Expressway.
Amenities at 491 Gerard include a parking lot, community room, bike storage, roof deck and a shared recreation space on the ground floor.
Qualifying New Yorkers can apply for the affordable apartments at 491 Gerard Avenue until March 9, 2018. Residents of Bronx Community Board 1 will be given preference for 50 percent of the units.
