Harlem Bespoke: We have reported that a major restaurant development will arrive over at 701 West 135th Street and 12th Avenue but a local activist has just advised that the former Talay building might end up as a luxury residential development with views of the Hudson. Apparently a developer has put in a proposal for a 14-story residential building on the site that used to be all commercial spaces and everything will be up for zoning review at the local community board. More recent DOB permits suggests that restaurant renovations are currently planned but it appears that anything can happen when it comes to riverside property.
Those who are concerned about having a large residential component arriving to the 12th Avenue commercial corridor should stop by the Community Board 9 Land Use and Zoning meeting on Wednesday,
November 13th at 583 Riverside Drive by 135th Street, 7th Floor Gallery, from 6:30PM to 8:30PM. Email to add your name to a list of locals following this development and also to get more info:
