Construction is underway for an 18-story residential condominium building at 50 Franklin Street on the site of a former garage.
The building will have 72 apartments including 20 one-bedroom units, 37 two-bedroom apartments, 10 studios and three penthouses. Units will range in size from 600-square-foot studio units to 1,700-square-foot three-bedroom apartments and prices are expected to initially range from about $600,000 to $3,000,000.
The building will have a full-time doorman, a concierge, a fitness center, a media room, some balconies, a roof deck, and a 500-square-foot, ground-floor "guest unit that residents can rent for visitors."
The mid-block building is located between Cortlandt Alley and Lafayette Street, three blocks south of Canal Street.
The building is being developed by CM & Associates of which Christopher Mesbah is a principal. Edgar L. Rawlings is the architect for the building, which has a setback at the 11th floor.
The project is expected to open in March.
