Prospect-Lefferts Gardens Getting New Residential Building with Erratic Exterior

Rendering of 171 Lefferts Boulevard

Tuesday, Mar 20, 2018 By CityRealty Staff, CityRealty contributor

A 3-story walk-up building in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens will soon sprout a 5-story addition that will completely transform the existing Italianate-style structure. Construction permits were filed in summer 2016 for the site at 171 Linden Boulevard, between Rogers and Nostrand Avenue. The owner is listed as Joel Zupnick of 171 Linden Boulevard Holdings LLC and the architect of record is the prolific Julien Flander.

A recent Instagram post shows that the building is fully risen and towering over its three- to six-story walk-up neighbors. When finished, the building will accommodate 31 units (likely rentals) with 3 or 4 apartments per floor. Based on the rendering posted on the construction fence, the design appears to be suffering from an identity crisis of sorts. Four distinct facades stacked onto one another will sport fire escapes, wood-paneled areas, wood and glass enclosed balconies, and a cantilevering section supported by piloti.
