The Huge Building Added to 63rd Street That No One Talked About
This huge building was put up at 1055 – 63rd Street between Ft. Hamilton Parkway and 11th Avenue in Borough Park.
It’s strange that no one mentioned it since it is on a residential block. It’s nine stories on 63rd Street.
Property block and lot maps – see here
The map showing the block and lot, revealed a strange property shape. The property is on both 63rd Street and 62nd Street (it’s Block: 5730 and Lot 32 and Lot 34 (for the 62nd Street property).
At 1062 – 62nd Street are the apartments below. (Zillow) You can see the street map here.

Compass Realty shows this: (here)
Zoning Districts: R5B (this looks higher than R5B – see here)
Total Units: 3
Land Use Category: E1
Commercial Area(SF): 14,060 Sq. Ft.
Things seem to come undone at the edges of Brooklyn communities.
Why didn’t Community Board 10 mention this project? The previous property was commercial, but it wasn’t nine stories.
But even if it is “as of right” it should have been mentioned due to the size of the structure and it’s placement on a residential street.
Someone wrote that this property isn’t in Community Board 10’s district. Yes, 62nd and 63rd Street are still in CB 10. – (See map here)
A part of the communication within our community is missing.
There are a lot of complaints:
