Building applications have been filed with NYC Department of Buildings (DOB) for a new, 8-story, residential building at 3020 Valentine Avenue in the Bedford Park section of The Bronx, as reported by YIMBY.

Located at the intersection of East 202nd Street and Valentine Avenue, the lot is one block from the Bedford Park Boulevard subway station, serviced by the B and D trains. Boris Babakhanov of Bolex GC Corp. is listed as the owner behind the applications, according to YIMBY.

The proposed 80-foot-tall development will yield 28,685 square feet designated for residential space. The building will yield 42 residential units, most likely rentals, based on the average unit scope of 682 square feet. The concrete-based structure will also have a basement, lobby, mail and package room, and bike storage, but no accessory parking.

The firm, Issac & Stern Architects, is listed as the architect of record.

Demolition permits have not yet been filed and an estimated completion date for the new building has not yet been announced.
