Building applications have been filed with New York City Department of Buildings (DOB) for a new, 6-story, residential building at 256 Mount Hope Place in the Tremont section of The Bronx, as reported by YIMBY.

Located between Monroe and Anthony Avenues, the lot is a 5-minute walk to the Tremont Avenue subway station, serviced by the B and D trains. Moshe Steinmetz, under MS Investments 3 LLC, is listed as the owner behind the applications.

The proposed 70-foot tall development will yield 9,620 square feet designated for residential space, according to YIMBY. The building will have 21 residential units, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 458 square feet. The steel-based structure will also have a 30-foot long rear yard but no accessory parking.

Nikolai Katz Architect is listed as the architect of record.

Demolition permits have not yet been filed for the single-family residential structure onsite, and an estimated completion date for the new building has not been announced.
