Renderings have been released by INOA Architecture to reveal The Miroza Tower, a 25-story, residential building to be located at 44 Hudson Street in downtown Yonkers, as reported by YIMBY.

 

When complete, YIMBY reports that the tower will incorporate 250 rental units with a collection of amenity spaces and a small commercial component on the ground floor.

 

The Miroza Tower is the latest property from Azorim Investment, Development & Construction Co. Ltd., a publicly traded Israeli company with real estate projects in the United States, India, Ukraine, Brazil, and Europe. The development site at 44 Hudson Street was formerly occupied by a church and three-story building, both owned and operated by the Christian Life Fellowship Center.

 

Planned amenities at the new building, according to YIMBY, include a fitness center, a conference room, two residential lounges, a rooftop garden, a library, a children’s playroom, and a flexible party room.

Residents will also have access to an on-site parking garage for 222 vehicles. The project will create an additional 25 parking spaces in an off-site lot at 56-60 Buena Vista Avenue, about one block away from the residential building.

 

The massing of the building is described as an undulating series of stacked ribbons designed to accommodate required zoning and programmatic setbacks. As a result, the building features more than a dozen voids and cantilevers that will serve as private terraces for premium residences.

 

The ribbons are also designed to accommodate the site’s uneven topography, especially the first and top-floor ribbons. The first-floor ribbon defines the pedestrian and vehicular entrances, while the top-floor ribbon obscures bulkheads and mechanical units on one side, and on the other, disappears to create a rooftop garden with views toward the Hudson River and the Palisades.

 

The Yonkers Planning Board approved the project at a public hearing on February 9. Since then, the project team has not confirmed a construction schedule or an anticipated date of completion.
