It features 22 apartments, seven of which are part of the Affordable New York program.

Move-ins are scheduled to begin in June at the property, which was developed by Caspi Development, and Barone Management.  Pricing for market rate residences starts at $3,035 for a one-bedroom apartment and $4,000 for a two-bedroom apartment.  Corcoran New Development is the exclusive leasing agent.
