Bed-Stuy Grows Taller With New Upcoming 9-Story Building

BEDFORD-STUYVESANT, BROOKLYN — Bed-Stuy will grow a little bit taller if a housing nonprofit follows through on plans to build a nine-story apartment building.

CAMBA Housing Ventures filed plans this week to construct a mixed-use apartment building at the corner of Hart Street and Broadway. It'll bring 57 apartments to a busy area where Bed-Stuy and Bushwick meet along the J/M/Z subway line, the plans state.

The development will be inclusionary housing. CAMBA bills itself as "affordable, supportive housing developer" which has developed projects like the Reverend Dan Ramm Residence on Crooke Avenue in Flatbush.

The Bed-Stuy project will go up at 435 Hart St. and at 94 feet tall likely will tower over most other buildings in it surroundings, according to plans and city records.

The units will be 289 square feet on average, the plans state. Most of the building's 49,200 square feet will be devoted for community space, according to plans.
