A church on Rogers Avenue between Crown and Carroll Streets is currently being demolished to make way for a 165-unit, five-story building designed by Think Architecture and Design. The owner is listed at Dia Onizawa of Heights Advisors, and the building should be complete by fall 2015.

The lot at the corner of Franklin Avenue and Eastern Parkway has been in development for a long time (i.e. seven years), but the new apartment building is finally nearing completion. The finished product, designed by the Meshberg Group and developed by BlueJay Management, will hold 65 rental apartments and a Capital One bank on the ground floor. The 2/3/4/5 Franklin Avenue subway stop is located directly in front of the building.

Plans for developer Boaz Gilad's latest project were recently revealed for 954 Bergen Street near Franklin Avenue. It's his classic looks-like-two-buildings-in-one design, created by architects Isaac & Stern, and it will have 38 units and 19 parking spaces. The current two-story building on the site is now being demolished. [Photo]

A neighboring pair of three-story rowhouses on St. Johns Place are being converted into apartment buildings. Both are getting two-story additions. No. 820 will expand from a two-unit building to a seven-unit structure, while no. 822 will go from two to nine units. Work is supposed to wrap up this summer. [Photo]

Karl Fischer designed this eight-story, 172-unit building that's set to swallow a large chunk of St. Johns Place between Franklin and Classon Avenues. The developer is the Rabsky Group, one of the city's most prolific developers. Here's hoping it actually looks semi-decent and not incredibly cheap.

The bix, bland, boxy buildings that have plagued North Brooklyn for years seem to be moving southward into Crown Heights. Renderings were recently revealed for this 100,000-square-foot structure on Saint Marks Avenue between Franklin and Classon Avenues. Designed by Isaac and Stern, it will hold 172 units. [Photo]

The neo-classical Fox Savoy Theater, which originally opened in 1927, is, sadly, being demolished to be replaced by an apartment building. No renderings have been revealed yet, but the new building will not be near as lovely as the old one, as it's being designed by Isaac and Stern architects. It will be 10 stories tall and hold 114 units.

Silverstone Property Group is currently building a 77-unit market rate rental building on Sterling Place between Washington and Classon Avenues. ND Architecture and Design created the building shown in the rendering. Hopefully it will look nicer in real life. [Photo]

Part of an old brewery on Franklin Avenue between Dean and Bergen Streets recently hit the market and is ripe for residential conversion. The owner kept the brewery building that fronts on Bergen Street, and he plans to convert it into apartments, with some affordable units and retail space on the ground floor. It's a lovely industrial brick building with arched windows, so the finished product could be very attractive, but no building permits have been filed.

On the western edge of the neighborhood, a two-story townhouse will be replaced by a seven-story, seven-unit building. Unfortunately, the developer is Boaz Gilad's Brookland Properties and the architect is his go-to, Isaac & Stern. No renderings yet, but it probably won't be pretty.

Oh look, yet another ugly development by Boaz Gilad. This one is a conversion (if you can call it that) and expansion of a Romanesque Revival church on Eastern Parkway between Troy and Schenectady Avenues. Permits to expand the structure to seven stories are currently pending approval from the Department of Buildings. The new building would have 17 units, including a duplex penthouse.

The building at 90 Sullivan Place near Bedford Avenue was stalled by a Stop Work Order for nearly five years, but new permits were recently filed and work seems to have re-started. The building isn't in the best location—it's sandwiched between a gas station and an auto shop, across the street from the giant Ebbetts Field complex—so it will be interesting to see how the 28 units do when they finally come to market.

Plans were filed last September for a five-story, 25-unit building on a vacant lot at 1705 Dean Street near Utica Avenue. Empire State Management is the developer and the architect of record is DJLU Architects. [Photo]

Once upon a time a Robert Scarano-designed building was planned for 622 Grand Avenue, but that never came to be. Brownstoner noticed that work restarted at the site last September, and new permits for a four-story, 10-unit building were approved in February. The new architect of record is listed as Julien Flander, and the owner is the Sterling Group.

Not all development happening in the neighborhood is market rate—there are a handful of affordable housing developments as well. One of these is a large 16-story mixed use project at Utica Avenue and Lincoln Place. The first four-stories will be commercial, while the rest of the building will hold 87 studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom units, most of which will be targeted at families making 60 percent of the area medium income. It's being developed by the well-respected L&M Development Partners, and it will seek LEED-certification. [Via Brownstoner]

A few projects have come to market within the last year, which gives an indication of what we can expect in regards to pricing of these new developments. Last May, the Scarano-designed rental building at 818 Dean Street finally came to market, with rents ranging from $2,400 for a one-bedroom duplex to $4,500 for a two-bedroom with a private garden. This is on the western edge of the neighborhood, closer to Prospect Heights, so these prices are probably on the higher end of the scale for new projects. That said, the prices did seem some chops (that $4,500 unit dropped to $4,333), but only two units remain on the market.

Also on the western edge of the neighborhood, there's 355 Saint Marks Avenue, a four-unit condo building. Greenstone designed the building with eco-friendly features, and two of the units, which all feature private outdoor space, sold to sponsors. The available units are a 1,655-square-foot 3BR/2.5 asking $1.75 million, and a 2,372-square-foot 3BR/2.5 asking $2.375 million. Given that you can buy a townhouse in the neighborhood for that amount, the prices seem a bit ridiculous.

The new-to-market units at 875 Saint Marks Avenue, about a mile east of no. 355, are much more reasonably priced. The building is a stately old mansion across the street from the Brooklyn Children's Museum, and it features six brand new one- and two-bedroom condos. Prices start at $449,000, and the most expensive unit is a 1BR/2BA duplex asking $659,000. Two units have private outdoor space, and they are listed for $499K and $475K.
