Michael Cox & Associates is named as the architect of record. They’ve produced a three-story building that will include a basement, with balconies on the second and third floors overlooking Greenview Avenue. A rooftop deck will add more outdoor space, where there will also be a pergola and stair enclosure. At the rear of the lot will be a detached three-car garage with a roof deck of its own.

The new construction will require demolition of the existing single-family residence on the property. Real estate records show the home, built in 1885, was purchased by the developer as Roscore Builders-Greenview LLC earlier this year for $675,000. The seller had owned the home since buying it for just $40,000 back in 1986.
