New York YIMBY is reporting that permits have been filed for a 21-story mixed-use building at 35 West 125th Street between Fifth and Lenox. The location had a Rite Aid and 2 story commercial offices.

The proposed 195-foot-tall development will yield 119,064 square feet, with 110,477 square feet designated for residential space and 8,587 square feet for commercial space. The building will have 162 residences, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 681 square feet. The concrete-based structure will also have a cellar and a 30-foot-long rear yard.
