Through its land use application, Avery Hall is petitioning for zoning amendments to permit a mix of residential and commercial use, along with a mandatory inclusionary housing area designation for affordable housing.<\/p>\n<p>Avery Hall plans to build a 173,000-square-foot building with 250 units, 75 of which would be designated for affordable housing. The 18-story building would also include retail space along the avenue.<\/p>\n<p>The site is zoned for commercial use and has approval for hotel development, as Yoel Goldman once pursued a luxury project there.<\/p>\n<p>A spokesperson for the company did not respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n<p>In August, Avery Hall <a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/new-york\/2025\/08\/20\/avery-hall-snaps-up-yoel-goldmans-busted-crown-heights-hotel-site\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">paid $10.1 million<\/a> to buy the site out of bankruptcy, months after Goldman filed for protection of the site, valuing it at $14 million<\/p>\n<p>Goldman bought it in 2014 for $7 million and laid the foundation for a 100-key hotel designed by ODA, according to a bankruptcy filing. But when the pandemic hit, funding dried up, interest payments stopped and mechanic\u2019s liens piled up to more than $1.4 million.<\/p>\n<p>Goldman\u2019s company, All Year Holdings, was dismantled piece by piece after bankruptcy officers seized control of it in 2022 and sold off the assets; the Bedford Avenue site was a personal holding for Goldman.<\/p>\n<p>Brooklyn-based Avery Hall is active in several developments in the neighborhood. In April, Avery Hall, the Brodsky Organization and Monadnock Construction <a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/new-york\/2026\/04\/21\/developers-scoop-up-site-at-center-of-brooklyn-rezoning-fight\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">bought<\/a> a long-vacant development site at 962 Pacific Street and an adjacent property at 863 Dean Street on the border of Prospect Heights and Crown Heights, an assemblage sitting within a <a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/new-york\/2025\/05\/28\/nyc-city-council-approves-atlantic-avenue-rezoning\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">sweeping rezoning<\/a> on Atlantic Avenue.<\/p>\n<p>The joint venture plans to build a mixed-use project in line with the city\u2019s Atlantic Avenue Mixed Use Plan.
