Permits have been filed for a 12-story mixed-use residential building at 130 East 177th Street in Mount Hope, The Bronx. Located between Morris Avenue and Grand Concourse, the interior lot is two blocks south from the Tremont Avenue subway station, serviced by the B and D trains. FHMC Inc, a third-party real estate and financial arm of The Postgraduate Center for Mental Health, is listed as the owner behind the applications.

The proposed 123-foot-tall development will yield 55,987 square feet, with 52,597 square feet designated for residential space and 3,390 square feet for community facility space on the ground floor. The building will have 78 residences, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 674 square feet. The steel-based structure will also have a cellar, six enclosed parking spots, and a 41-foot-long rear yard.

Minkuk Kim of Marin Architects is listed as the architect of record. A rendering reveals a pale concrete massing with an even grid of windows along East 177th Street-facing elevation, as well as several stepped setbacks for private outdoor space. The rooftop also appears to have a terrace although it is not clear if its communal or private.

Demolition permits will likely not be needed as the lot is vacant. An estimated completion date has not been announced.
