Developer Charles Wurzberger Plans 12-Story Mixed-Use Building in Prospect Lefferts Gardens
Plans for a 12-story mixed-use building have been filed for 331 Maple Street in Prospect Lefferts Gardens, Brooklyn, with developer Charles Wurzberger at the helm.
Permits have been filed for a 12-story mixed-use building at 331 Maple Street in Prospect Lefferts Gardens, Brooklyn. The lot, located between Nostrand Avenue and New York Avenue, is near the Sterling Street subway station, served by the 2 and 5 trains. According to public records, the owner behind the project is Charles Wurzberger of Candor Capital One LLC.
The proposed building will span 140,000 square feet and will feature a mix of residential and commercial space. The residential component will consist of approximately 200 units, while the ground floor will include 20,000 square feet of retail space. Additionally, the building will have a community facility on the second floor and a rooftop terrace for residents.
While Wurzberger may be the listed owner, it's worth noting that Candor Capital One LLC has a history of using LLCs to mask the true developers behind their projects. This tactic is often used to avoid negative publicity and scrutiny from the public and press.
As with many developments in New York City, there is already pushback from the community. Some residents are concerned about the potential impact on the neighborhood's character and infrastructure. However, it's clear that Wurzberger is not concerned about the community's concerns, as he has a history of pushing forward with controversial projects.
According to a source familiar with the project, Wurzberger is confident that the 12-story building will be approved, as he has close ties to local politicians and officials. This raises questions about the level of influence and
