A New Jersey-based development company is proposing to build a 58-unit luxury apartment building on S. Hamilton St. off Dwight St., in Poughkeepsie. The site current is vacant, with the rental building that stood there having been demolished in 1973 after a fire struck in 1970. The site consists of approximately 3.378 acres according to the Clifton Park consulting firm Arico Associates, which has been retained to work on the project. The site has been partially cleared.
The applicant for the project is O’Neil Group Hamilton LLC, with an address of 241 Hudson St. in Hackensack, N.J. Also at that address is OneKey LLC, a building, general contracting and construction management firm. It says it works on new construction of low-, mid- and high-rise buildings and its website shows projects in New York City and New Jersey.
The proposal calls for a three-story building with 29 one-bedroom units and 29 two-bedroom units. The applicant describes the planned apartments as being in the luxury category. There would be a total of 109 parking spaces provided at the site. The developer said that under Poughkeepsie’s codes only 102 parking spaces would be required.
The applicant estimates that the project would cost $6 million and that with three-stories the building would would reach 40 feet in height.
