NEW YORK CITY — Dynamic Star has released details for One Fordham Landing, a 350,000-square-foot office building located in the University Heights neighborhood of The Bronx in New York City. The building will be the first of a larger mixed-use development, Fordham Landing, which is valued at $3.5 billion, according to Crain’s New York Business.
Located on West Fordham Road along the Harlem River, Fordham Landing will be developed in phases beginning with the segment Fordham Landing South. Alongside the recently announced office building, this initial phase will include 505 units of affordable and market-rate housing.
The multifamily and office portions of the project will share a 20,000-square-foot amenity space featuring community gardening areas, a pickleball court, lap pool, basketball court and fitness center. Plans for Phase I also include a landscaped public waterfront esplanade overlooking the Harlem River.
One Fordham Landing, which is scheduled for completion in 2025, will target medical and educational tenants. The building’s base will feature 28,000-square-foot floor plates with 18-foot ceiling heights, and the upper floors of the project will feature 10,000-square-foot floor plates.
The development is also set to include a new entrance and pedestrian bridge to the adjacent North University Heights Metro station. The development team for the project includes Perkins Eastman, MG Engineering, MPFP Landscape Architects, Lemay_id, LIVunLtd and CBRE’s Energy and Sustainability Services team. CBRE will also handle leasing for the space upon completion.
Detailed plans for the second phase of the development, Fordham Landing North, have not been announced, but are set to include office, residential and retail space.
Dynamic Star is a full-service real estate development, investment and marketing firm. The Connecticut-based company is also underway on a 400,000-square-foot office redevelopment in the Queens borough of New York City.
