99-unit tower filed for 1756 Weeks Avenue in the Bronx

Plans were filed with the Department of Buildings for a 99-unit, 15-story residential building at 1756 Weeks Avenue in the Bronx’s Mount Hope section, a new-building application submitted October 27, 2026 and still pending plan examination assignment. The owner of record on the filing is Weeks BDS LLC, a single-purpose entity that has not been resolved to a named real estate operator.

Why it matters

Mount Hope sits just west of the Grand Concourse, a corridor that has drawn a steady run of mid-rise multifamily filings as owners test what the neighborhood’s zoning will support. A 99-unit building at 15 stories is large for the immediate block, and the filing adds to the pipeline of Bronx multifamily product working through DOB review ahead of any 2026 construction season.

For operators tracking the borough, the filing is a marker of site assembly and architectural work already completed well before shovels are in the ground. The gap between a DOB filing date and a permit issuance date is where plans get tested against zoning, fire, and energy code, and it is the number worth watching next on this site.

The numbers

The application lists a 56,025.1 square foot new building rising 15 stories with 99 proposed dwelling units, filed under the city’s 2022 construction code. The job sits on Block 2797, Lot 13 (BBL 2027970013), with building identification number 2007440. Architect of record is Nikolai Katz, filed through Express Filing Inc.

What’s next

The DOB NOW record lists the filing status as pending CPE/ACPE assignment under standard plan examination, meaning the application has not yet cleared a reviewing examiner. No permit has been issued and no construction has started. The next verifiable step is permit issuance, which this site will track through the same DOB NOW dataset before reporting any construction timeline as confirmed.
