540 Lenox Avenue, New York, NY, 10037

Description

540 Lenox Avenue, also known as the Harlem Temple Corps Community Center, is a 32,892 SF two-story property located on a block-front lot on Lenox Avenue between West 137th and 138th Streets in Harlem. The property is located within an R7-2 district, meaning there are substantial air rights available. The maximum residential FAR is 4.00x, which would yield 79,936 SF of residential SF, and the maximum community facility ZFA is 6.50x FAR, which would yield 129,896 SF. The community center is currently operated by the Salvation Army, offering an on-site lunch program, a variety of services including casework and financial assistance, recreational and educational programs, a Boys & Girls Club, emergency food and shelter, and a place of worship. The Salvation Army is looking for a partner to assist in the redevelopment of Harlem Temple, ideally, delivering back 30,000 – 50,000SF of Community Facility space for community programs and office space. This would then allow a developer the opportunity to assist in broader projects focused on the modernization of the Salvation Army’s facilities city-wide.
