In January 2022, permits were filed to construct a 15-story 69-unit building at 2986 Third Avenue. The proposed development included 54,386 square feet of residential space and 23,897 square feet of commercial space, according to Marketproof. The new development replaced a house constructed in 1920 with two floors and 12,750 square feet of space. The home was sold in March 2022 for $1 million and demolition permits were issued in April 2022.
ACHS Management signed a $25.8 million construction contract for the 69-unit project in November 2022, according to PincusCo.
