The project’s developer is Palin Enterprises, according to building permits. They are also behind the 40-story residential tower at 21 India Street, just a few steps down the block.

Ismael Leyva Architects, the same firm working on 21 India Street, designed the building.

The site was formerly the home of Metro Shipping & Warehousing Inc., which sold the building in 2006.

Preference will be given to residents of Community Board 1, municipal employees and applicants with visual, hearing or mobility impairments. The building, which is smoke-free, includes a community room, interior courtyard and a laundry room on every floor.
