HAP filed an application with the Department of Buildings today for a permit to construct a mixed-use building at the site, according to DOB records. The plans call for 77 apartments, automated parking and fitness rooms in the cellar, retail on the ground floor and a recreation space on the roof.

The architect on the project is WASA/Studio A, formerly called Wank Adams Slavin Associates. New renderings and more details on the project will be released in a month or two, according to Philip Stevanovic, project manager at HAP.

HAP bought 215-219 West 28th Street in September 2013 for $50.3 million, according to property records. Smithfield restaurant and a parking lot formerly occupied the site.
