The coronavirus pandemic did not stop companies from filing plans for major construction projects last month.
The top 10 largest projects in April totaled more square feet than any other month of the year: about 2.6 million. That compared to 1.9 million square feet in March, 1.7 million square feet in February and 1.3 million square feet in January.
Overall, the list for April was split between five projects in Manhattan, three projects in Brooklyn, one project in The Bronx and one project in Queens. No Staten Island projects made the cut last month.
The full list of Aprils top 10 biggest real estate projects is as follows:
1. 180 Ashland Place, BrooklynThis is the site of Rockrose Developments first large-scale project in Brooklyn, which will span about 418,000 square feet and stand 47 stories tall with 609 apartments and ground floor retail. Rockrose filed its plans just a few days after closing on the Fort Greene site also known as 98 Dekalb Avenue for $81 million from the Kotler family in an all-cash deal.
2. 180 East 125th Street, ManhattanGary Barnetts Extell Development filed plans for a low-rise office building spanning about 354,000 square feet on its East Harlem development site. The project will stand nine stories and 120 feet tall with ground floor retail and about 41,000 square feet of community space. Extell spent $70 million on the block-long assemblage, which is known as the Harlem Pathmark site. Sale of the Pathmark supermarket there sparked controversy, with some local residents saying they felt betrayed by seller Abyssinian Development Corporation for sacrificing their local grocery store.
3. 2440 Fulton Street, BrooklynThe Leser Group filed plans for a roughly 325,000-square-foot commercial building in Ocean Hill. It will stand six stories and 100 feet tall. Abraham Leser acquired the development site in 2015 for $33 million.

Retail will be part of the project, and the community facility will be for a nonprofit organization with sleeping accommodations, according to the filing.
7. 40 West 137th Street, ManhattanThe citys Department of Health filed plans for its new public health lab by the Harlem Hospital Center. It will span about 188,000 square feet and stand 10 stories tall.

8. 72 East 120th Street, ManhattanBFC Partners is planning a roughly 185,000-square-foot mixed-use project in Harlem, split between about 181,000 square feet of residential space and 4,000 square feet of commercial space.
