SSJ Development unveils plan for Sheepshead Bay.

As part of its ongoing efforts to revitalize the Brooklyn waterfront, SSJ Development, LLC has announced plans for the development of 18 loft style apartments in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn.

The project, called The Riviera at Sheepshead Bay, is the latest in the developer's series of waterfront projects under The Riviera brand in New York and New Jersey.

"We are creating a sleek, open new building and a public waterfront park at the run-down site of a waterfront health club," said Stephen S. Jemal, president of SSJ Development, LLC.

The $15 million investment at 2434 Knapp St. calls for the development of 18 units of loft-style one. two- and three-bedroom apartments ranging from 1,000 to 1,500 s/f.

With floor to ceiling windows that will take in the sweeping waterfront views, professional-grade kitchens, luxurious master bedroom suites with balconies and all modern amenities, each home will provide its residents with an exceptional quality of life.

Located in a tranquil beach and fishing community that comes alive at night with a lively mix of restaurants, bars and theaters, The Riviera will offer its residents a wonderful respite from the active lifestyle of Sheepshead Bay, Jemal said.

The docks will provide a communal environment for residents, while the townhouse balconies and private yards will offer "secluded places to commune with the water, sea and air," Jemal said. In addition, SSJ Development plans to create a waterfront promenade stretching along the site.
