The Prusik Group and Taconic Investment Partners are planning a massive mixed-use complex in Coney Island, joining a string of other new projects underway in the neighborhood.

New York YIMBY on Wednesday revealed renderings of 1709 Surf Avenue, a three-block development that will comprise 1,000 apartments, 150,000 square feet of retail space and 80,000 square feet of offices. The project is expected to be completed in 2020, though plans have not officially been filed with the city’s Department of Buildings.
