Brooklyn-based developer Tolib Mansurov is expanding his footprint in Park Slope with plans for an eight-story mixed-use building at 250 Flatbush Avenue. The approximately 35,400-square-foot project, recently filed with the New York City Department of Buildings, will feature 20 residential units and roughly 8,300 square feet of commercial space on the ground floor, accompanied by a 20-foot backyard. This marks another addition to Mansurov’s growing portfolio in the borough.
Mansurov acquired the site in February 2022 for about $7.5 million, according to city property records. The development will be designed by Alexander Zhitnik of Z Architecture, a firm known for its work on urban infill and mixed-use projects. Despite multiple requests for comment, representatives from Mansurov’s United Elite Group have remained silent regarding the new development.
The developer has been a notable figure in New York real estate news this year, partly due to his alleged involvement as a straw donor in former Mayor Eric Adams’ initial campaign. While the case was dismissed under the Trump administration in a controversial decision, Mansurov has continued to actively pursue real estate ventures in Brooklyn. Earlier this year, he filed plans for a 99-unit residential building at 67 Fourth Avenue, also in Park Slope.
In a parallel transaction this September, Mansurov sold six adjacent properties in the neighborhood to Borough Developers, a Williamsburg-based firm, for $24 million. The sale and ongoing projects indicate Mansurov’s strategic focus on Park Slope’s evolving residential and commercial market. This activity comes amid rising demand for mixed-use developments that blend living and retail spaces in Brooklyn’s desirable neighborhoods.
Mansurov’s ability to maintain momentum despite political scrutiny reflects the resilience and complexity of New York’s real estate scene, where developers often navigate legal and reputational challenges while shaping the city’s urban landscape.
