The owner of the former Teamsters building on Jackson Avenue will soon be demolishing the one-story structure.

Demolition permits were filed by Circle F Capital, the owners of the 22-43 Jackson Avenue site, with the Department of Buildings December 22. The permits were approved.

The site is currently home to a one-story, 6,400 square-foot building, which had been the headquarters of the local 808 pension and health fund for more than two decades. The site is across the street from the former 5 Pointz building.

Circle F Capital is planning a 10- or 11-story mixed-use building with residential units and ground floor retail, reported the The Real Deal earlier this year.

The firm has yet to file its plans with the Buildings Dept.
