Permits have been filed for an eight-story residential building at 117-03 Curzon Road, in Kew Gardens, Queens. The neighborhood first opened in the mid 19th Century as one of seven planned garden communities in Queens. The site is six blocks away from the Kew Gardens Train Station, serviced by the Long Island Railroad. Eight blocks away is the 121st Street Subway Station, serviced by the J and Z trains. EEC Group INC. will be responsible for the development.
The 80-foot tall structure will yield 17,880 square feet of space, with 14,500 square feet dedicated to residential use. Twenty apartments will be created, averaging 725 square feet apiece, indicating rentals. Tenants will have access to a laundry room, lobby foyer, and rooftop terrace.
T.F. Cusanelli and Filletti Architects will be responsible for the design.
Demolition permits were filed in early December for the existing three-story structure. The estimated completion date has not been announced.

Please pardon me for using your space: Properties beautiful in daytime, but night I’m not sure in Google Maps.
A shame to see a nice old house like that torn down but the owners got $1.5M for their property.

I lived at that house one year with the Curtis family and went to high school nearby. It is a pity to have that house demolished, but its happening all over. Now I live in Argentina, my country, but I miss those days
