Permits have been filed for a ten-story mixed-use building at 161-11 132nd Avenue, in Rochdale, Queens.

The organization is dedicated to creating affordable housing, educating, advocacy, and workforce development.

90 parking spaces will be included on-site. Classrooms will be included in the cellar and unspecified community facility space will be located on the ground floor.
SMA Architects is responsible for the design.
Demolition permits have not been filed, and the estimated completion date has not been announced.
