The Department of City Planning is now reviewing proposals to construct an eight-story mixed-use building at 146-93 Guy R. Brewer Boulevard in Springfield Gardens, Queens. Before the project can break ground, the agency must approve a zoning map and text amendments that would permit the construction of a mixed-use residential property, which would exceed currently allowable density and use-type. The project will also be subject to an 18-month Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP) to elicit feedback from local community groups and residents.
Designed by M S Savani Architects, the property will contain 4,000 square feet of commercial space, 33,500 square feet of residential area, and 46 parking spaces. The residential area will yield a collection of 42 apartments that range from studios up to two-bedroom units. A total of 13 units will be income-restricted affordable units reserved for households and individuals at or below 80 percent area median income.
Renderings of the building’s façade illustrate a mix of gray and tan metal paneling, glass enclosed balconies, and a punched window system with visible ventilation grills.
The development site is a 10,750-square-foot corner at the intersection of Guy R. Brewer Boulevard and 147th Avenue and is currently occupied by a car rental business. If approved, Ranbir LLC, the developer responsible for the project, expects the building to be completed by 2024 following an environmental review and the ULURP process.

Oh I know what color goes good with charcoal and silver…
Flesh!
This location isn’t occupied by a car rental business. It’s an empty land.
