Construction has surpassed the halfway mark on Centric, a 12-story residential building at 58-01 Queens Boulevard in Woodside, Queens. Designed by Tang Studio Architect and developed by New Empire Corporation, the structure will yield 131 condominium units in one- to three-bedroom layouts, as well as a collection of townhomes. The property was acquired for $16.2 million and is bound by 44th Avenue to the north, Queens Boulevard to the south, and 58th Street to the west.
Recent photographs show the complex reinforced concrete superstructure built to the sixth floor and supported by a dense network of wooden formwork and metal shoring. The building could potentially top out by the end of May, and façade installation will likely begin shortly thereafter.

The property was formerly occupied by a Walgreens and a parking lot, as seen in the below Google Street View image from before the start of construction.

The rendering in the main photo shows a complex massing featuring numerous stepped setbacks and protruding balconies across the exterior. The façade is composed of light gray brick surrounding floor-to-ceiling windows, and the building culminates in a flat parapet.
Residential amenities will include a lobby, bicycle room, an enclosed parking garage, fitness center, storage, laundry facilities, a pet grooming station, and a podcast/music studio on the first level. The second level will house a co-working center, a game room, dining room, and an expansive outdoor terrace with a pickleball court, mini golf, a jungle gym, and an outdoor kitchen. The rooftop will feature a terrace with pergola, dining and lounge furniture, planters, and outdoor grilling stations.
One Realty Global & Bethoney Shen at Nest Seekers is handling sales and marketing for Centric.
The nearest subway from the development is the 7 train at the elevated 61st Street-Woodside station, which is situated directly above the Woodside station on the Long Island Rail Road.
58-01 Queens Boulevard is anticipated to be completed next spring.

When I was viewed in the fore structure, increasing stepped setbacks with its real so augmented all directions: Thanks to Michael Young.
The original design had much more interesting brickwork. This is kind of disappointing but still not bad.
I like the terraced setbacks and balconies, etc. Plus the rooftop community garden area, to me, is something every bldg should employ/utilize,etc, nice work!
Definitely an improvement over what was there.
This is making my ADHD meds work overtime.
