Permits have been filed for a 39-story residential building at 23-15 43rd Avenue in Long Island City, Queens. Located between 23rd Street and 24th Street, the lot is two blocks from the Court Square-23rd Street subway station, served by the E, G, M, and 7 trains. William Xu of Grand Construction and Development is listed as the owner behind the applications.
The proposed 446-foot-tall development will yield 268,204 square feet designated for residential space. The building will have 387 residences, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 693 square feet. The concrete-based structure will also have a cellar and 66 enclosed parking spaces.
Handel Architects is listed as the architect of record.
Demolition permits will likely not be needed as the lot is vacant. An estimated completion date has not been announced.
