In the middle of 2014, the six-story, 39-unit residential project began construction at 11-35 45th Avenue, in Long Island City, and today, the building is nearly finished, according to The Court Square Blog. The building has been topped-out for a while, but now the façade is mostly up, with work still ongoing on the roof and balconies. Units will average 769 square feet apiece, and completion is tentatively scheduled for next spring.
