In an exclusive reveal, renderings completed by Gerald J. Caliendo Architects offer a first look at a new mixed-use building in Long Island City, Queens. The development is located at 39-04 29th Street and will eventually top out at six stories or about 59 feet above ground.
BRP Companies has selected JLL Capital Markets as its partner in a joint venture equity agreement to finance the construction of Archers Towers in Jamaica, Queens. The project is valued at $286 million and will yield 605 rental units and a mix of residential amenities. Located at 163-05 Archer Avenue, the development will top out at 24 stories and comprise a total of 540,000 square feet. The residential component will be divided into 424 market-rate apartments and 181 mixed-income units. At this time, the specific income requirements or restrictions for the mixed-income units has not been revealed.
Construction may soon begin on a new 30,000-square-foot mixed-use building located near the World’s Fair Marina in East Elmhurst, Queens. The four-story development will take shape at 106-02 Astoria Boulevard and will eventually replace several private residences, associated yards, and parking spaces.
Permits have been filed for a nine-story mixed-use building at 19-19 Cornaga Avenue in Far Rockaway, Queens. Located between Beach 19th Street and Beach 20th Street, the interior lot is a short walk to the Far Rockaway-Mott Avenue subway station, serviced by the A train. Brisa Builders is listed as the owner behind the applications.
The Cove at 43-12 Hunter Street sits in the middle of Long Island City, Queens. The detailed grey-colored curtain wall of windows and metal panels cover the entire 18-story, reinforced concrete edifice. Right now the final touches remain on the ground-floor envelope, sidewalk, and interiors. SLCE Architects is the designer of the building and Slade Architecture is in charge of the interior design. Rockrose Development is the developer of the triangular site, which was previously purchased for $1 million back in 2006. The Cove will yield 123 rental units with 37 units being affordable homes, or roughly 30 percent of the total inventory.
