The Court Square Blog notes that excavation has recently begun at 28-02 – 28-06 42nd Road, in Long Island City, where Hiwin USA LLC is developing somewhat mysterious tower apparently slated for Fall 2017. Per signage, the renderings shown a large mixed-use building, and Joseph Sultana is designing.
Applications have been filed for a two-story, two-unit residential building measuring nearly 1,800 square feet at the vacant lot 146-45 22nd Avenue, in southern Whitestone. Frank Petruso is designing, and the lot previously accommodated a three-story structure, sometime demolished over the last few decades.
The Real Deal has learned that two developers have acquired the the three-story property assemblage spanning 21-03 – 21-09 Astoria Boulevard, on the western side of Astoria, for $7.5 million. The site boasts 49,000 square feet of building potential, and the new owners plan to develop at least a seven-story, 60-condo-unit mixed-use building with retail space.
It’s unusual to see thoughtful design for manufacturing space, but that’s exactly what YIMBY has here with this glass and steel structure coming to 50-02 97th Place, which will replace a low-slung warehouse in Corona, Queens.
Construction is booming in Long Island City, but it’s pretty unusual to find a new building with apartments and manufacturing space, like the one planned for 40-05 Crescent Street. Permits were filed back in September and approved last month for the five-story, 36,433-square-foot building.
