New renderings of a five-story residential building in Far Rockaway reveal what could take shape on the neighborhood’s southern shore. The proposed site at 2-29 Beach 14th Street measures approximately 11,211 square feet. Although permits were originally filed in November 2017, renderings have only now surfaced.
Permits have been filed for an eight-story residential building at 150-13 89th Avenue in Jamaica, Queens. Located at the intersection of 153rd Street and 89th Avenue, the lot is near the Sutphin Boulevard subway station, serviced by the F train. Chetrit Group is listed as the owner behind the applications. In 2015, YIMBY reported the same developer’s proposed redevelopment of Mary Immaculate Hospital on the block-long site, a 16-story rental complex with 339 apartments.
Permits have been filed for a five-story residential building at 110-12 101st Avenue in Richmond Hill, Queens.

A recent split 2-2 vote by the Board of Standards and Appeals upheld the city’s Department of Buildings’ approval for 50 West 66th Street, which will become the Upper West Side’s tallest building. Local NIMBY group Landmark West was defeated in its assertion that developer Extell wrongly used mechanical space to bump up the 775-foot-tall height of the project without taking into consideration floor area restrictions.
Construction has topped out on Maverick, a two-building, 210-foot-tall residential project at 215 West 28th Street in Chelsea. Located between Seventh Avenue and Eighth Avenue, the 20-story development is designed by DXA Architects and being developed by HAP Investments, and consists of abutting buildings spanning over 300,000 square feet. The structurally identical reinforced concrete superstructures are addressed as 215-219 West 28th Street and 221-229 West 28th Street.
