Late last year, YIMBY reported on permits for a small three-story, two-unit residential project at 21-11 74th Street, located on the western end of East Elmhurst. Now, permits have recently been amended to build a structure with three units. The building will measure 3,315 square feet in total, and full-floor units will average 1,105 square feet apiece, indicative of condominiums. Konstantine Drakopoulos is the property owner and Queens-based Gerald Caliendo is the architect of record. The site’s former 1.5-story home was demolished last year.
