Song Lin, doing business as an anonymous Elmhurst-based company, has filed applications for two three-story, multi-family residential buildings at 94-28 – 94-30 51st Avenue, in Elmhurst. One will measure 3,840 square feet and contain three full-floor units, while the other will measure 3,360 square feet and contain two units, one spanning two floors and the second a single floor. Across both buildings, the apartments should average 964 square feet apiece, which means family-sized units are in the works. Chang Hwa Tan’s Flushing-based Tan Architect is the architect of record. The 50-foot-wide, 5,012-square-foot property is currently occupied by a two-and-a-half-story house. Demolition permits were filed in April. The site is located five blocks from the Grand Avenue-Newtown stop on the M and R trains.
