Six-Story, Six-Unit Condominium Project Tops Out At 64 East 1st Street, East Village

In April of 2014, YIMBY reported on applications for a six-story, six-unit residential building at 64 East 1st Street, in the East Village, and construction began began on the project in August of 2015. EV Grieve now reports the structure has topped out. It now stands 60 feet above street level and measures a total 14,884 square feet. Each floor will contain a single condominium, except the ground-floor unit will have to share the floor with the residential lobby, and the sixth-floor unit will actually be a duplex apartment featuring a seventh-floor penthouse and private terrace. On average, the units will measure 2,183 square feet apiece. Dubbed 64 East, GF55 Partners is the designing the project and MGM Property Group is developing it. Completion can probably be expected later this year.

Schematics Posted Of Eight-Story, 12-Unit Mixed-Use Project At 42-44 Crescent Street, Long Island City

In July of 2014, YIMBY reported on applications for an eight-story, 12-unit mixed-use building at 42-44 Crescent Street, in Long Island City’s Queens Plaza section. Now, The Court Square Blog reports schematics have been posted of the project on site. Maspeth-based Angelo Ng + Anthony Ng Architects Studio is designing, although no official renderings have been released yet. The new building will encompass 15,338 square feet and will include 2,060 square feet of commercial space on the ground-floor for a restaurant. Residential units will begin on the second floor and should average 951 square feet apiece, which means either rentals or condos could be in the works. Flushing-based Andy Ho is the property owner and doing business under an anonymous LLC. The site’s old two-story building was demolished late last year and excavation appears imminent. Completion is expected in 2017.

Renderings Revealed For 12-Story Mixed-Use Proposal At 107-18 70th Road, Forest Hills

News broke earlier this month that a developer is looking to build a 12-story mixed-use building at 107-18 70th Road, in Forest Hills, and renderings of the project have since surfaced. According to DNAinfo, the new building is being designed by Morali Architects. As previously reported, the 120-foot-tall structure would require a variance from the city as zoning currently only allows for new developments of up to 80 feet. The developer, who remains anonymous, is planning to transfer air rights to the site, which is currently occupied by a strip of single-story restaurants, known as “Restaurant Row.” The project would have ground-floor retail space with new restaurants and residential units on the upper floors. A tentative completion date is being pegged at 2019.
