Does Queens have any serious proposals for anything taller than this? I like it though, cool looking.
No, the FAA capped LIC at less than 800 ft. There were studies done for the City that had several supertall heights for a rezoning, but didn't pan out favorably for us. Having two major airports in Queens doesn't help as far as tall towers go.
