NEW YORK | 25-01 Queens Plaza | 311 FT | 26 FLOORS
Demolition Wraps Up At 25-01 Queens Plaza North In Long Island City, Queens
Quote:
The rendering in the main photo is oriented looking east and shows the massing composed of a full-block multi-story podium rising into to a broad tower. The façade is composed of a dark brick façade that envelopes all four sides of the podium and the wide elevations of the tower. The narrow ends of the upper levels are clad fully in glass, with a column of stacked balconies. These western-facing balconies will provide occupants with prime views of the East River and Manhattan skyline.
In exchange for a 20 percent floor area bonus, Grub Properties will replace the old subway entrance on the northern side of the Queensboro Plaza station, expand the staircase, and install a street-level elevator for ADA accessibility. The MTA is also installing two additional elevators, one that connects to the station’s mezzanine and another that will provide access to the mezzanine and the 7 train platforms directly above. Below is a close-up rendering from the City Planning Commission of these improvements.
25-01 Queens Plaza North is slated to be built in one phase over the course of 42 months from demolition to completion.
