This is currently the tallest in Queens, but a side note on the tower that was the tallest in Queens for years...

Citi Logos Removed from One Court Square, Sign of the Times









July 9, 2020
By John Bolger

Quote:
The iconic Citi logos have been removed from the top of One Court Square, marking the end of an era in Long Island City.

Scaffolding was erected on the roof of the building late last month in order to facilitate the removal. The logo had adorned the top of the building ever since it opened.

According to Department of Buildings records, the signs are to be replaced with logos for Altice USA, a cable network service provider, which has been headquartered in the building since 2017. Altice owns several brands, including Optimum.

And the Brooklyn/Queens waterfront skylines have barely begun. The vast majority of waterfront land between LIC and downtown BK has yet to be developed, and basically the entire corridor is permitted for tall, high density towers.

Skyline Tower’s Crown Prepares For Cladding In Long Island City



Quote:
Construction is nearing the finish line on Long Island City‘s Skyline Tower, a 778-foot-tall residential skyscraper and the current holder of the title of the tallest structure in the outer boroughs. Nearly all of the reflective glass curtain wall has been installed on the 68-story building, with only the first two floors and the decorative crown awaiting the final cladding. Located at 23-15 44th Drive, the tower is designed by Hill West Architects and developed by United Construction & Development Group, FSA Capital, and Risland US Holdings LLC. Modern Spaces is the exclusive marketing and sales agency for the 802 residences, which are designed by Whitehall Interiors. The project is expected to cost $1 billion.

Recent photos from around the neighborhood show the nearly finished skyscraper clad in its blue-hued glass façade. The crown’s frame, which features flat and sloped sections, stands assembled. The upper floors on the eastern and northern elevations have been fully filled in since our last update in March. Besides the very top and bottom of the structure, the only other incomplete section of the curtain wall is the vertical strip behind the exterior hoist.

Residential units will cost between $500,000 to $4 million and provide some of the best views of the Manhattan skyline, stretching from Billionaires’ Row all the way down to One World Trade Center. The lack of any tall structures between Skyline Tower and Manhattan ensure that nearly all west-facing units will have uninterrupted vistas of the city. A host of subways, including the 7, G, E, M, N, R, and W trains can all be accessed at the nearby Court Square and Court Square-23rd Street stations. The Manhattan-bound roadways of the Queensboro Bridge are also a short drive from the property, as is the Queens Midtown Tunnel via 21st Street.

Skyline Tower should likely be completed before the end of the year.
