Permits have been filed for a 5-story, 26 unit apartment building in Astoria.

The building will likely be constructed at 32-72 41st St. The property is currently used as a parking lot.

The building will be 50 feet tall and 18,427 square feet. The structure will feature an 18 car garage at the cellar level, plus 12 outdoor parking spaces.

Residents will have access to a roof deck, as well as a storage space and laundry room in the cellar.

The location is a little more than a block away from the Steinway Street (E/M/R) subway station. The property is also five blocks from Kaufman Astoria Studios.

The property is owned by Astoria Properties, LLC. James Cleary Architecture is responsible for the design.

If you owned a nice piece of land in a good neighborhood, close to transportation and a few blocks from a movie studio, what you YOU build? Why would you build “affordable” housing? There are SO MANY people looking for upscale accommodations with amenities in western Queens. Wouldn’t YOU want to maximize the return on your investment? What is the incentive for builders to build “affordable” apartments?

Twenty people indicted in Queens-based $4.6M vehicle theft ring after three-year probe: DA

Twenty individuals were indicted and variously charged in a wide-ranging scheme to steal cars in Queens, throughout New York City and its suburbs, following a three-year investigation by the Queens District Attorney’s Office, the NYPD, and the New York State Police dubbed “Operation Hellcat,” into the criminal enterprise based in Queens.
