30-46 Northern Blvd-self-storageLong Island City is getting a gigantic self storage center, at 30-46 Northern Boulevard. The Department of Buildings just issued this new building permit for the site, formerly an auto lot at 40th Avenue. It’ll be 12 stories and 49 feet tall. The permit also calls for 22,016 square feet of community space — according to the construction manager’s website, it will take up two full floors. Here’s what the building managers have to say about the construction process: “This project is located on a busy site adjacent to an above grade and below grade transit line. Due to this, an intricate support of excavation plan is required to facilitate the foundation plan. The foundation will supported by a Belloli pile system.” The building should be finished in one year.
