This view of the rising Hunters Point South development comes from the Pulaski Bridge. After the jump, check out close-up shots. SHoP Architects designed these two buildings at 1-50 50th Avenue (pictured right) and 1-55 Borden Avenue (left). 1-50 50th Avenue will rise 37 stories and will hold 619 affordable units, 13,739 square feet of retail space and a 220-unit parking garage. There will be 165 studio, 205 one-bedroom, 214 two-bedroom and 35 three-bedroom units. Over at 1-55 Borden Avenue, that building will rise 32 stories and hold 306 affordable units with 3,000 square feet of retail space. There will be 100 studio, 82 one-bedroom, 101 two-bedroom and 23 three-bedroom units. The buildings should be ready for occupancy in 2014 with construction finished in 2015.

  1. Agreed. Maybe the shuttle bus from the TF Cornerstone properties will make an extra stop at the E/M on 21st & 44th and Queensboro Plaza? That may help somewhat. Hopefully the second phase of HPS doesn’t get built for quite some time, to dealy the inveitable just a little longer.
