Next week Community Board Two will hold a public hearing in regards to a zoning change needed for a 12-story residential development at 11-55 49th Avenue. LIC Post shares all the details on this coming build: “Maddd Equities, a Floral Park firm, plans to start construction on the 140 apartment (28 to be affordable units) complex later this year. The development will also include 10,000 sqf. of ground-floor commercial/retail space and 100 accessory parking spaces.” The area, on the corner of 49th Avenue and 21st Street, is now used as a parking lot. The lot has a FAR of 5 on one portion and a FAR of 2 on another portion; the developers want to change the FAR to 5 across the entire site. To do so, the developers must go through a ULURP application, which includes a public hearing with the community board. After the board makes a recommendation, the proposal will go on to the Queens Borough President, the City Planning Commission and then finally the City Council for a vote.

If you’re interested in attending the hearing, it’s on Wednesday, March 19th, 6:30pm at the Academy for Careers in Television auditorium, 1-50 51st Avenue.
