Crossed-Braced Commercial Topper May Be Coming to Queens Plaza

The larger lot next door, 23-10 Queens Plaza South, continues to hold a 5-story industrial loft building, but a newly-surfaced rendering shows larger plans may be in store.

Dynamic's website says the rendered office block is designed by SLCE, who were also the architects behind 1 QPS Tower next door. The description says the tower would rise 24 stories and encompass 400,000 square feet of office space — making it one of the largest blocks of commercial space in the neighborhood.

Though new development in LIC's Queens Plaza district has been overwhelmingly residential, the successful lease-ups of Tishman Speyer's Two Gotham Center and The JACX may reassure developers that Long Island City is prime for more commercial back-office space.

The site overlooks the elevated Queensboro Plaza subway station which provides supreme access to Manhattan via the 7, N, and W lines. Like its big rental sister, future occupants would enjoy terrific views of the '59th Street Bridge' and Midtown skyline.
