REVEALED: Lions Group Developing Complementary Skyscrapers in Long Island City



http://ny.curbed.com/


FEBRUARY 19, 2015
BY ONDEL HYLTON

Just north of Long Island City‘s Court Square and its once lonely Citigroup Building, the Long Island-based Lions Group will erect a complementary pair of residential towers fronting opposite sides of Jackson Avenue. Sensibly dubbed Jackson East (26-32 Jackson Avenue) and Jackson West (27-01 Jackson Avenue), the project is just one of the more than two dozen high-rise developments underway in LIC’s Court Square / Queens Plaza area.

While details remain scarce, renderings recently posted on the Lions Group’s website depict that the taller east tower will rise nearly 40 stories while the shorter west building will be about 30.

Designed by the Queens-based Raymond Chan Architects, the towers’ facades are an eclectic mix of glass and brick, with building corners glazed with floor-to-ceiling windows and balconies siding many mid- and upper-floor units.

The east tower will replace a one-story auto repair shop, while the west tower is to supplant a GasTrac gas station that recently shuttered. Construction permits for the west tower were filed with the Department of Buildings back in December, but called for a smaller 15-story building containing 88 units.

While still unclear if the towers will contain rentals or condos, they will rise from a hotbed of development activity in Long Island City. Across the elevated Dutch Kills Street (a vehicular High Line of sorts that streamlines traffic to and from the Queensboro Bridge) is the site of Rockrose’s conversion of the Eagle Electric Warehouse and its accompanying 54-story tower. TF Cornerstone’s 50-story mega-rental at 43-25 Hunter Street is already underway across 43rd Avenue, and along Purves Street, a string of recent condo and rental mid-rises that include the Vere Condominium, Purves II, and Lions Group’s own Vantage Purves and the Vista, have already created one of the district’s first residential enclaves.

Demolition begins at Gas Trac at 27-01 Jackson Avenue
March 13, 2015
CtSqLIC

Things have been moving along at the old site of Gas Trac at 27-01 Jackson Avenue since the gas station closed down in January.1 Last month, construction crews installed a chain link fence on the site. When we walked by the site last week, we noticed construction vehicles inside beginning demolition on the property, as seen below.

Last year, the 9,200-square-foot lot at 27-01 Jackson Avenue sold for $11,600,000.2 In December, New York YIMBY spotted plans filed with the department of buildings calling for a mixed-used build with 15 stories and 88 units totaling 72,328 square feet and 7,090 square feet of commercial space.3

But then in February, renderings were released for 27-01 Jackson Avenue, and the site across the street, 26-32 Jackson Avenue, which differed greatly from the permits filed. Here’s what Queens Brownstoner had to say:4 “The buildings are called Jackson East, at 26-32 Jackson Avenue, and Jackson West, at 27-01 Jackson Avenue. Designed by Raymond Chan Architects, the towers will each rise 30 and 40 stories. […] No details on any construction timeline, or whether the units will go rental or condo.”

Permits approved at 27-01 Jackson Avenue

In mid-October, demolition finished on 27-01 Jackson Avenue, former home of a Gas Trac.1 Expect work on the site to begin soon, with the Department of Buildings approving build permits on Oct. 20. Permits call for 7,090 square feet of commercial space and 65,238 square feet of residential space. The building will rise 15 stories and house 88 units.2

It’s worth noting that the approved permits are in contrast to previous renderings uncovered by 6sqft, where the projected build was supposed to be 30 stories.3

It’s worth noting that the approved permits are in contrast to previous renderings uncovered by 6sqft, where the projected build was supposed to be 30 stories.

Also keep in mind that, as is sometimes the case, what is shown on current building permits doesn't always reflect the ultimate size of what will eventually be built with further revisions in the process. We'll just have to wait for a render to be sure.

Tishman Speyer has permits approved as construction begins at 28-07 Jackson Avenue

Tishman Speyer has started construction for two commercial towers located at 28-07 Jackson Avenue. Permits were approved on Oct. 21, calling for 1,450,331 square feet of commercial space with a FAR of 11.98. Here is more from New York YIMBY, who was the first to spot permits back in June.1

It will consist of two towers, named One and Three Gotham Center. There will also be 250 parking spots, spread between the first two floors and a mezzanine level sandwiched in between them. Parking isn’t required in Long Island City, but zoning rules for the area around Queens Plaza cap the maximum amount of non-residential parking at 250 spaces.

Aren't those permits in relation to this site?

[chris08876]

I actually am not 100% sure. They are so close to each other address wise given the close proximity with so many other projects in LIC.

Edit:

I think we have two different threads for the same project.

From a couple of posts above:

It will consist of two towers, named One and Three Gotham Center. There will also be 250 parking spots, spread between the first two floors and a mezzanine level sandwiched in between them. Parking isn’t required in Long Island City, but zoning rules for the area around Queens Plaza cap the maximum amount of non-residential parking at 250 spaces.

Unless I'm just confusing myself and misinterpreting it?

Fetner, Lions Group and city take next steps for LIC affordable housing complex

Fetner Properties and Lions Group NYC are moving forward with their plans for a new mixed-use complex in Long Island City.

The partners pre-filed an application with the city to convert a vacant lot at 27-01 Jackson Avenue into a 27-story tower with 139 residential units, a portion of which will be affordable, and retail space on the first floor.

The project, which will also have a second building, is a partnership with the city’s Department of Housing Preservation and Development and the Department of Citywide Administrative Services.

The building’s total size would cover some 191,700 square feet, with 91 parking spaces across the first three levels and residential units starting on the sixth floor.

Fetner and Lions did not immediately return requests for comment.

The tower is one of two planned as part of the project for Jackson Avenue, located near the Queensboro Bridge approach ramps.

Plans for the other, at 26-32 Jackson Avenue, have yet to be filed with the building department. That building will be 49 stories tall with about 249 market-rate and 112 affordable apartments.

Both buildings went through the city’s Uniform Land Use Review Procedure, receiving final approval in December.

27-01 Jackson Avenue Awaits Construction In Long Island City

Construction activity has yet to begin at 27-01 Jackson Avenue, the site of a planned 27-story building in Hunters Point, Queens. Fetner Properties under American Lion, LLC is the owner behind the permit applications for the proposed 336-foot-tall mixed-use project, for which SLCE Architects is listed as the architect of record. The property is located at the corner of Jackson Avenue and 43rd Avenue.

Green sidewalk boards surround the entire perimeter of the vacant lot. No construction vehicles or equipment are visible, and it is unclear when activity will commence. The 3D Google Earth view shows the square-shaped site scattered with cars and scraps.

Renderings were released some time ago for 27-01 Jackson Avenue, as seen above, though they may be outdated at this point. Nonetheless, its planned height and bulk would certainly contribute to the growing vertical density of Long Island City. The superstructure will span 151,141 square feet, with 139,891 square feet designated toward residences and 11,250 square feet for commercial use. There will also be a cellar, ground-floor retail space, and 91 enclosed parking spaces spread across the first three stories. Homes will average 1,006 square feet and begin on the sixth floor. A portion of the total inventory is reserved for affordable housing, but an exact figure remains unknown.

The closest subways are 7, N, and W trains at Queensboro Plaza and the E, M, and R trains at Queens Plaza. There are elevated vehicular ramps that rise on the eastern side of the property and an abutting low-rise structure, operating as the Hyatt Place Long Island City, immediately to the north.

A completion date for 27-01 Jackson Avenue has not been announced.

[BuildThemTaller]

New construction fencing has started to go up along Jackson Ave in front of 27-01 Jackson Ave / Jackson West. There is a slew of new permits posted to the fencing, although I haven't been able to read them yet. I'll see if I can take a pic of the space itself sometime soon.

[BuildThemTaller]

New construction fencing and now this has been added to Jackson West, AKA 27-01 Jackson Ave. This appears to be the schematics for the 27-story tower that is about the be constructed. Doesn't look too exciting but will help add to the growing density along the strip.

Bank Leumi USA Leads $95M Loan on Long Island City Apartment Tower


BY ANDREW COEN
NOVEMBER 22, 2021

Fetner Properties and the Lions Group have landed $95 million of construction financing to build a new 27-story multifamily building in Long Island City, Queens, Commercial Observer can first report.

Bank Leumi USA spearheaded the loan, alongside Leumi Partners and Israeli Discount Bank for the joint venture’s 27-01 Jackson Avenue project under the name American Lions that will comprise 164 units with 30 percent designated as affordable.

”This milestone represents the cumulative efforts of colleagues and professionals across many disciplines over a period of years, all against the headwinds of national pandemic, and we are grateful to all,” Hal Fetner, president and CEO of Fetner Properties, said in a statement. “We are proud to be part of New York City’s economic recovery with the start of this project, and more importantly we look forward to meeting the housing needs of New Yorkers from a wide range of economic backgrounds in the heart of Long Island City.”

The 27-01 Jackson Avenue development will represent the first project Fetner Properties has launched in Queens after building a number of properties throughout Manhattan. It is the first of a two-phase project for American Lions in concert with SLCE Architects that will include another tower across Jackson Avenue.
