Located on the site of a former Budweiser plant, this ground-up development project consists of three new residential towers across two full city blocks that sit atop courtyard-shaped podiums. A new retail corridor is introduced along 2nd Street. A new road aligned to 55th Ave reconnects the urban grid along private land. The residences feature in-ceiling central air and triple-glazed windows, a first for a rental project in Long Island City. An extension to the nearby Hunter's Point South Park, designed by SCAPE landscape architects is included in the project along Newtown Creek.
