Permits have been officially filed for a new 4-story residential building at 3-06 Beach 68th Street in Arverne, Queens. The development will introduce 18 rental units to the area, signaling an expansion in housing options for residents.
The proposed structure will be 45 feet tall and span an area of 11,550 square feet. Each of the housing units is projected to have an average size of 641 square feet, with the majority designated as rental accommodations. A rear yard measuring 25 feet in length will also be a feature of the new building, allowing for outdoor space that complements the living units.
Conveniently located near the Beach 60th Street subway station, prospective residents will have easy access to public transportation via the A train. Additionally, the area is serviced by multiple bus lines, including the Q22, Q52-SBS, QM15, and QM17. This accessibility is a significant advantage for individuals commuting to other parts of the city.
Residents will benefit from the vibrant community surrounding the new development. Nearby features include Rockaway Beach and the scenic Rockaway Beach boardwalk, perfect for relaxation and recreational activities. Additionally, the Brant Point Wildlife Sanctuary and Dubos Point Wildlife Sanctuary offer opportunities for nature enthusiasts. Other local attractions include Thursby Basin Park, Hammel Playground, and the educational facility P256Q.
The application for the building was submitted by Benjamin Mendlowitz, with architectural designs managed by Leandro Nils Dickson (LND) Architect. As of now, demolition permits for the existing structure on-site have not yet been filed, indicating that the project is still in its preliminary planning phase.
No estimated completion date has been provided for this project, leaving future timelines unclear for both prospective tenants and local community members. As the building process progresses, updates are expected that will provide further details on the construction status and impact on the neighborhood.
This new residential initiative reflects ongoing efforts to enhance housing availability in the Arverne area, as rising demand continues to shape the community landscape. Local stakeholders will be watching closely as this project moves forward and takes shape in the bustling Queens neighborhood.
