SLCE Architects designed The Bold, while Tamara Eaton Design did the interior design. Modern Spaces is the exclusive leasing and marketing firm for this development.

“The Bold marks a pivotal moment in the redevelopment of Jackson Avenue, offering sleek, condo-style finishes tailored for discerning renters,” Modern Spaces Founder and CEO Eric Benaim said. “With Jackson Avenue’s rise as a prime residential and retail corridor, residents of The Bold will enjoy easy access to Trader Joe’s, Target, Jacx&Co Food Hall and Warby Parker, along with spectacular tower views and an amenity collection that rivals those of a condo building.”

Teen gang member indicted on murder charge for shooting death of motorist in St. Albans: DA

A Queens grand jury indicted a 15-year-old boy on charges of murder, criminal possession of a weapon, and other related crimes for allegedly shooting and killing a motorist in St. Albans last month.

The alleged gang member was arraigned Tuesday in Queens Supreme Court on a five-count indictment for discharging a 9 mm handgun multiple times following a dispute with a rival gang member. William Alcindor, 66, of Cambria Heights, who was not the intended target, was shot once in the head and twice in the body as he drove past the location in his Nissan Rogue. The car then slammed into a nearby pedestrian.
