Permits have been filed for the construction of an 8-story mixed-use building with 165 residences on the vacant lot at 35-10 12th St. in Astoria.

The proposed building would be 80 feet tall and yield 130,546 square feet, with 109,887 square feet designated for residential space for the 165 units. With an average unit scope of 665 square feet, it is most likely these units will be rentals.

Commercial space will account for the remaining 20,659 square feet of the building. Additionally, the property would feature 54 enclosed parking spaces. It is also within close proximity to Ravenswood Playground, Rainey Park, Long Island City High School, P.S. 111: Jacob Blackwell, Growing Up Green I Middle School and P.S. 76Q: The William Hallet School. There are also nearby bus stops for the Q66, Q69 and Q103 lines.

The building applications were submitted by Yisroel Greenfeld of Sunshine Plaza LLC. The architect of record for this project is listed as the Vaja Group.

Since the property, located between 35th and 36th Avenues, is just a vacant lot, demolition permits will almost certainly not be needed during the construction process. An estimated completion date for this construction has not yet been provided.

IBX Stop by Stop: The proposed light rail rolls through Middle Village, near a ‘crown jewel’ of Queens parks

Sep. 3, 2025 By Barbara Russo-Lennon

As the IBX moves south from Maspeth’s Grand Avenue, the proposed light rail line’s third stop is Eliot Avenue in northern Middle Village, a mostly serene, tree-dense neighborhood of single-family homes that has virtually had the same personality since the 1950s. Public transportation is limited in this part of Queens, but the IBX – also known as the Interborough Express – would give residents of this suburban-like town more access to and from the area.
