Development Plan for Queens Plaza Municipal Garage
Consistent with the City's efforts to facilitate
development in Long Island City, the Economic Development
Corporation (EDC) issued a Request for Proposals
for development of the Queens Plaza Municipal Garage
in October 2000. The garage is located at the intersection
of Queens Plaza South and Jackson Avenue. Its public
parking capacity is 1,150 spaces and it also includes
180,000 square feet of commercial space. Ground
floor retail and office uses occupy a portion of
the Queens Plaza South frontage and all of the Jackson
Avenue frontage. Under the department's rezoning
proposal, an approximately 1.5 million square foot
building could be constructed on the site. Developers
of the site will be required to retain the public
parking on site.
