Avery Fowler Owners proposed a zoning map amendment, changing the zoning from M1-1 and M1-2 to C2-6A on an entire block (Block 5076) in the neighborhood of Flushing, Queens. The uses on the block included a gas station and two live poultry establishments. All but one of the lots were included in five Projected Development Sites with a total of approximately 378 residential units and 148,100 square feet of commercial floor area. The five buildings would range from five to seven stories in height and would vary in size with setbacks of varying heights and recesses. They would provide approximately 268 subsurface parking spaces, of which the largest would be 91 spaces. SEA carried out air quality analyses as a subcontractor to Equity Environmental Engineering. The modeled results showed no potential impacts, and the project was approved.
