A new 26-story mixed-use tower is on deck for Long Island City, with permits filed this month for a concrete high-rise at 37-09 36th Avenue in Queens. The building would climb to roughly 285 feet and deliver about 243,359 square feet of floor area spread across residential, commercial and community uses. The tower portion is slated to hold 99 residences, as part of a broader site plan that would total nearly 198 dwelling units on the lot. Demolition filings for the low-rise building currently on the property are already in, and developers have not yet announced an estimated completion date.

While New York's design center has become even more concentrated in Tribeca in recent years, a handful of new galleries are bringing their energy to Long Island City, the Lower East Side, and the Meatpacking District. Interestingly, all four are not staking their survival on a gallery model alone; the majority of the new spaces featured here are reviving brick and mortar as an extension of their thriving businesses.

Long Island City, better known as LIC, has become one of the fastest-growing neighborhoods in New York. With its luxury high-rises, booming arts scene, and proximity to Manhattan, LIC has transformed into a hub for professionals, creatives, and entrepreneurs. Now, with licensed dispensaries opening across Queens, locals are asking: Where can I find Exotic Weed in Long Island City? Exotic Weed isn't your average cannabis.

"From a thriving industrial hub to a home for artists and entrepreneurs, Long Island City has led many lives over the years," Adams said in a statement. "Our OneLIC Plan will help Long Island City write the next great chapter in its history, making sure families can find an affordable place, businesses can find a good place to grow, and everyone can access and enjoy the waterfront throughout the neighborhood."
