Rendering credit: MarvelOne of the last remaining vacant waterfront parcels in Long Island City will become nearly 1,000 new homes, a majority of which will be priced below market rate. Designed by Marvel, the development will also include community facility space, including a daycare and a workforce development center, an indoor community pool, and new commercial retail. The Department of Housing Preservation and Development selected the team after releasing a request for proposals (RFP) in June 2025. According to the city, many residents across various income levels struggle to find housing in the neighborhood, especially families with children. In response, local nonprofit Commonpoint Queens will lease and operate an affordable daycare, workforce development center, and community pool within the development.
