Smile NEW YORK | 41-62 Bowne Street | FT | 14 FLOORS

Project: 41-62 Bowne Street



Quote:
The 14-story development will have two stories of retail and a school, topped by eleven stories of apartments. The residential portion will be set back, but the first two floors appear to break the street wall, extending past the facade of the pre-war apartment block next door.

The design will be fairly simple and modern, incorporating white panelling, large windows, and plenty of glassy balconies on each of the upper floors. Angelo & Anthony Ng’s Architects Studio, based in Maspeth, is responsible for the design and the rendering.

When construction wraps, there will be 84 apartments, an 11,400-square-foot school, and 12,000 square feet of retail. Those apartments will be distributed across 64,162 square feet of residential space, creating relatively small condos with an average size of 760 square feet. Little condos are pretty common in Flushing, where Chinese buyers often value affordability more than space. But everywhere else in the city, these apartments would be rentals.
