The building's mechanical floors have topped out, and only the bulkhead is left until the structure reaches its highest point.

From my New York YIMBY article











October 2015



vs February 2016

42-12 28th Street tops out

Quote:
When we last checked in on 42-12 28th Street back in March, we noted that signage had begun to appear on the site, and construction was on the verge of topping out.When we checked in on the site last week, we saw that signage had finished, directing interested parties to visit tower28nyc.com. Also, the building is now topped out, officially becoming Queens’ tallest building (for now).

When all is said and done, the project will rise to be 58 stories and house 477 units. The building will rise 596 feet, and amenities include ground-floor retail, storage, bike storage, parking, a third-floor pool, gym and roof terraces on the 45th and 58th floors

“A View from the Top”




The view of the Manhattan skyline from the observation floor of 28 on 28.


BY MICHAEL STAHL
April 07, 2016


Quote:
History was made last month as the tallest building in New York City outside of Manhattan, Tower 28 in Long Island City, was topped off. Douglas Partrick, owner of Heatherwood Communities, the development firm behind the luxury rental building, took in the views from the 58th floor that same day for the first time.

He saw all of the area’s bridges, every inch of the city’s iconic skyline, the Statue of Liberty, and ships sailing the Atlantic Ocean—and it wasn’t even a completely clear day.

Formerly dubbed 28 on 28th, Partrick says the building’s construction is running right on schedule, with occupancy set to begin in mid to late fall. When it does, those fortunate enough to secure an apartment at Tower 28 will be able to enjoy the same unobstructed vistas from either the indoor or outdoor observation area on the 58th floor as part of an extensive amenities package......

^^^^

That last shot is great. Almost everything there is new. Whole blocks are being developed. Quite a change for the area, and LIC is undergoing a big transformation like the HY district.

Quite incredible. And we've all seen just how big DoBro has become yet the pipeline has a lot more in store for LIC and its proxies.

This will be even more awesome when Queens new two tallest rise up (not to mention everything else that would be in that view).

haven't followed tower 28 much so far . .
It was very noticable when I took the ferry to Randalls Is. . .
(to see "Frieze" the Art Exhibition) . .
Tower 28 & the 2 dancing copper buildings in Manhattan, . .
were more exciting to view, than the "ta-Rash-modernism" I saw at Frieze . .
This casual asymmetrical form is pleasing . .
and enhances the LIC skyline immeasurably . .
But why does it say, in a few posts above, that it's the "tallest" in LIC . .
Isn't One Court, at 658 ft., 11 feet taller ? . .

Facade work complete at 42-12 28th Street
