A Sweetleaf Coffee is coming to Tishman Speyer’s Long Island City project

We last stopped by Tishman Speyer’s Long Island City project at 28-34 Jackson Avenue, 28-10 Jackson Avenue and 30-02 Queens Boulevard, a/k/a “Jackson Park” back in August, when we noted that facade work was nearly complete.¹ By 2018, there will be three large residential builds with ground floor retail.² Among those retail spaces will include a Sweetleaf, which just recently put up signage announcing its eventual arrival, as seen in the photo below. Sweetleaf has three other locations, including 10-93 Jackson Avenue, 46-15 Center Blvd. and also in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

Here are more details of the project from Queens Brownstoner:³

The project includes three towers: 28-34 Jackson Avenue, holding 658 units and 6,000 square feet of retail space, 28-10 Jackson Avenue, with 683 units and 3,000 square feet of retail space, and 30-02 Queens Boulevard, with 448 apartments and 6,500 square feet of retail. (1,789 apartments and 1.2 million square feet of new development in total!)
