In August, we checked in at 21-30 44th Drive when apartments first started coming to market.1 When we stopped by last week, we saw that facade work is underway, as seen in the photo below. Modern Spaces has the project, and recently launched their website for the building.2 There are listings for studios through 2 bedrooms with prices starting from $560,000 and going up to $1.51 million.
The permit calls for 85 units with 99,980 square feet of residential space and a FAR of 4.00.3 Signage calls for a July, 2019 delivery.
Here’s a description from the website:
CORTE represents the next step in the remarkable evolution of Long Island City. Located on 44th Drive, the building offers a modern aesthetic with precise, yet warm finishes. Every aspect of the building is composed to make urban living more simple, sophisticated, and inspiring.
