Scaffolding up for LIC Clock Tower at 29-37 41st Avenue

The last time we stopped by 29-37 41st Avenue a/k/a 29-23 Queens Plaza North, we saw that rebar was rising from the ground.¹ When we stopped by last week we saw that construction has risen five floors, and the LIC Clock Tower itself is covered in scaffolding, as seen in the photos below.

Here’s more information about the project from The Real Deal:²

Queens Plaza Park, located at 29-37 41st Avenue near the landmarked Long Island City Clock Tower, will be a 978,000-square-foot mixed-use tower. It will have 958 residential units, 300 of which will be affordable. Handel Architects is designing the project — its latest renderings reveal a concave, glassy exterior — and Selldorf Architects is designing its interior, lobby and amenities.
