Queens, NY - Developers Chosen To Build Housing In Rockaways

Queens, NY - The Bloomberg administration has selected three private developers to build more than 1,600 units of middle-income housing and about 500,000 square feet of retail space in a now dilapidated section of the Rockaways in Queens.  

The project, to be built next to a similar development of 2,300 hundred units, will be constructed by the Bluestone Organization, L&M Equity, and Triangle Equities. Rep. Anthony Weiner, who ran for mayor last year, joked that he would invite Mr. Bloomberg back if the project was finished after his term expired. He was, of course, suggesting that he'd succeed Mr. Bloomberg in City Hall.
