Seniors housing developers compete for Global Award

trophyNEW YORK: The one hundred and eighty-fifth entry for the seniors housing Global Awards 2016 has been received.

Community Board 7 voted against approving a proposal seeking to build affordable housing at Municipal Lot 3 in Flushing because a portion of the units would also be allocated to residents living in the coverage areas of Community Boards 3 and 4.

The project, known as One Flushing, consists of 231 affordable apartments and a superinten­dent’s unit at the lot at 133-45 41st Ave., which would include 66 units of low-income senior housing.

The project would also provide up to 229 parking spaces, which would be 73 more than the current 156 spaces at the lot.
