Interests are sparked. Questions are raised. Whats up with the Whitestone Condos?
Back in 2003 there was a "factory" industrial building that sat on a property 112x200 with a C1 zoning: (C1 Zoning would allow light commercial) This property was sold in late October 2003 for a whopping price of $2.480,000. The factory was knocked down and slowly - and I do mean slowly the Whitestone Manor Condos have been evolving.
Are the residence of Whitestone happy about this? Have they thought about the direct affect that the amount of people this condo will bring into their neighborhoods?
When I was talking to one longtime resident, she told me that she was happy about the condos, it would mean less trucks driving up and down her block to this warehouse. It would mean that the area would have one less industrial building. Maybe there would be more people, but the Manor is providing some/ ? parking spots for the residence, so she does not think that the parking will be an issue (she made me a promise that she would follow up on this with me when all the units are sold).
So what is "The Manor" about?
The exclusive condo units will be one of the few CONDO units in Whitestone. Whitestone has alot of multi-family, single family, cooperatives and rental properties, but as for Condos - well, this was something that we lacked. The proposed plans for this development will be 49 luxury units. They will feature studios, one bedrooms and two bedroom units. The apartments will be state of the art with top of the line appliances, and fixtures.
This 49 condo unit will have a dramatic multi-level grand lobby with a concierge service. There will be an on-site gym, lounge and billiard room. As a resident there will be access to the two community roof top decks that will contain some bridge views and like I said previously - there will be SOME parking.
The units are located at 151-31 12 Ave. I will have some pictures this week and quite possibly get some starting asking prices - once the offering plan has been filed with the State of NY.
Were you able to get some pictures and asking prices?
