A new public school will be built on
the site of a proposed residential development
in Woodside that the City Council
approved on Oct. 31, City Councilman
Robert Holden announced..
“We have severe overcrowding in the
schools in my district,” said Holden. ” So
I cannot accept large housing developments
without also trying to create new
schools.”
Th e new school will be built as part of
the mixed-use development for the site at
69-02 Queens Blvd. It will be for kindergarten
through fi ft h grade with 476 seats.
Th e site itself is located within School
District 24, the most overcrowded school
district in New York City.
While Holden remains fi rmly against
overdevelopment within his City Council
district, he said that he was happy the
developer, Madison Realty Capital, was
willing to negotiate an agreement that
made more sense for the surrounding
community.
Holden also pushed the developer to
reduce the height of the building by four
stories, increase the number of 2-bedroom
units and redesign the parking
entrance to include more parking spaces,
which the developer agreed to do.
According to Holden, the original
proposal was too large and too dense.
Madison Realty Capital wants to build a
431-unit site with 129 aff ordable housing
units. Besides the school units the developer
is planning on to put a 32BJ building
services union on the site.
“Any developer targeting my district for
future projects should expect me to fi ght
for these quality of life issues for my constituents,”
said Holden.
