RJ Capital Holdings plans 170-unit mixed-use building in Rego Park

RJ Capital Holdings plans to construct a 170-unit, mixed-use building building at 98-81 Queens Boulevard in Rego Park, Queens.

The 16-story, mixed-use building will have an undisclosed number of affordable units. The parcel is currently occupied by a 5,700-square-feet public facilities and institutions building.

The plans were disclosed that it is seeking zoning amendment from an R7-1/C1-2 district to an R8X/C2-4 district to facilitate the development. The file number is 20DCP160Q.

In 2016, there were reports that RJ Capital was planning to develop a five-story, 100,000-square-foot, mixed-use, commercial building on the property. However, no such plans were ever filed with the NYC Department of Buildings for 98-81 Queens Boulevard.

RJ Capital Holdings purchased the assemblage of properties at 98-69 and 98-83 Queens Boulevard and 66-02 99th Street for $9 million on January 15, 2013.
