History of the site:

After 40 years in business the Neptune Diner located in Astoria, Queens, NYC served its last meal on Sunday, July 29. 2024. The owners claimed they were not given a chance to renew their lease, because the property will soon be turned into a residential building.

 

Since 1983, The Katsihtis brothers have owned the building on Astoria Boulevard but not the land, which was sold in 2018 for over $10 million.

 

The brothers also had a 35-year lease which expired in 2019. But since then, they were not able to come to a long-term agreement with the landlord.

But that's what Long Island City/Astoria needs is another apartment building. It's already so overbuilt, it's ridiculous. Yet they keep tearing them down and building new ones, many of which are luxury rentals. The neighborhood is losing its character to steel and glass.

A new rendering has been revealed for 29-15 40th Road, an upcoming 12-story residential building in Long Island City, Queens. Few details have been made public about the project, which is being designed by Fogarty Finger Architects and developed by SB Development, which also acquired the adjacent lot at 29-13 40th Road for $8.7 million last fall.

This morning the cloud cover over downtown Long Island City looked to resemble what appeared like a gigantic Baby Yoda up in the sky. Really crazy

This townhouse had been built in 1848 and at one time had been a foundry, which is a factory that produces metal castings to create ornamental and functional objects, such as door and cabinet hardware, skillets and waffle irons, and machine parts. They are especially useful for larger cast metal objects such as bronze sculptures and bells.

 

I just love photographing older buildings and later researching them and learning all types of unusual things

There's NO Parking on Sidewalks

_____

It's so out of control. And some are placing their neon construction vests on the dashboard as proof they can just randomly do as they please, and are seemingly getting away with it. These vehicles are never towed.

What if a disabled person needed to get past?

Or a citizen in a wheelchair for that matter?
