Eleven Story Building to Go Up Where Queens Motor Inn Once Operated

The Former Queens Motor Inn (64-11 Queens Blvd.)

Oct. 25, 2018 By Christian Murray

Plans have been filed for an 11-story, 122-unit building to go up on Queens Boulevard in Woodside.

Developer Mount Sinai Properties, along with the Chetrit Group, have filed plans with the Department of Buildings to develop 43-21 64th Street (formerly 64-11 Queens Blvd.) where the Queens Motor Inn once operated.

The plans indicate that the development will include a ground floor car showroom, with residential units from floors two through 11. There will be a recreation room on the eighth floor and a rooftop space, according to the plans.

Chetrit and Mount Sinai acquired the property for $13.4 million in August 2017. Demolition permits were filed in August 2016 to bulldoze the hotel.

That will be absolutely great with already congested service road on queens blvd ever since they put up those useless (OK, BARELY used) bike lanes. Man those bike lanes take up more than 1 car lane. Remember “pedestrian walkway” the gray areas near bike lanes, like it’s some kind of scenic area?
