Queens Crap contest: What's wrong here?

Take a hard look at the top and bottom photos here.
This is a Gerry Caliendo warehouse at the former site of St. Saviour's Church in Maspeth.
The winner receives 2 additional years of whatever Queens Machine party hack already represents you in Albany (exception made for residents in AD30).

Isn't he the favorite builder of the "goombahs"?

They built the entrance in front of the hydrant. That would be tough to maneuver your vehicle around for loading and unloading. Unless this is another warehouse meant for what passes for creative arts these days or one of those imitation we work communal workspaces.


Will this warehouse be hot tub and kiddie pool ready too?

Don't worry. We all will pay for the city to move/relocate it for them.

I heard it's supposed to be a halal slaughterhouse.

The City came in the middle of the night and put a fire hydrant in front of my driveway.

Such an architecturally unique warehouse, I'm sure its worthy of an AIA award and a Pritzker Prize. Perhaps in 50 years it can be landmarked for its historical significance to the neighborhood. How did this guy manage to graduate from architecture school?

This is worse than "self certified" - it was examined, and approved, by a DoB plan examiner who is unlicensed; when questions were raised as to how she got her job, she was transferred. Who's cousin is she?

how did they get such a minimal setback from the curb?
thats a pedestrian public safety issue IMHO
build it out too far and ask for forgiveness?

When the folks at Historic Districts Council was reminded that a senior staffer is now Caliendo's top henchman at Rufus King, they chortled and launched into one of their tirades on how stupid people in Queens are concluding with what's the big deal.

Actually a politically connected newspaper publishing hack once snidely stated that the people protesting St Saviours might get a mosque put here out of spite.

The leadership of Queens has nothing but contempt for us as they callously manipulate the stupid. It is those that are being manipulated that we must focus our attention.

No wonder we have people like Trump. Virginia Joe and his ilk made that monster and now they will have to deal with him - likely in the White House soon.

Any evidence or reporting on this? Sounds like a genuine scandal.
