Trackside hotel coming to Astoria


From DNA Info:

A developer is planning to build a nine-story hotel with 52 rooms on 31st Street, just steps from the 30th Avenue subway station, city records show.

Anton Developers filed plans with the Department of Buildings Monday to construct the 95-foot-high hotel at 30-17 31st St., adjacent to the elevated N/W train tracks, on a lot that's currently home to a two-story house with a driveway and garage.

The hotel would include space for medical offices on its first and second floors, as well as an exercise room in the basement, according to the plans.

A developer building a hotel in Queens. Nothing unusual, just a "dog bites a man" story.

I always look for a crappy hotel with a medical center on the first floor right smack next to a elevated subway track when I am on vacation.

2 floors of medical offices=rehab clinic

This will be number 10 of De faustio's homeless shelter plan. All those artisan restaurant hoppers are going to have some enlightening confrontations.

I'm sure back door dealing Van Bramer bent over for the developer. He's taken cash bribes before for voting to approve over development.

Well, here comes another stealthed homeless shelter. What a surprise. Another demonstration of the corruption and lack of care for the city by this oversized pile of ambulatory excrement DeBlASSio. Please do not vote for another 4 years of this criminal.

Ask the local community board, the local politicians, the local blogs and of course the local civics.

End of story.

Clicking your tongues in disgust out the culprits does nothing.

The only way we can stop this is to assign the blame by name to the people and organizations responsible. Public shaming is the only way we can stop this.

Convenient - Makes it easier for the 'new residents' to roll the working peeps when they get off the subway.
