- Public record
Stimdel Properties (FL), Inc. has filed to rezone the OCASA 12-12 33rd Avenue site in Long Island City, Queens, to allow five mixed-use buildings with about 560 homes, according to the city’s Zoning Application Portal.
Why it matters
The application, project P2016Q0015, is a full ULURP review in Queens Community District 1. It was listed as “Filed” on Nov. 9, 2026, and has not yet been certified, so the public clock has not started. The site is currently mapped R5, a low-density residential district, in an area that mixes manufacturing and housing.

The numbers
The filing seeks a zoning map amendment from R5 to M1-4/R6A, M1-4/R6B and M1-5/R7A, plus text amendments to ZR 123-90 and Appendix F. Together they would enable five buildings of five to nine stories with roughly 560 residential units and 50,000 square feet of commercial and manufacturing space. The M1 pairings keep a commercial and manufacturing requirement alongside the housing. At the stated figures, the 560 homes work out to roughly 112 per building across the five structures, and the 50,000 square feet of non-residential space is the portion that preserves jobs-oriented use on a site that would otherwise convert to housing only. The record does not state an affordable-unit count, so none is assumed here.
What’s next
Next steps are city planning certification, then review by Queens Community Board 1, the borough president, the City Planning Commission and the City Council. No hearing dates are posted yet, and the portal lists no certification date. Other Queens filings in the pipeline include a 257-unit rezoning on Queens Boulevard in Woodside. More on the city’s pipeline is in New York.
