Plate 98 of 102QueensQueens Community Board 14

Resilient Housing and Open Space ULURP - Queens

This site can hold about 20–23 homes under the standard zoning maximum. The top of that range is set by the dwelling unit and building-type limits (ZR 23-52, 137-21, 22-122), and the low end by the limits on building types (ZR 137-21, 22-122) (see the notes below); qualifying senior housing is exempt from the dwelling unit limit and could hold up to about 26. The City's LIFT tracker lists 10 homes. That is well under the low estimate for current zoning on the lots shown here.

The 2019 approval named 11 housing lots: eight for single- or two-family homes through HPD's Open Door program and three for private auction. Two of them have since been sold and are not counted here. None of the City documents checked gives the tracker's 10.

What City documents say

Facts from City documents that bear on the figures below. Each is quoted in the sources, and each speaks as of its document's date.

  • 11 housing lots in a 74-lot Sandy buyout approval (2019)

    The 2019 land use approval (C 190396 PCQ, C 190397 PQQ, C 190398 PPQ) covers 74 lots bought after Hurricane Sandy. Only 11 are for housing; the other 63 are to be open space.

  • Federal grant limits: elevated homes only

    Under the federal disaster-recovery grant that bought these lots, housing must be elevated and flood-compliant and built within a set time, or the City may take the lot back. The 2019 approval intended eight of the housing lots for single- or two-family homes through HPD's Open Door program and the other three for private auction by Project Rebuild, the program's nonprofit.

  • The other 63 lots must stay open space forever

    The approval's 63 open-space lots, including the tracker's map point at 14a Bayview Avenue, must be used as open space in perpetuity, with no new structures except limited park facilities.

  • Two of the 11 housing lots were sold and are not counted here

    The 2019 approval named 11 housing lots. Two of them, 3-20 Beach 41 Street (Block 15830, Lot 20) and 438 Beach 143 Street (Block 16293, Lot 60), were sold by Project Rebuild, the program's nonprofit, to private owners by deeds dated December 16, 2020 and January 11, 2021, and City tax records list a privately owned home on each. The figures here cover the other nine lots.

Floor area follows exactly from the Zoning Resolution. Homes are a range, because unit size and building efficiency are choices.

Floor area × efficiency ÷ average home size. Efficiency 0.7–0.85; average home 514–599 sq ft. Assumptions and their basis.

Some figures are shown as a span because the Zoning Resolution sets different limits depending on a condition public data do not settle: qualifying residential site (R1 to R5), which depends on the Greater Transit Zone boundary (it differs inside a Coastal Risk District), and on frontage on the short end of a block or whether an existing building holds community facility space, or on whether the building contains qualifying senior housing (a program choice).

What binds first

Flood hazard

All of the site is in FEMA's 2015 Preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Map 1% annual chance floodplain (zone AE). NYC uses this map for flood-resistant construction rules. Flood-resistant construction shapes the ground floor and can reduce usable floor area.

What the neighborhood asked for

Queens Community Board 14's formal requests to the City, from its annual Statement of Community District Needs and Budget Requests. It holds the largest share of the site's land; some lots are in Queens Community Board 10, whose requests are not shown here.

What gets in the way

Flags are flags, not verdicts. Each comes from a public layer, named in the sources.

  • Hazard

    In the 1% annual chance floodplain (2015 preliminary map)

    All of the site is in FEMA's 2015 Preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Map 1% annual chance floodplain (zone AE). NYC uses this map for flood-resistant construction rules.

  • Hazard

    In the 1% annual chance floodplain (effective 2007 map)

    About 62% of the site (16,200 sq ft) is in the 1% annual chance floodplain on FEMA's effective 2007 Flood Insurance Rate Map, which flood insurance still uses (MapPLUTO flags it too).

  • Hazard

    Stormwater flooding in a moderate storm (2050s)

    DEP's Stormwater Flood Map (moderate stormwater flood with 2050 sea level rise) shows future high tides on about 47% of the site (12,300 sq ft).

  • Hazard

    Stormwater flooding in an extreme storm (2080s)

    DEP's Stormwater Flood Map (extreme stormwater flood with 2080 sea level rise) shows future high tides on about 81% of the site (21,300 sq ft).

  • Caution

    (E) designation E-655

    On block 15968 lot 92 and block 15968 lot 94 (2 of the 9 lots), an environmental requirement (air quality) must be satisfied before the Department of Buildings issues permits for new development.

  • Caution

    1 of 9 lots has a building on it

    Block 14231 lot 1123 has a building on record with 1,158 sq ft of gross building area and 1 home, completed around 1950 (MapPLUTO; gross area includes space zoning does not count). Zoning counts floor area already on a lot toward its maximum, so the figures above are the most the land could hold in total, not what could be added while that building stands.

  • Caution

    Floor area depends on a condition public data do not settle

    The Zoning Resolution sets different limits depending on a condition that public data do not settle here, so some figures are shown as a span. The note under the floor area figures says which condition, and why.

  • Caution

    One- and two-family buildings only

    ZR 137-21 and 22-122 limit housing (ZR 22-122 only where a zoning lot is not a qualifying residential site; ZR 137-21 everywhere in a Special Coastal Risk District) to certain one- and two-family buildings (R3A (ZR 137-21): single- or two-family detached residences; R4-1 (ZR 137-21): single- or two-family detached residences; R4A (ZR 22-122): single- or two-family detached residences; R4-1 (ZR 22-122): single- or two-family detached, semi-detached or zero lot line buildings; R5A (ZR 22-122): single- or two-family detached residences). 6 of the 7 separate zoning lots can hold at most 16 homes that way: each zoning lot's buildings are counted by its minimum lot area (ZR 23-10, 23-11). The homes range above applies the limit.

  • Note

    In the Special Coastal Risk District 2 (Hamilton Beach, Queens)

    Does not change the FAR tables but removes the qualifying-residential-site FAR and qualifying senior housing, and limits housing to one- or two-family detached homes; in R3A a two-family home needs a zoning lot at least 40 ft wide. Its floor area rules are applied above (ZR 137-21).

  • Note

    In the Special Coastal Risk District 5 (Edgemere, Queens)

    Does not change the FAR tables but removes the qualifying-residential-site FAR and qualifying senior housing, and limits housing to detached one-family homes (R3A, and R4-1 lots under 25 ft wide) or one- or two-family detached homes (R4-1 lots 25 ft or wider). Its floor area rules are applied above (ZR 137-21).

  • Note

    Senior housing could build more

    With qualifying senior housing, ZR 12-10 would make 1 of the 9 lots a qualifying residential site, adding up to 1,579 sq ft of residential floor area (ZR 23-21) for a maximum of 30,181 sq ft. The homes range assumes other housing and leaves that out.

What this doesn't account for

Public data and the zoning text answer the questions above. These need information that is not public, or a decision that belongs to the City.

  • Public land use review (ULURP). Selling or leasing City land, or approving a housing project on it, generally goes through ULURP (community board, borough president, City Planning Commission, City Council), and this estimate does not presume the outcome.
  • Disposition of City property (Charter 384 / UDAAP). Transferring the land needs Mayoral approval under Charter Sec. 384 and, for HPD projects, usually Urban Development Action Area designation and project approval under NY General Municipal Law Article 16.
  • Environmental review (CEQR/SEQRA). Any discretionary approval, disposition or City funding triggers CEQR/SEQRA review, which can require mitigation (e.g. for hazardous materials, noise or historic resources) or reshape the project.
  • (E) designations. A lot with an (E) designation or environmental restrictive declaration for hazardous materials, air quality or noise cannot receive building permits until the Office of Environmental Remediation signs off.
  • Subsurface and site conditions. Unknown soil, rock, groundwater and contamination can shrink or eliminate cellars and add foundation and cleanup costs, and HPD requires every project to investigate and, if needed, remediate contamination.
  • Deed restrictions and reverter clauses. Land the City bought or sold may carry deed restrictions or reverter clauses limiting its use, which must be checked in title records (ACRIS) and DCAS's deed-restriction database.
  • Parkland alienation. If a site is municipal parkland, it cannot be sold or used for housing without an act of the State Legislature signed by the Governor.
  • Current occupants, uses and agency plans. Many City-owned lots are in active use or assigned to an agency, or have funded capital projects, and this estimate does not reflect relocation needs or agency plans (check COLP and the Capital Commitment Plan).
  • Mapped streets, easements and utilities. Mapped-but-unbuilt ('paper') streets, sewer and water easements and utility lines can take land out of the buildable area, and no permit may be issued for a building in the bed of a mapped street.
  • Street access. A lot with no frontage on a mapped street cannot get a building permit on its own and must be combined with a neighboring lot or have access mapped.
  • Landmarks review. Sites that are individual landmarks or inside historic districts need Landmarks Preservation Commission approval, which can limit demolition, height and bulk.
  • Flood-resistant construction. Sites in the 1% annual chance floodplain (or the 0.2% shaded X-Zone for critical facilities) must meet Building Code Appendix G, whose elevation and floodproofing rules can cost usable ground-floor and cellar space.
  • Airport height limits. Near JFK, LaGuardia and Floyd Bennett Field, zoning flight-obstruction surfaces cap building height, and tall structures anywhere need FAA notice.
  • State and federal funding conditions. Federal or State money brings its own requirements (e.g. HUD environmental review under 24 CFR Part 58, Davis-Bacon prevailing wages, Section 3 hiring) that can change cost, timing and program.
  • Zoning capacity is a ceiling, not a plan. The figures show what zoning allows, and actual HPD projects often build less, for example to fit neighborhood context, a community facility or funding limits.

Notes
On September 25, 2026, the MapPLUTO records and zoning district map behind this page were compared with DCP's live MapPLUTO (26v2) and zoning district layers for all 9 of its lots; every compared field and district boundary matched. A separate calculation, written from the method page and run on the same downloaded City data on September 25, 2026, reproduced the 9 lots and their area (26,322 sq ft), the zoning portions, the floor area (standard 28,602; on a qualifying residential site 28,602–30,181; community facility 49,844 sq ft), the homes (low 21, base 22, high 23), and the flags and what limits the site first.

Open data issues for this site are listed on the method page.
