Sutphin & Archer in June, 2019

Posted by Joe on Sun Jun 9 15:29:36 2019

Trackwork caused the E train to be rerouted from Archer Avenue to Hillside Avenue on the weekend of June 8 & 9, 2019. I will post some photos from noontime near the LIRR Jamaica station.

A huge apartment house is rising on the southeast corner of Sutphin and Archer. I wonder how old the buildings on the northeast and northwest corners are, and how long until they will be replaced.

That van at the curb was transporting LIRR employees to Hillside shops, as Belmont trains had taken over the local track. NICE supplied buses to Hollis and Queens Village.

So that's what they're building there.

It makes sense, 2 subway lines, LIRR, a million bus routes and the Air Train.

Thy are building everywhere in Queens and the Bronx. Even in areas that developers avoided for years. Fewer places left to build.

30-story building. Isn't that a big building for that area?

Yes. Nothing else that tall over there. There are some decent size buildings fairly close, like the court houses, Jamaica Hospital, the redeveloped MIH site, the Social Security building east of there, but none are anywhere near that tall.
