LIC, only five minutes east of midtown Manhattan, continues to see residential and commercial growth. The $80 million renovation of Queens Plaza is complete.

They were joined in 2012 by over 1,000 staff of JetBlue Airways. This fall, multinational media firm Publicis will move its Manhattan office to Queens Plaza, bringing 450 workers, and CUNY School of Law is will open nearby. Over 4,800 residential units have recently been completed or under construction, involving roughly 35 buildings. Thousands more units are in the pipeline, including 5,000 in the Hunters Point South development alone, which will be the largest middle-income housing development in a generation in New York City. 19 hotels are now open or nearing completion in LIC.
