Wang opens Project Queens brokerage firm

Queens, NY According to Michael Wang, Project Queens, a forward-thinking, technology-driven real estate brokerage specializing in Queens, has opened. Wang, a commercial real estate broker, takes his experience and leverages it with advanced technology to deliver market exposure and provide support for project developers and investors.

Wang is also the co-chair of the real estate committee at the Queens Chamber of Commerce. He has decided to launch this brokerage to bridge the gap between the traditional ways of brokering with a more modern, technologically-based, and service-oriented process.

Project Queens is one of the only agencies that specializes in commercial leasing based solely in the borough. “What really sets us apart is our unique personal and professional ties to Queens,” Wang said. 

Project Queens offers transparency in all of their dealings and is capable of handling some of the biggest project developments in the city. The brokerage recently closed a $10 million industrial portfolio in Flushing. Some of their listings in Long Island City include a 40,000 s/f retail space (5-06 51st Ave) and a 75,000 s/f mixed use retail and office building (37-10 Queens Blvd). They also added a 60,000 s/f warehouse in College Point, Flushing (31-89 123rd St). Project Queens’ recently closed tenants include Chase Bank, Mango Mango, and Code Ninjas.

The community welcomes Project Queens. “As the president and CEO of the Queens Chamber of Commerce, it gives us all great pleasure in supporting one of our own, Michael Wang,’’ said Thomas Grech, executive director, Queens Chamber of Commerce. Project Queens is guided by Wang’s expertise within the Queens Chamber of Commerce to provide a technological approach to commercial real estate.
