The 4,000 s/f building includes 1.25 floors and 40 ft. of frontage on the south-southwest corner at 65th St. and Queens Blvd. The building occupies 40'x80' of its 40'x100' lot, and it features a 3,200 s/f ground floor retail space, with an 800 s/f office on the second floor. The property was purchased by a private investor. The seller was Len Levy of Queens Glass Company, Inc. With a F.A.R. of 5.0 (R7X/C2-3), the lot is buildable to 20,000 s/f.
