The presentation provides context on the existing built environment along Queens Boulevard and recent development trends in the area.
- The proposed building, while taller than some nearby structures, is consistent with substantial buildings constructed along Queens Boulevard in the past half-century
- Most existing tall buildings in the area were built 30-40 years ago
- There has been limited new development in recent decades, with possibly only one new building near Yellowstone Boulevard
