Project Description
The New York City Police Department (the Police Department or Department), in conjunction with Department of Citywide Services (DCAS), seeks a rezoning and site selection of city-owned property (Queens Block 13265, Lot 30) located at 242-20 North Conduit Avenue in the Rosedale neighborhood of Queens Community District 13. The NYPD wishes to rezone this preopty from an R3-2 distrixt to an R3-2/C1-3 zoning district. This 126,929 square foot parcel is presently city-owned and is partially improved with a 19,611 gross square foot one-story police precinct (105th Precinct Satellite) located on the western portion of the lot. Working with DCAS, the Department proposes the acquisition and site selection of this parcel to house the new 116th Police Precinct Stationhouse on the eastern portion of the lot. The existing 105th Precinct would remain in use and a new structure of approximately 45,000 gross square feet would be built on the same lot in a location currently occupied by a parking lot. The full build scenario would result in approximately 550 New York Police Department employees and a total of 155 vehicles. The new building would be built in a manner that would suit the Departments current and projected needs, and would include administrative space, locker room space, detention cell area, a Detective Squad and office space for various precinct units conducting police duties. NYPD is proposing to locate additional accessory parking spaces (~45) on the western end of an existing, City DOT-owned municipal parking lot to the west (Block 13264, Lot 18). The NYPD is also intending to utilize a small lot with room for approximately 20 cars (Block 13265 Lot 20) in the same manner as the Lot of Block 13264, Lot 18.
