Jackson Square, a development that will be built at 23-20 Jackson Ave., includes three fl oors dedicated to retail and fi ve fl oors of space for commercial tenants. Jackson Square is located across the street from the Citigroup building and is currently a one-story structure. According to its website, the building will include 53,329 square feet of space on the fourth through eighth floors for commercial tenants and 30,000 square feet on the fi rst three fl oors for retail tenants. Each fl oor also features outdoor space. The Vorea Group, which purchased a 99-year lease for the site last year, is trying to entice tenants by promoting Relocation and Employment Assistance Program tax credits, which the city gives to businesses when they relocate outside of Manhattan. Businesses are entitled to $3,000 for each employee, Real Estate Weekly fi rst reported. Garry Steinberg, managing director and principal of marketing fi rm Lee & Associates, told Real Estate Weekly that the building’s location off ers many benefi ts to tenants looking to move in. “Today’s Long Island City offers unparalleled access to four boroughs and two international airports for customer traffi c,” he said. “In addition, the area has a rapidly growing, affl uent residential population, as well as an expanding commercial sector.” The city is looking to rezone the Court Square section of Long Island City in hopes to attract more commercial and retail tenants, arguing that more supply will drive down rent costs. But in a February community meeting to discuss the plan, longtime residents and business owners expressed fear that the rezoning would only bring in tenants looking to pay top dollar and make it more expensive to live and work in the area. No plan has been fi led for Jackson Square with the Department of Buildings as of yet.
