The city is currently seeking a developer for affordable housing on a 59,500-square-foot site at 168th Street and Archer Avenue in Jamaica, Queens. The property is currently used as a NYPD parking lot, and the official Request for Proposals was released last week. Officials say that the development will create 500 jobs in the area (400 construction jobs and 80 permanent jobs), and sources say the site can hold up to 300 apartments. [DNAinfo; previously]
