Queens was the most popular borough for big projects in June for the second straight month, with four new building plans edging out Brooklyn’s three on The Real Deal’s top-10 list.
Manhattan had two projects — including the largest, a 10-story commercial property from Extell — and the Bronx had one.
The second-largest project was in Bedford-Stuyvesant, as Shorewood filed plans to build an 11-story, mixed-use building with 233 residential units.
The approximately 1.8 million square feet of total space for the city’s 10 biggest project filings in June was down substantially from about 3 million in May and 2.6 million in April.
