    PIN X735.82 Van Wyck Expressway Capacity and Access Improvements to JFK Airport Project DDR/DEIS CHAPTER 2 Project Context PIN X735.82 Van Wyck Expressway Capacity and Access Improvements to JFK Airport Project DDR/DEIS Project Context 2.1 PROJECT HISTORY As part of a post-World War II $200-million development program, and in anticipation of an increased population size, the City of New York sought to expand its highway and parkway system to allow for greater movement throughout the five boroughs. The six-lane Van Wyck Expressway (VWE) was envisioned to help carry passengers quickly from the newly constructed Idlewild Airport (present-day John F. Kennedy International Airport [JFK Airport]) to Midtown Manhattan. In 1945, the City of New York developed a plan to expand the then-existing Van Wyck Boulevard into an expressway. The City of New York acquired the necessary land in 1946 and construction began in 1948, lasting until 1953. The Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) bridges for Jamaica Station, which were originally constructed in 1910, were reconstructed in 1950 to accommodate the widened roadway. The designation of the VWE as an interstate highway started with the northern sections of the roadway between the Whitestone Expressway and Kew Gardens Interchange (KGI) in the 1960s. By 1970, the entire expressway was a fully designated interstate: I-678 (the VWE). In 1998, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ) began work on AirTrain JFK, an elevated automated guideway transit system linking downtown Jamaica to JFK Airport. AirTrain JFK utilizes the middle of the VWE roadway to create an unimpeded link, connecting two major transportation hubs in Queens.

  • Property Characteristics Upon Completion
    13-190 Property Characteristics Upon completion of the new construction project, the subject property will be in similar condition to the comparable retail buildings, warranting similar rental rates. Therefore, the comparable rentals did not warrant any adjustments for this factor. CONCLUSION – RETAIL MARKET RENTS AND TERMS As previously discussed, the local retail market has a high demand and a limited supply of retail space, particularly for smaller sized units (under 3,000 square feet). Conversations with local brokers indicated that the immediate DUMBO ground floor market contains 300,037± square feet of rentable area of which 21,630± square feet (7.2%) is currently vacant. Of the vacant rentable area there are seven vacancies of larger unit sizes between 3,300± and 7,000± square feet. The local brokers indicated that units smaller than 3,000± square feet are in high demand in the local market. In addition spaces available for food services and restaurant related uses are in greater demand than typical consumer goods retail uses. Any proposed retail redevelopment of the subject property could be divided into smaller retail units containing average unit sizes of less than 3,000± square feet. The adjusted comparable rents were as follows: Comparables Adjusted Rent/Sq. Ft. 1 $50.00 2 $42.00 3 $44.00 4 $62.00 5 $50.00 6 $21.12 7 $40.95 8 $33.00 The subject’s location adjacent to the eastern edge of the Brooklyn Bridge Park, the overshadowing presence of the Manhattan Bridge, and the noise pollution which the traffic flow across the bridge reduce the desirability of the subject location.
