Modern Façade and Structural Systems for a Luxury Residential Development
Located at 11-39 49th Avenue in Long Island City, this project is part of the rapid transformation of Hunters Point into one of Queens’ most sought-after residential neighborhoods. The development represents a new generation of high-end residential buildings designed to combine modern architecture, functionality, and urban living.
MGR Restoration participated in the ground-up development of this luxury residential property, contributing to the installation of façade systems, masonry, roofing, and structural components. Projects of this nature require precise coordination between trades, strict adherence to construction timelines, and high-performance material systems.
As Long Island City continues to grow as a residential and commercial hub, developments like this play a key role in shaping the area’s modern skyline.
Ground-up construction projects demand efficiency, coordination, and technical expertise across multiple building systems to ensure long-term performance and durability.
