Pearson St Condos?

[quote]The heart of Long Island City is finally going condo.
In a move that could touch off a wave of apartment construction, a Brooklyn condo developer bought the first major building site sold since the 37-block Queens industrial area was rezoned in mid-2001.
The developer is one of a host of builders from hot residential enclaves like Williamsburg who are looking for a new frontier.
"I see a very good opportunity in Long Island City," Mark Junger of Rosma Development told the Daily News. "I think it's going to be a hot neighborhood."
He paid $16.5 million for the site at 45-56 Pearson St. - where he's going to construct a 20-story "Manhattan-style building," he said.[/quote]
If you are like me and are thinking.. where is Person Street... I will post a reply with a map.

Going to be done by Scranto Architects whose website is just one big flash, so here is something more useful.

That location is so close to the elvated #7 line...I wonder if noise will be a consideration when they build it...like will it have triple pane windows? Plus it's right off the main road there that backs up with rush hour traffic from the Queensboro Bridge...strange location...no parks, no waterview. LIRR at the end of the block. Hmmm.
