While some new developments seek to transform their neighborhoods, Tangram House emphasizes its deep connection to Flushing. The 1.2 million-square-foot development plans to bring new housing, new office space, a four-star Renaissance Flushing Hotel, acclaimed international restaurants, and a 4DX Regal Cinemas, Flushing’s first movie theater in decades, to Queens. Some of these ventures look uncertain in light of the coronavirus pandemic, but the connection to the community has stayed consistent: At the height of the pandemic, developer F&T Group partnered with non-profit Asians in America to purchase and deliver meals from its food tenants to first responders.
On the residential side, Tangram House’s collection of studio through three-bedrooms features interiors by JG Neukomm Architecture, a firm famous for its work for Tiffany & Company, Calvin Klein, and Ian Schrager. A 15-year tax abatement is in effect, and residential amenities include a fitness center, indoor saltwater pool, tennis courts, spa with sauna and salt room, children’s playroom, library, and 1.5 acres of gardens.
“Architecture does not exist in a vacuum, and it is important to reflect the neighborhood surroundings when designing both public and private spaces.” - Jean-Gabriel Neukomm, founder, JG Neukomm Architecture
In an interview with CityRealty, Jean-Gabriel Neukomm cited the desire to connect the building to Flushing’s sense of culture was a key influence on the design of Tangram. More recently, a pair of new model three-bedrooms have been unveiled. Apartment #10R measures 1,614 square feet, faces northwest, and is listed for $1,943,860. Apartment #10Q measures 1,617 square feet, enjoys southwestern exposures, and is listed for $2,068,470.
