Right on top of a subway station with 2 lines, on a road that is like 250 feet wide. Frankly, 21 floors is too short.
While I agree this is in the LaGuardia flight path so that is probably some limitation.
The vanshnookenraggen blog posted an FAA LaGuardia flight obstruction map on one of their posts. Based on that map, the building height limit would be approximately 430’ (ground elevation of approximately 120’ and a height above sea level increases by 50’ for every 4 blocks or so heading south.
The map might be out of date - I feel like there are some buildings in Downtown Flushing higher than 120’ - but it should be a good ballpark estimate.
