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](https://www.vanshnookenraggen.com/_index/2025/06/ibx-north-a-bridge-to-harlem-and-lga/) posted an [FAA LaGuardia flight obstruction map](https://www.vanshnookenraggen.com/_index/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/lga-dob-flight-obstruction-area-map.pdf) 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The map might be out of date - I feel like there are some buildings in Downtown Flushing higher than 120’ - but it should be a good ballpark estimate.
