Bohemia, NY-headquartered Noble Elevator Vice President Thomas Dutton tells ELEVATOR WORLD Noble provided a five-unit elevator system for 25-01 Queens Plaza North, a new 28-story residential tower in Long Island City (LIC), Queens, NY. The system consists of four high-rise traction units — three overheads with Hollister-Whitney (HW) GL185 machines and one machine-room-less unit with a HW GL170 machine, all paired with Smartrise C4 controllers. The contract also included a hydraulic elevator for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority stair connection to the subway provided by Canton Elevator. All cabs are by Canton Architectural Products, with entrances by Columbia Elevator and fixtures by Monitor Elevator Products. Slated for completion in the first half of 2025, 25-01 Queens Plaza North was designed by Handel Architects for developer Grubb Properties, New York YIMBY reported. It is 311-ft tall with 417 apartments, as well as 7,000 ft² of commercial space.
