Gotham Point in Queens, NYC’s Hunters Point South, consisting of 57- and 33-story towers that together will provide 1,132 rental apartments (75% affordable), is headed toward completion, with leasing in the 33-story Parcel G set to start in the spring and the 57-story Parcel F slated for completion this year, New York YIMBY reported in February. Otis told ELEVATOR WORLD it is providing, for Parcel F, six SkyRise® and five Gen2® elevators with EMS PANORAMA^TM elevator-management software and, for Parcel G, four SkyRise units.

Amenities will be generous, and include an outdoor rooftop terrace, a community boathouse, co-working space and a 3,000-ft² community facility for the nonprofit arts organization Flux Factory.
