Silvercup West Studios
Location: Long Island City, NY
SPR represents Silvercup West Studios–Terra Cotta LLC with respect to the proposed Silvercup West mixed-use development south of the Queensboro Bridge on the East River in Long Island City. This representation has included advice with respect to the preparation of an environmental impact statement (“EIS”) for the rezoning of the site and ULURP, obtaining NYSDEC and Army Corps of Engineers (“ACOE”) waterfront permits, and application to and participation in the BCP, which culminated in the NYSDEC’s issuance of a COC for the site in 2017. The firm has also represented this client with regard to the development of a new studio in the Bronx, called Silvercup North, as well as a series of other developments in the City.
