Queens commercial construction, borough-wide

Queens is New York City’s largest borough by area and one of its most diverse business environments. Long Island City has become a major office, coworking and studio district just across the river from Midtown. Downtown Flushing and Downtown Jamaica are dense commercial centers. Astoria, Jackson Heights and Forest Hills support thriving restaurant and retail corridors. And industrial areas like Maspeth and Ridgewood host growing food production and commissary operations.

Quedan Construction is a Queens general contractor building offices, retail stores, medical and dental practices, restaurants and commercial kitchens across the borough. We bring the same Manhattan-level project management to every Queens project — with a deep understanding of the borough’s buildings, corridors and communities.

Offices and coworking in Long Island City

Long Island City’s office market includes new towers, converted industrial buildings and creative workspaces. We build corporate offices, coworking floors and studio support spaces with modern MEP systems, flexible layouts and the amenities today’s teams expect.

Medical, dental and community healthcare

Queens communities rely on neighborhood medical and dental practices, from Flushing and Bayside to Forest Hills and Jamaica. We build practices in mixed-use and medical office buildings, coordinating plumbing to every room, accessibility, and the full set of inspections required before opening.

Restaurants, retail and food production

From Astoria’s restaurant rows to Queens Boulevard retail and Flushing’s food halls, we build restaurants and stores that open on schedule. In Maspeth, Ridgewood and Long Island City, we build commissaries and delivery kitchens with the exhaust, make-up air, refrigeration and utility capacity high-volume production requires.

Local knowledge that keeps projects moving

Queens projects come with their own considerations: mall tenant criteria, historic districts in neighborhoods such as Jackson Heights and Douglaston, flood zones in some coastal and industrial areas, and coordination requirements near JFK and LaGuardia airports. We identify these during preconstruction so they’re built into the schedule, not discovered on site.

Local know-how

Building & permitting in Queens

Mall and shopping center rules

Queens malls and shopping centers have tenant criteria manuals, overnight work windows and landlord inspections. We plan retail schedules around them from day one.

Historic districts

Jackson Heights, Douglaston, Ridgewood and other areas include Landmarks-designated districts, where storefront and exterior work needs LPC review.

Industrial and flood zones

Some industrial and coastal areas of Queens fall within FEMA flood zones, which can affect equipment placement, flood-resistant construction and insurance. We review flood maps early.

Airport-area projects

Commercial projects near JFK and LaGuardia may involve height and crane restrictions and additional coordination. We identify these requirements during preconstruction.
