Jackson Heights was America’s first planned garden apartment community, developed in the 1910s through 1930s by the Queensboro Corporation. The neighborhood’s signature six-story brick co-op buildings — designed around shared interior gardens — introduced a new model for urban living that influenced housing developments across the country. These buildings along 34th Avenue, 37th Avenue, and the numbered streets feature elegant brick facades, ornamental entryways, and uniform rows of double-hung windows that give the streetscape its rhythmic character. The Jackson Heights Historic District, designated in 1993, recognizes this architectural heritage. Today, many of these 80- to 100-year-old windows are original and in need of attention.
We are experienced in co-op building window programs that serve the entire building efficiently. We work with boards to select a uniform window specification that meets historic district requirements, then execute floor-by-floor replacement that minimizes disruption to residents. Our acoustic glass options are specifically rated for elevated subway noise attenuation — a critical consideration for buildings along Roosevelt Avenue.
Whether you are a board member planning a building-wide project or a shareholder exploring options for your unit, we are ready to help.
