Hunters Point South is the waterfront south of 50th Avenue, down to Newtown Creek. The city's 2008 plan for its roughly 30-acre public site called for up to 5,000 homes, 60% of them permanently set aside for middle-income households. The park along the water opened in two phases, in 2013 and 2018, and the NYC Ferry stops at the Hunter's Point South landing.
Almost everything here is a managed tower with drywall partitions, so the jobs are new-building jobs: TVs and shelves on drywall, furniture assembly on move-in day, patch-and-paint before a move-out. Management will usually want a certificate of insurance and a booked service elevator before any contractor goes up. Send your building's requirements with the request, and we'll tell you before booking whether we can meet them.
