Construction Begins On New Sunnyside Theater




Call, “Lights, Camera, Action,” as construction is about to begin on a 12-story, mixed-use building at 38-01 Queens Boulevard in Sunnyside that will house a new Regal Cinemas Theater.

The development dubbed “The Sunnyside,” will feature 40,350-square-feet of space for the new theater and 115,000-square-feet for medical offices and additional retail space, according to a post on the YIMBT (Yes, In My Backyard) website.

The building will feature a basement garage with space for 100 vehicles, along with facilities for dentists, doctors, therapists, radiology and other services.

The 136-foot-tall structure will also feature three to four terraces on the rear of the building, according to YIMBY.

The building foundation is already underway, construction will begin this fall, and completion is expected by the spring of 2019.
