Linden Canyon LLC presented a rezoning application for property on Linden Boulevard (7806/7808 Linden Boulevard) in Queens Community District 10 that would change existing R4 zoning to a combination of R7D along Linden Boulevard and R6A mid‑block, and would map the area as an MIH zone (options 1 and 2; applicant preferring option 2).

The applicant's representative, Lisa Orantia of Ackerman LLP, said the site comprises about 48,000 square feet and includes a one‑story commercial building with surface parking. Revised project designs presented during the borough hearing responded to community input by lowering the street wall and shifting bulk away from 70 Ninth Street. The current design would yield about 267 dwelling units split into 97 senior units and 170 workforce units (the applicant said the workforce units would average about 70% AMI under MIH option 2). The schematic indicates roughly 224,000 square feet of total floor area, about 7,000 square feet of community facility space, 7,000 square feet of recreation space, and 86 residential parking spaces. The applicant said all units and mechanical systems would be designed to avoid placing critical systems below flood elevation and described flood mitigation features including floodgates at entries, stormwater capture tanks, and coordination with DOT/DEP for street grades and bioswales.

Community Board 10 reviewed the revised design and recommended approval with modifications and conditions; the board's chair, Betty Bratton, said the motion to approve passed with only one dissenting vote. CB10 described negotiations that reduced height and bulk on 70 Ninth Street, added senior housing, and committed the applicant to coordinate on uses for the community facility space. The applicant confirmed willingness to work with the FDNY and the council office to reserve space for an ambulance facility if viable, and said they would seek a deed restriction to cap height along 70 Ninth Street subject to lender approval.

City Planning issued a negative declaration with E‑designations for hazardous materials, air quality, and noise at certification. The applicant said it would pursue financing and permits after City approvals and that certain commitments (for example a deed restriction on height) depend on lender approvals and further coordination.

The borough hearing closed the item after CB10's statement and the applicant's presentation. No final City action occurred at the hearing; the record reflects CB10's recommended conditions and the applicant's stated commitments on flood mitigation, MWBE hiring aims (applicant indicated a 30% MWBE hiring aim), and coordination on community facility uses.
