Skyline has been in the news recently as it is currently building two residential condo buildings, one at 170 East End Ave. and the other at 37 Wall St., as GlobeSt.com has reported.
Wilf is expanding his retail holdings to Queens. "We feel that Astoria represents an emerging and still undervalued opportunity," Wilf says in a prepared release. "We believe this property fits well into our commercial portfolio."
