Long Island City, Queens
Charter School

At 108-68 Roosevelt Avenue, Apex joined with Barone Management in developing the future K-5 elementary school for the third iteration of one of the longest running charter schools in the New York City metropolitan area, Our World Neighborhood Charter School. First opening its doors in 2002, OWN will continue to expand into its new home on Roosevelt Avenue in time for the 2023/2024 school year. Consisting of approximately 40,000sf, the school will house roughly 486 students and will build upon the foundational models of previous OWN schools. In addition to the charter school component of this project, the development features 6,700sf of retail space located on the ground floor fronting Roosevelt Avenue and positioned directly at the base of the bustling 7 train subway stop. The retail premises is currently leased to Dunkin Donuts and Little Caesars, with additional leasing currently underway for the balance of the space.
