Long Island City added more housing towers than almost any other New York neighborhood, while Dutch Kills and the waterfront keep converting industrial lots into studios, labs, and offices. For multifamily developers, general contractors, and trade subcontractors, that makes accurate multifamily quantities on Court Square and Hunters Point residential towers and similar projects essential to winning work at a profit.
Long Island City's apartment towers need high-rise general conditions, vertical transportation, and rated assemblies, and our estimates cover all three. Floodplain multifamily sites in Queens County use parking or amenity levels below flood elevation and raised residential floors.
Under the NYC Construction Codes and the NYC Energy Conservation Code, small details add up: fire separation, sound transmission, accessibility, and sprinkler requirements. We catch them during the multifamily takeoff instead of after the award. New York City costs such as DOB NOW filings, sidewalk sheds, hoisting, and Local Law 97 upgrades are called out separately when they apply. Measurements are done in PlanSwift, Bluebeam Revu, and RSMeans and summarized in Excel for your Long Island City bid.
Remote Estimation has prepared estimates on more than 5,000 projects for 500+ contractors, and that experience goes into every Long Island City multifamily bid we touch. Union crews and Comptroller prevailing wage rates shape most New York City budgets, so the labor basis matters as much as the quantities. Your multifamily estimate can be built on union, prevailing, or open-shop labor, whichever the bid requires. Email your plan set to info@remoteestimation.us for a fixed multifamily quote.
