Forest Hills Housing Development and Synagogue


The Reform Temple of Forest Hills asked Loci to evaluate zoning options for the development of their property to help them secure the congregation’s financial future. We introduced them to a Queens-based developer and generated design schemes while working with the Department of City Planning to upzone the property. The city approved the rezoning in early 2023. The 153-unit project will conform to Mandatory Inclusionary Housing requirements and include a new synagogue designed by Loci.
