Small question, is this true that ' City Bank' is the only Building being in the district of Queens?
Thank you

You may want to qualify that question. There are 2 million people living in Queens, virtually all indoors.

If you are referring to high-rises, Citicorp's tower in LIC is the tallest (658 ft?) and largest commercial building in the borough. There are also numerous mid-rise office buildings, primarily in LIC (most notably MetLife's new complex), Astoria and Jamaica. Residential skyscrapers have been completed along the East River waterfront - the tallest thus far is approximately 40 stories - with more large-scale projects in the works.

Citicorp will be building a second 14-story tower across the street from the first one

Are they still pushing for another 50-60 story one at the parking garage at Queens Plaza?

Last I heard Tishman Speyer had bought the Garage and a few other spots of the land around Queensboro Plaza.
