  $200 Million Building Planned Along 12th Avenue by Rockrose - New York Times
Rockrose plans to begin excavation and construction next week of an eight-story, 703,000-square-foot distribution center and telecommunications hotel.
Henry Elghanayan, chief executive of Rockrose Development, acknowledged that the project was a gamble, given that computer and Internet-related companies had been in a tailspin for months and the building was intended to house computers and other electronics for companies that use the Internet.
Rockrose, however, did sign a long-term lease recently with Federal Express, the package delivery company, to build a 260,000-square-foot distribution center on the first three floors of the building.
