About the Brewster Building, Queens
In Long Island City, Queens, the Brewster Building stands at 27-01 Queens Plaza North, a building of 400,000 square feet (37,000 m²). It was once a plant for assembling Rolls-Royce and Brewster automobiles and Brewster airplanes, among them the F2A Buffalo fighter, along with the SB2A Buccaneer, a light bomber. It later served as JetBlue Airways' corporate headquarters.
Stephenson & Wheeler designed the building, which opened in 1911 to assemble chassis for Brewster cars. Those cars had been made since 1905 at a Times Square site, at 47th Street and Broadway. The site was among the earliest big developments at the base of the Queensboro Bridge, which opened in 1909 and shortened the car trip between Queens and Times Square to just minutes.
Rolls-Royce of America bought the company in 1925. Between 1931 and 1934, chassis for the Rolls-Royce Phantom II went straight to the plant in Long Island City. During World War II, the Brewster Aeronautical Corporation built the F2A Buffalo there, as well as the F3A-1, a variant of the Vought F4U Corsair. The multi-story layout limited how efficiently airplanes could be made. The clock tower was dismantled in 1950.
