(DNAINFO)  Nicholas Rizzi | October 2, 2016 Plans for a new building at the Teleport call for a vineyard and rooftop farm.

Wine lovers may soon be able to sample a vintage with grapes grown on Staten Island.

A vineyard is featured in plans filed for a new building at the Teleport business park on South Avenue, developers told the Staten Island Advance.

“Staten Island has beer, why can’t it have wine too?” Richard Nicotra, owner of the Nicotra Group that bought the property earlier this year, asked the paper.

A spokeswoman for the Nicotra Group did not respond to a request for comment from DNAinfo.

Aside from the vineyard, Nictora plans a rooftop farm with beehives, indoor bocce ball courts, an Italian restaurant and a wellness center, the Advance reported.

Nictora, who already owns two buildings inside the Teleport and the Hilton Garden Inn, purchased the nine-acre plot of land for $3.6 million from the Port Authority in February, the Advance reported.

The 240,000-square-foot building, dubbed Corporate Commons 3, is still in the design phase, Nictora told the paper.

The city put out a bid for the site inside the 100-acre Teleport last year and released one for another 7.3-acre parcel of land for uses including food manufacturing, modular construction, flood defense system fabrication and green energy system manufacturing.

The site hosts office buildings, the St. Paul’s School of Nursing and two charter schools — the John W. Lavelle Preparatory Charter School and the New Ventures Charter School — and was identified as a possible site to house a jail to replace Rikers.
