Welcome to Long Island City

State-of-the-art living with a classic view.
 
Long Island City was once a bustling, self-contained town. Iconic signs for Pepsi-Cola beverages and Swingline bakeries harken back to when LIC was best known for industrial commerce and production. Many of those brands have since departed, and their legacies have been replaced with new landmarks of an up-and-coming cultural scene that has steadily developed in recent years.
 

What To Expect

It is an energetic yet approachable neighborhood in which to live, work, and play.

Long Island City continues to gentrify, but its decidedly industrial past keeps the pace feeling more welcome than rushed. Former warehouse buildings and rail yards have given way to modern public green spaces, shops, and local-loved corner parks.

In general, residents are on the go, and the growing number of laptop-friendly coffee and cocktail bars, public sports fields, and Manhattan-based dining outposts is a testament to this.
 

The Lifestyle

Well-balanced with once-industrial charm.

Vibrant eateries along Vernon Blvd. and cultural staples like MoMA PS1 and LIC Food & Flea provide entertainment options both indoors and out. Gantry State Park and Hunter’s Point Park South provide approximately 34 acres of green space along the East River with unmatched Manhattan skyline views.The Long Island City lifestyle is all about getting "out and about" in your own backyard - taking advantage of a neighborhood that prides itself on a thriving independent business scene with a cosmopolitan edge.

Come summer nights, art and music fans flock to MoMA PS1 for events held on its outdoor patio space.

Unexpected Appeal

19th-century charm meets industrial chic, nestled along a classic NYC waterfront.
 

The Market

Luxury high-rise condos and well-appointed rentals with extensive amenities that satisfy any price point.

This once industrial neighborhood is now an array of quaint residential blocks, such as the historical landmarked 45th Ave, new high-rise buildings, and old factory conversions.The majority of Long Island City's rentals are recently constructed buildings with modern amenities ranging from doormen to rooftop dog runs and pools.

For more classic homes, look south to Hunters Point, a district bordered by 45th Avenue, 21st and 23rd Street.
 

You'll Fall In Love With

Clean-lined architecture and serene public spaces that feel modern and sleek, but still charmingly under the radar.

Long Island City serves as a diverse enclave convenient for those looking for the sleek aesthetic of a luxury building outside of the city as well as a quick commute.

Even though LIC is fast-approaching "it" neighborhood status, the area still sports a down-to-earth feel that makes it a relaxing place to return home to.

That's why life in Long Island City feels both under the radar and constantly new, with endless potential to make it one's own.
