Living in Long Island City
Long Island City has transformed from an industrial district into one of New York's fastest-growing residential neighborhoods, its skyline now defined by glass towers along the East River. Gantry Plaza State Park and Hunter's Point South Park line the waterfront with some of the best Manhattan-skyline views in the city, while MoMA PS1 and a cluster of galleries anchor a lively arts scene.
It's one of the best-connected neighborhoods in Queens — the 7, N, W, E, M, G, F and R lines all serve LIC, and NYC Ferry stops at Hunters Point and Gantry Plaza put Midtown one stop or a short ride away. Housing is dominated by new luxury high-rise rentals and condos, with pockets of converted lofts and older low-rise buildings toward Court Square and Dutch Kills.
The Long Island City market, in plain terms
Long Island City is one of the city's most dynamic markets, driven by new high-rise condo and rental development and a steady flow of professionals drawn by the commute and skyline. Renter demand is deep, luxury inventory is plentiful, and the neighborhood remains a magnet for investors focused on new-construction condos and rentals.
