The building blends historic and modern elements seamlessly.

On the east side, you'll find grills and a dedicated dining area, ideal for hosting outdoor gatherings.
The Powerhouse offers easy access to scenic green spaces and spectacular views of the Manhattan skyline. The surrounding area is full of convenient amenities, including Food Cellar, Urban Market, hardware stores, banks, pharmacies, and doctors' offices.

LONG ISLAND CITY
Located right across the East River, you're traveling through
Long Island City if you want to get from Manhattan to Queens. Once
an industrial neighborhood, the last twenty years have been
transformative for this area as it quickly expands its population
and artistic culture.
Fun Facts and History of
Long Island City
The official coat of arms for LIC depicts the Native Americans,
Dutch, and English that once called the area home. LIC was its own
city from 1870 until it became part of the Greater City of New York
in 1898. Afterwards, LIC earned the distinction of being the First
Ward of the Queens Borough. LIC was a bustling commercial and
manufacturing hub as various factories opened up in the area.
In 2001, the city changed LIC's classification from commercial
to residential. Since then dozens of new luxury apartments have
been built here to support the growing population. LIC has become
known as an artist haven as many museums, galleries, restaurants,
and bars open their doors…

RENTHOP DESCRIPTION
The apartment is a unit offered at a monthly price of $6,500. The building allows easy access via an elevator. The person posting the listing did not specify that any pets were allowed. It may be the case that pets are ok and the manager simply has not yet filled out all the details. This is a No Fee apartment, meaning the manager or agent should not ask you for a broker fee (there may still be deposits and other move-in fees paid to the landlord).
We have 16 photos of this particular unit, building, and surrounding areas.
