A redeveloped industrial area along the East River in Queens, Long Island City is now one of NYC’s most desired places to live. The area really shines with its gleaming modern high-rise towers with some of the best sweeping views of Manhattan. Further east you’ll find a blend of timeless townhouses, charming low-rise condos, and converted factory lofts. The dynamic neighborhood is perfectly located at the intersection of Queens, Brooklyn, and Manhattan, in the center of it all, with Midtown offices just across the river, and sought-after Greenpoint. Local artists and young professionals frequent LIC’s innovative art galleries and performance spaces, trendy bars, and restaurants. MoMA PS1 presents cutting-edge art and hosts seasonal dance parties. Also, to be enjoyed is the Isamu Noguchi Museum with sculpture garden, Socrates Sculpture Park with numerous exhibits and installations, and Hunter’s Point South and Gantry Plaza State Parks providing generous acreage along the water for strolling, recreation, or savoring the views.
