Long Island City

1/8

This burgeoning neighborhood draws interest from the city’s pioneering art community and Manhattan professionals alike, and is fast transitioning from factories to fabulous. Just one subway stop from Midtown, LIC is quickly becoming a destination neighborhood with its many cultural hubs and legendary Manhattan skyline views.

The East River waterfront is what truly defines LIC, known for its industrial warehouses, brilliant views of the Manhattan skyline, and current revitalization that includes the emergence of luxury condos. Vernon Boulevard is experiencing a rebirth with the addition of great restaurants, bars and shops, as is the major thoroughfare Jackson Avenue with its commercial mix leading to Court Square. LIC is minutes from Manhattan by train, NY Water Taxi and the Midtown Tunnel.
