Property Description for 2-40 51st Ave, 2-F
This priced-to-sell 1-Bedroom, 1-Bathroom home is the perfect balance of openness and living space. Being one of the largest 1Br layouts in the building and tastefully laid out, it won't be available for very long!
The well appointed home has a south facing living room and bedroom with a bright and sunny disposition, floor-to-ceiling windows, a view overlooking the common outdoor terrace, beautifully finished cherry walnut flooring, and an in-unit washer/dryer.
The Chef's kitchen has an open layout, is equipped with black granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a Jenn-Air range and hood, blue porcelain backsplash, and ample storage space.
The Master bedroom is large enough to easily accommodate a King size bed, dresser, and office desk, and has a large deep closet with great room for storage. The bath features marble floors, stone tiles, Kohler fixtures, and a deep soaking tub.
The Foundry provides residents with an amenity package consisting of a part-time doorman, concierge, on-site super, package room, fitness center, expansive common outdoor deck, and private garaged parking. This Long Island City waterfront condominium is conveniently located on a peaceful residential block, within one short block from LIC Landing, the East River Ferry, children's playgrounds, dog parks, the new Urban Market grocery store, and the Vernon/Jackson stop of the 7 train.
The Foundry was completed in 2008, stands 4 stories with 57 apartments, and has a 15-year tax abatement expiring in 2024.

Quick Profile
Long Island City, the name does sound a little far away, like it requires a lengthy drive to get to. Think, again. Long Island City, also known as LIC, is nestled in the western corner of Queens along the East River. Midtown Manhattan is closer to Long Island City than it is to downtown Manhattan.
LIC is bordered by Sunnyside to the east, the East River to the west, Astoria to the north, and Newton Creek which separates Queens from Greenpoint Brooklyn to the south.
A once-shabby manufacturing epicenter, the neighborhood is a mix of industrial, commercial and residential. In recent years it’s seen a rise in some seriously cool factors. Populated by young professionals, multi-ethnic immigrants, and hipsters, LIC has a happening nightlife scene, fantastic restaurants (some of them Michelin starred), art museums and galleries. Much of the waterfront access has been redeveloped into sustainable public green spaces with modern design.
Although much of the industrial / manufacturing companies have since left LIC, many still reside there. They tend to co-exist with new residential building development the same way they do in other neighborhoods like Williamsburg and Greenpoint.
Office building developers and business tenants play a vital role in LIC too. It’s considered New York City’s fourth central business district next to Midtown, downtown Manhattan and downtown Brooklyn.
As you traverse the streets of LIC, you’ll notice the change from block to block. Industrial warehouses on one block, a bustling Main Street, followed by a park block with sleek luxury high-rise buildings. It’s all part of the LIC vibe.
For a small neighborhood, the transportation links are excellent. For starters, you just can’t beat living one subway stop from Manhattan (7 train). Other train lines include E, M, R, N, Q, and the G lines. There are also less conventional methods of transportation like the NYC Ferry, which offers three ferry landings. There is no shortage of CitiBike’s in LIC either. Many folks commute to work by way of cycling over the Queensboro Bridge.
