Property Description for 33-39 80th Street, 2

New COVID protocol requires all showings and Open Houses are conducted by appointment only with all COVID and Fair Housing forms submitted 24 hours before showings. Wrapped around three exposures of the most iconic Jackson Heights building, this massive four-bed, two-and-a-half-bath home offers a wood-burning fireplace, formal dining, exquisite original hardwood floors, four garden-facing bedrooms, a windowed galley kitchen, an in-unit washer-dryer, ample closets, built-in shelving and much more. The living room is spacious enough to house a grand piano and gracious seating around the fireplace, while the adjacent formal dining room has a floor-to-ceiling window and convenient access to the kitchen. The master bedroom has its own en-suite full bath, while all bedrooms also enjoy a charming view of the historic garden. Additionally, the co-op provides each apartment with a storage room. Built in 1923-25 and designed by Andrew J. Thomas, this complex was once home to film icons like Charlie Chaplin and Alfred Hitchcock. The Towers is perhaps the most iconic and sought-after building in Jackson Heights. It exhibits all the elements which set the precedent for further development in Jackson Heights, with features such as a massive private garden, ornate architectural and sculptural elements, iron and glass double doors with fanlights, stone trim at the towers, and the celebrated stone griffons flanking its iron gates. The Towers is a U-shaped structure comprised of eight buildings that span an entire city block on 34th Avenue, with its wings spanning all the way to Northern Blvd. It encases some of the largest apartments in Jackson Heights, complete with fireplaces, high ceilings, gorgeous hardwood floors, massive windows and more. It has a live-in super, laundry facilities, elevators, storage, and is pet friendly. As you would expect based on its prime location, the building is within striking distance to all local amenities and all forms of transportation, including the Roosevelt Avenue express hub. This is a complete package of a rare NYC home, which we are excited to bring to the market. Showings are by appointment only. Call listing agent to schedule!

Jackson Heights | Queens

Quick Profile

Jackson Heights has one of the most diverse populations in the city, and over 100 languages are spoken here. With this cultural diversity comes supporting restaurants, bars, shops and cultural opportunities. It is a mix of commercial and residential properties. There is a wide range of shops and service businesses, so that anything you would need, from a barber, to a pharmacy, to clothing, and food is available right in the neighborhood, no matter which culture or language you might need these services provided in. 

Jackson Heights has three nicknames, based on micro-neighborhoods with the neighborhood as a whole. Little India occupies an area on 74th Street, while parts of 73rd Street are known as Little Pakistan. Little Columbia is along 37th Avenue.

A large portion of Jackson Heights has been designated as an historic district, from Roosevelt Avenue to Northern Boulevard, between the east side of 76th Street to the west side of 88th Street.

Jackson Heights was a planned community, where the first “garden apartments” were created in buildings constructed around central gardens and green spaces that gave neighbors a place to meet and socialize with one another, created places for children to play, allowing light to come into the apartments and air to flow freely through them. These gardens are private and only residents have access to them. Passing by the buildings, you might not even guess the gardens were there, as they are not generally visible from the street. 

Additionally, there are some mid-rise apartment buildings. Some of these are rentals, some are co-ops, and some are condos. There are a few attached row houses that provide housing for one to three families. 

As much as Jackson Heights might be full of noise and mix of cultures, it also has a quieter side, where the various cultures mix and mingle and learn about each other against a backdrop of beautiful architecture and a culinary landscape that brings the world to Queens.
