Property Description for 35-27 80th Street, 42

Experience elegant living in the renowned Greystone Apartments in the heart of the historic district of Jackson Heights. Enter the marble hallway into the distinguished 4th floor prewar apartment with old-world details including 9-foot ceilings, original crown moldings, inlaid walnut hardwood floors, and an original, fully operational dumbwaiter with pulleys and bell system for the super. An abundance of afternoon sunlight streams into the living room from two western-facing windows overlooking the exterior gardens and treelined street. The formal dining room, easily convertible to a 2nd bedroom or study, receives plenty of morning sunlight through its eastern-facing window onto the Greystones' lush courtyard garden. A stained-glass transom window adorns a door leading into the central hallway. The spacious and bright main bedroom has a generous California closet installed along an entire wall. The oversized, windowed, eat-in kitchen with a brand new Liebherr refrigerator and Frigidaire dishwasher is large enough to fit a table and chairs. The bathroom has an original pedestal sink, marble window sill and a tub/shower for flexible use. Furry family members and W/Ds are welcome upon board approval. In addition to a shared interior garden, 35-27 is the only Greystones co-op with a roof deck full of plants and flowers, with a table and chairs, plus recliners for entertaining. The roof deck boasts expansive views of Queens and the distant NYC skyline.

The neo-Tudor Greystone Apartments, originally named the Garden Apartments, were designed in 1917 by the architect George H. Wells upon completion of the elevated subway into Queens. The 14 limestone and gray-brick buildings with exterior and interior gardens line 80th Street between 37th and 35th Avenues. Each building is an individual walk-up co-op with a separate board. The units come with individual storage lockers located in the basement along with laundry facilities. Sublets are not allowed. Restaurants and shopping, including neighborhood favorites Table Wine and Stand Alone Cheese, are less than a block away on 37th Avenue. Nearby are recently renovated Travers Park, the year-round Jackson Heights Farmers Market, and an open pedestrian street on 34th Avenue. Five subway lines (7, E, F, M, R) and buses to Manhattan and LGA are within close proximity.

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.
