LOCATIONWestern Queens. Defining its boundaries more exactly requires a short explanation: the thing is, there are two definitions. One is more "traditional" - dating from the days when Queens was not part of New York City and wasn't even called a borough - back then, the entire area comprising today's Western Queens was called Long Island City (that included Astoria, too). Nowadays, this definition is not very useful. Practically nobody living in Astoria, for example, would say "I live in L.I.C." (what they put as their mailing address is another matter). So, on our site, we consider Queens Plaza as the northern border of Long Island City. To the south, across the Pulaski Bridge, lies Greenpoint, Brooklyn, to the west - the East River and the eastern border is defined fairly naturally by the LIRR railroad tracks. SUB-DIVISIONSHunters Point is the southern tip of Long Island City. Most new development - rental as well as condo - is happening in this area. APARTMENTS & REAL ESTATEAlthough prices are lower than in Manhattan, they are higher than in neighboring Astoria. New condos are priced around $700 per s/f (2007 data). Selected Rental Buildings:
