Corporate Housing in Long Island City
Furnished apartments in LIC's high-rise corridor, directly across the East River from Midtown, with the fastest non-Manhattan commute to Grand Central in the city.
Furnished corporate housing in Long Island City
Long Island City is the most efficient corporate-housing trade in the outer boroughs. Court Square, Hunters Point, and the East River waterfront form a wall of new-construction high-rises (Hayden, Watermark, ALTA, Galerie, the Citi building) with full amenity packages, rooftop pools, full gyms, package rooms, and skyline views into Midtown. The 7 train runs Hunters Point to Grand Central in 8 minutes; the E/M/R from Queens Plaza is similar to Lexington Avenue. For finance, consulting, and Big Law teams in Midtown East, this is often a faster door-to-desk than Upper East Side options.
We place relocating employees, project teams, and travel nurses (Mount Sinai-Queens is in-borough; NYP and NYU Langone are a 20-minute commute) across the LIC inventory. The market is dense enough that we can usually present 3-5 options inside 48 hours, including pet-friendly and family-sized units. Pricing has held meaningfully below Midtown for equivalent quality.
Long Island City is in Queens. If you need Long Island itself, see corporate housing on Long Island in Nassau County or Suffolk County.
