To the south, Thomson Avenue serves as the only pedestrian and traffic connector across the 3,600-foot stretch of Sunnyside Railyards between Queens Boulevard and 49th Avenue.įour-hundred-square-foot studios make up 40 percent of the building’s 168 rental units, available for around $2,100 per month. Jackson Avenue, Long Island City’s principal thoroughfare, marks the block’s northern boundary. On the other hand, the building’s prime location on 44th Drive also translates to persistent rush-hour traffic. Given that the nearest entrance to the Court Square station complex is 560 feet away from the future building’s front door, its residents would have a shorter commute to Midtown East than many of their counterparts in Lower Manhattan or the Upper East and West sides. The Twining Properties page calls the Watermark “an attractive and competitive option and appealing choice for Gen Y professionals,” while The Ashforth Company describes the units as “configured for single-professionals, shares, and professional couples.” This marketing strategy is not surprising given the neighborhood’s incredible transportation convenience, where the E, F, G, M, N, Q, R, and 7 trains place Midtown Manhattan, northern Brooklyn, and the nearby Astoria, Sunnyside, and Woodside neighborhoods within a seven-10 minute train ride. These amenities are in step with the now-expected package from any luxury rental that seeks to attract young professionals.
