Renting in Dutch Kills
Dutch Kills, the Long Island City blocks north of the Queensboro Bridge approach around Queens Plaza, was until recently a district of warehouses, auto shops and small factories. The 2001 rezoning of Long Island City opened it to high-rise housing, and all five buildings indexed here were completed between 2016 and 2021.
Sven, the Durst Organization’s 71-story tower on Northern Boulevard, is the largest and tallest, with 958 apartments. Tower 28 rises 58 floors on 28th Street, Alta+ stands nearby on Northern Boulevard, and ARC and QLIC add mid-rise buildings with hundreds more apartments. No single company manages more than one of them.
The neighborhood’s strength is transit. Queensboro Plaza (7, N and W) and Queens Plaza (E, M and R) put Midtown a stop or two away. The streets are still in transition, with active construction and industrial uses, but Dutch Kills Green and the restaurants of Astoria and Court Square are close.
