Eagle Lofts

Eagle Lofts is a rental apartment building at 43-22 Queens Street in Long Island City, Queens, developed and managed by Rockrose Development. It combines the converted Eagle Electric factory with a new high-rise tower, near the Court Square office and residential district.

Court Square, the Citigroup Building and MoMA PS1 are a short walk away, and Queens Plaza is just north. The Hunters Point waterfront and Gantry Plaza State Park are about fifteen minutes west. The E and M stop at Court Square-23rd Street, the 7 and G at Court Square, and the E, M and R at Queens Plaza.

Completed in 2018, the development holds 790 apartments, with its new tower rising 54 stories. Eagle Electric, which made switches, outlets and other electrical fixtures, was one of Long Island City’s major manufacturers for much of the 20th century, and Rockrose kept part of the old factory as the base of the project.

Combining a converted industrial building with a high-rise gives Eagle Lofts a wider mix of apartment types than most new buildings in the area, from loft-style spaces in the older structure to tower apartments with long views over Midtown.
