115-25 Metropolitan Ave

A six-story pre-war cooperative built in 1925, this Tudor-style apartment building sits on a quiet, tree-lined block near Forest Park in Richmond Hill/Kew Gardens. The façade and massing reflect early 20th-century residential scale; interiors typically feature high ceilings and hardwood floors that recall the building’s original character. Units range from one-bedroom efficiencies to larger three-bedroom layouts, many with formal dining areas, generous closets, and windowed kitchens that have been modernized in numerous residences. Common elements include an elevator, a welcoming foyer and shared courtyard with seasonal plantings and a grill, plus on-site laundry, a live-in superintendent, bicycle storage and storage lockers available for a fee. Building operations are co-op governed; maintenance levels are marketed as low to moderate. Parking is primarily street-level; public transit access is strong with nearby E/F subway service, LIRR connections and multiple bus lines. The property is pet-friendly with board approval and attracts residents seeking pre-war architectural details combined with contemporary kitchen and bath updates. Neighborhood amenities — shops, restaurants, schools and Forest Park’s trails, playgrounds and golf course — are within short walking distance, shaping a suburban-in-the-city lifestyle.
