The Echelon

The Echelon is a 13-story boutique condominium completed in 2006 in Long Island City, offering primarily one- and two-bedroom floor plans with occasional convertible/den layouts. The building’s architecture reads contemporary yet understated, with large windows and several units reporting floor-to-ceiling glazing that emphasizes skyline and water views. Interiors typically feature open-plan living rooms with modern kitchens—stone counters, stainless steel appliances, hardwood floors—and in-unit washers and dryers; some residences include walk-in closets and windowed bonus rooms used as home offices or dining alcoves. Shared spaces are scaled for resident convenience: a landscaped furnished roof deck with panoramic Manhattan vistas and barbecue stations, a recently upgraded fitness room, cold storage/FreshDirect pickup, bike storage, and building storage. On-site services and operations include a part-time doorman (extended evening coverage reported), a live-in superintendent, and management amenities such as package handling. Parking is available for purchase; the property is pet-friendly. The location is highly transit-accessible—within a few blocks of the 7, E, M and G trains, LIRR access nearby, ferry options, and quick road connections—situated amid LIC’s cultural anchors (PS1, Gantry Plaza, museums) and neighborhood retail and dining, supporting an urban, amenity-forward lifestyle.
