134-54 Maple Ave

A mid-rise cooperative constructed in 1962, this six-story residential building occupies a central downtown Flushing block near Main Street and Maple Avenue. The property contains studios, one- and two-bedroom layouts with higher-ceilinged corner units and some first-floor bedroom/bathroom configurations. Many apartments show traditional midcentury details — hardwood floors, 9-foot cathedral ceilings in places, sunken living rooms or formal dining areas, large eat-in kitchens, built-in features, and ample closet space including walk-ins. Common interior systems include elevators, on-floor laundry facilities, in-unit speakers wiring in many homes, and practical finishes such as granite or marble counters in renovated units. Shared services and building operations emphasize convenience and basic security: part-time doorman/night shift and weekend security coverage, an intercom/screen door system, Amazon package lockers in the lobby, and two washers and dryers on each floor. Maintenance fees are positioned as inclusive of most operating costs (heat, water, gas, garbage and snow removal in many units) with electricity commonly billed separately; a coop abatement or temporary operating assessments have appeared in listings. Parking is managed via a waitlist, and pet policies are handled at the cooperative level. Externally the block-front property is embedded in a dense, highly walkable urban neighborhood — immediate access to supermarkets, restaurants, banks, the public library, parks, Skyview Mall and Queens Botanical Garden. Transit connections include the 7 train, LIRR and multiple bus lines (Q27, Q26, Q58 and others), making it practical for commuters seeking street-level retail, neighborhood amenities, and an active downtown Flushing lifestyle.
