The Foundry is a boutique condominium completed in 2008 in Long Island City’s Hunters Point waterfront neighborhood. Low-rise in scale, the building rises four stories and contains 57 residences, primarily one-bedroom plans along with larger duplex and multi-bedroom loft-style layouts. Architecturally it presents a contemporary loft aesthetic with oversized windows, vaulted and double-height ceilings in select units, and private entrances for some townhouse-style homes. Interiors commonly feature hardwood floors, eat-in kitchens with granite counters and stainless steel appliances, walk-in closets, in-unit washers/dryers, and high ceilings that emphasize light and volume. Common areas include an elevator, entrance foyer, on-site super, package room and a fitness center. Outdoors the property offers an expansive shared roof deck and landscaped courtyard/garden as well as building balconies and a range of private terraces and patios at the unit level. Building services are oriented to daily convenience: a part-time doorman/concierge, package handling and garage parking available for purchase or fee. The Foundry is pet-friendly and smoke-free with elevator access and bike storage. Located on a quiet, tree-lined block one to two blocks from the East River waterfront, residents are within easy walking distance of the LIC Landing promenade, ferry and multiple subway options, neighborhood parks, grocery and retail, and a growing collection of restaurants, cultural venues and schools.
