26-21 Union Street Cooperative

26-21 Union Street Cooperative is a six-story midcentury cooperative constructed in 1955, composed primarily of one- and two-bedroom residences. The masonry building presents a straightforward, utilitarian façade typical of postwar residential blocks in Flushing and is served by an elevator. Individual apartments feature practical layouts—eat-in or galley kitchens, formal dining or combined living/dining areas, master-on-main options and plentiful closet space—with finish levels ranging from original to recently renovated units with granite or quartz counters and stainless appliances. Shared spaces include a ground-floor laundry room, a community/fitness room and an on-site playground; the co-op also maintains storage lockers and both indoor and outdoor parking via waitlists for residents. Maintenance fees are noteworthy for including most utilities (heat, water, taxes, gas and electric), with modest extra charges for air conditioning, dishwashers or storage in some units. The building enforces owner-occupancy and board approval policies and typically restricts subletting. Located in North Flushing, the property sits within walking distance of shopping, supermarkets, the post office, library and schools, and is immediately accessible to multiple local buses and express QM routes to Manhattan, as well as nearby highways, supporting a commuter-friendly neighborhood lifestyle.
