42-42 Union St

A mid-rise condominium constructed in 1986, this nine-story residential building offers primarily one- and two-bedroom apartments plus several penthouse units with oversized terraces. The architecture is straightforward and utilitarian, with a brick-and-concrete façade and modest balcony projections that provide private outdoor space for many units. Interiors typically feature open kitchen or eat-in kitchen layouts, granite counters in renovated units, wood or neutral flooring, and practical closet configurations including walk-in options in larger homes. Several apartments are configured with a main-floor bedroom and full bath, and most homes are outfitted with washer/dryer hookups or in-unit laundry. Common-area conveniences include an elevator servicing all floors, secured building entry, and a mix of recently updated and original-condition hallways. Outdoor amenities are limited to private unit balconies and larger penthouse terraces; parking is available for an additional fee with separate deeded spots in an on-site garage. The condo association covers cold water and cooking gas in its common charges; taxes and maintenance are positioned as relatively low compared with central-Queens norms. Located in downtown Flushing, the building sits within short walking distance of the No. 7 train, LIRR, multiple bus lines, Main Street retail, supermarkets, and parks, placing daily errands and transit within easy reach.
