The Zipper is a seven-story condominium conversion in Long Island City completed from an original 1931 industrial structure. The 41-unit building preserves historic brick façades, exposed wooden beams and generous ceiling heights while incorporating contemporary glass accents and condominium-grade finishes. Residences range primarily as two-bedroom layouts alongside studios through four-bedrooms; typical interior features include open-plan living and dining areas, engineered wood floors, casement windows, in-unit washer/dryers, built-in cabinetry and double-vanity bath arrangements. Kitchens are finished with marble counters and backsplashes, warm wood cabinetry and high-end appliances; primary baths reference Carrera tile and bespoke vanities with matte-dark fixtures. Shared spaces are designed to support both family life and socializing: a fitness center and yoga terrace, a furnished lounge with wet bar and terrace access, a children’s playroom, rooftop common space and building storage. Practical conveniences include on-site parking availability, private cellar storage, part-time doorman coverage supported by a virtual doorman, and smoke-free policies. Located in Hunters Point, the building sits within walking distance of waterfront parks, dining, galleries and transit links, offering an urban neighborhood lifestyle with an architectural blend of industrial character and modern residential amenities.
