The Empress Elena Condominiums is a mid-rise, six-story condominium built in 1964 that occupies a neighborhood block in Elmhurst, Queens. The property is primarily configured with studio and multi-room condo units, many arranged as alcove studios, junior four layouts or two-bedroom corner residences. Public circulation is served by an elevator and the building maintains a live-in superintendent and an on-site laundry room. Typical interior traits reported across units include eat-in or enclosed kitchens, renovated cabinetry, granite or quartz counters, stainless steel appliances, hardwood or luxury vinyl plank floors, generous closet space including walk-in closets in some units, ceiling fans, and formal entry foyers. Exterior amenities are minimal and limited to mailbox services; an attached indoor parking garage exists with spaces available for rent though a wait list is sometimes noted. The building’s condition is described as well-maintained with multiple renovated apartments and occasional units offered for full renovation. Located within a short walk of Queens Center and Queens Place shopping, Grand Avenue subway access, restaurants and grocery options, the condominium emphasizes convenient urban suburban living with strong transit and retail proximity rather than extensive on-site recreational features. Pet-friendly and allowing substantial financing options, the property suits a range of buyers seeking compact city homes or rental-income opportunities in central Elmhurst.
