67-25 Clyde St

The Illinois is a mid-rise, postwar cooperative constructed in 1955 and rising seven stories with approximately 182 residences comprising studios, one- and two-bedroom apartments. Architecturally modest, the property reflects mid‑20th‑century apartment design with a brick façade and a landscaped central courtyard that organizes the building’s outdoor common areas. Interiors vary from classic layouts—formal foyers, galley kitchens and gracious living/dining combos—to renovated open-plan units featuring breakfast bars, islands, granite or quartz counters, recessed lighting, and high ceilings. Many apartments offer multiple exposures, generous closet space including walk-ins and his-and-hers closets, and recent upgrades such as new windows and modernized kitchens and baths. Shared amenities emphasize neighborhood convenience and family life: a renovated lobby with keyless/virtual entry, on-site laundry, bike and package rooms, storage lockers, an enclosed garage (waitlist) with EV charging, a private outdoor space with a tot lot/playground, and rooftop/solar improvements. Building services include an on-site superintendent and low maintenance that typically covers heat, water and electricity. The coop’s policies are owner-friendly in some respects (sublets allowed after two years, sponsor units on occasion) while restricting dogs in many listings; cats are often permitted. Located in the heart of Forest Hills, the address places residents steps from Austin Street retail and dining, multiple subway lines (E/F/M/R), express buses, the LIRR, West Side Tennis Club and Forest Hills Stadium, combining suburban calm with immediate urban transit and neighborhood commerce.
