8900 170Th St

A midcentury, 12-story cooperative built in 1963 offering a mix of studios, one- and two-bedroom residences. The exterior reflects practical postwar apartment design with a modest footprint set on an urban lot in Jamaica, Queens. Units emphasize functional layouts—eat-in kitchens, formal dining zones in larger homes, and occasional first-floor bedrooms with full baths—alongside higher-end finishes found in some units such as marble, granite, and quartz counters. Tall ceilings and large picture windows provide natural light and city views in many apartments. Building-level conveniences include an elevator bank with double elevators, a staffed doorman, on-site laundry, and high-speed internet access. Shared systems and common areas are maintained to support everyday living rather than luxury hospitality: service features focus on security and convenience for commuters. Parking is not highlighted in listings; proximity to major transit (subway, LIRR, bus hub) and roadways substitutes for resident parking for many. Pet policies and valet services are not specified; co-op governance and typical building rules apply. The location places residents within walking distance of shopping centers like Queens Center Mall, the Jamaica transit complex, libraries, parks, and institutional neighbors including York College—supporting an urban, transit-oriented lifestyle.
