Hunters Point Neighborhood Guide
When people talk about Long Island City, they're often actually talking about Hunters Point. Just a single subway stop away from Midtown, this neighborhood was once a working class, industrial area. Today it's in the middle of a transition into a highly sought-after premier residential neighborhood. With incredible views of Manhattan, new luxury condos popping up everywhere, and the riverfront green space on the East River, it's shaping up to be pretty close to a perfect neighborhood.
Architecture and landmarks
The red brick, 19th-century brownstones that line Hunters Point on 45th Avenue for the blocks between 21st and 23rd Streets are now their own historic district and are sold for nearly $1 million each. In a trip to Court Square you'll find the Citi Tower, a 58-story-high skyscraper that's well known as the only skyscraper in the borough of Queens. Other important landmarks in the area include a historic firehouse and police station, both of which were featured on the TV show Third Watch, and the New York State Supreme Court House. Lovers of green spaces will appreciate Gantry Plaza State Park - though it's simple and small, it's perfect for taking in views of the East River.

Those looking to go to Brooklyn can hop on the G train and the E and V lines can be boarded at Court Square. There's also limited service for the Long Island Railroad at Borden Avenue and 2nd Street. The Midtown Tunnel opens up into this neighborhood, and offers easy access to Manhattan via the Long Island Expressway. Finally, there's a New York Water Taxi connecting Hunters Point to Wall Street.
Schools
As of 2016, a new elementary school was set to be built in Hunters Point, and would offer space for as many as 600 students. Until that school is complete, the only school options within the neighborhood are private schools like St. Francis Assisi School. However, there are more than a dozen schools in nearby Long Island City.

Things to do
P.S. 1 Contemporary Art Center has been open since 1971 and has been a staple of the neighborhood as it's gone through significant changes.
