Classic 1939 pre-war condominium in Jackson Heights Historic District featuring original architectural details and professional building staff. Top-ranked neighborhood with exceptional transit access and investor-friendly policies.
The Colton, built in 1939, is a pre-war condominium building located in the heart of Jackson Heights Historic District. The landmark building features classic pre-war architectural elements including 9-foot ceilings, original archways, and herringbone pattern hardwood floors throughout its units.
The building is professionally staffed with a live-in superintendent (who is also a licensed contractor), a full-time porter, and a part-time doorman. Current amenities include a gym, common laundry facilities, bike room, storage units, and wheelchair accessibility. The property is undergoing improvements with plans for an interior garden/courtyard and a roof deck with Manhattan skyline views.
Situated in a neighborhood that was ranked #3 among best places to live in NYC by Curbed NY, The Colton offers excellent transportation access via the E, F, M, R, and 7 train lines, providing quick connections to all five boroughs and both JFK and LaGuardia airports. The building will also benefit from the upcoming Interborough Express project, a 14-mile rail line connecting Jackson Heights to Bay Ridge.
The surrounding area features a vibrant cultural scene, with access to the Sunday farmers market, numerous dining options (some featured in The New York Times' 100 best restaurants list), and proximity to cultural venues like Terraza 7, Espresso 77, and The Queensboro. The building maintains an investor-friendly policy allowing subletting, though pets are not permitted.
