Skyline Tower, 3 Court Square

Skyline Tower ranks as New York City’s tallest skyscraper outside of Manhattan. As its name suggests, the 778-foot-tall, 68-story building offers dramatic views of the skylines of Manhattan and Long Island City even from the lower floors, thanks to sheer, floor-to-ceiling windows and an advantageous location across from a tree-lined, rowhome district to the west. Condo apartments range from studios to four bedrooms and offer crisp, contemporary finishes throughout.

Skyline Tower’s amenities are some of the most extensive of any condominium development. The atrium-like, stone-clad lobby is attended by a full-time doorman; a valet is available for the on-site parking garage; a concierge may take care of wide-randing needs ranging from dry cleaning arrangements to restaurant reservations. A double-height resident lounge offers a billiards table and screening zones. The fitness suite comes with a fully-equipped gym, a yoga/Pilates training room, a 75-foot indoor pool, and a sauna with a whirlpool tub and a private treatment room. A children’s playroom is a fitting indoor alternative when the weather isn’t ideal for visiting the neighborhood’s many playgrounds. Even the four-legged friends are accommodated with a pet spa.

The building holds a dedicated entrance to the Court Square-23rd Street station of the E, G, M, and 7 trains, which put Midtown within a five-minute commute. The nearby Queensboro Bridge opens in splendid view from the tower’s west- and north-facing units and allows for convenient access to Manhattan by car, bike, or even on foot. Long Island City’s thriving Court Square neighborhood offers new shops, restaurants and cultural venues as new mixed-use buildings open nearby. The next-door CUNY School of Law makes Skyline Tower a perfect residence for aspiring lawyers and university faculty, while the parks, playgrounds, communal areas, and the iconic Hunters Point Library at the nearby East River waterfront delight residents of all ages, while two ferry stations offer easy, breezy water rides to Manhattan and Brooklyn. In addition, Skyline Tower sits within easy reach of vibrant dining and nightlife districts in nearby Sunnyside, Astoria, and Greenpoint.
