Earlier today, Queens-based RockFarmer Properties unveiled a teaser site and first renderings for The Rowan, a seven-story, 46-unit condo under construction at 21-21 31st Street in Astoria. The amenity-packed property greets the street with a restrained yet cheerful, light-colored facade, designed by DXA Studio. Ground-floor retail will bring lively pedestrian action to a 210-foot-long stretch of the sidewalk.

The Rowan rises in the Ditmars-Steinway section of northern Astoria. Incoming families may treat the kids to no less than five playgrounds located within a several-block radius. The older crowd may attend the many dining and nightlife destinations scattered across commercial district by the nearby Ditmars Boulevard station of the N and W train. Everyone, however, would enjoy the Astoria Park by the East River that lies a few blocks west.

The brick facade pays homage to the established neighborhood. By contrast, slightly-staggered floors, uninterrupted floor-to-ceiling windows, and a glass-walled penthouse testify to the building’s modern aspirations. Shared and private roof terraces span the sixth and seventh floor, where BBQ stations and dining areas face dramatic panoramas of the RFK Triboro and Hell Gate bridges, with the Manhattan skyline stretching beyond.

The amenity roster, one of the most extensive among Astoria’s condos, includes a part-time attended lobby, virtual concierge, dedicated building staff, fitness center, indoor/outdoor lounge with kitchenette, dining area and library, garden, children’s playroom, soundproof music practice room, pet spa, package room, and bicycle and storage space.

Private outdoor space will feature in around half of the units, which range from studios to three bedrooms. Anticipated pricing ranges from $495,000 to $2.15M. A nearby sales gallery at 29-21 21st Avenue, expected to open in Fall, will present a built-out kitchen, living room, and bathrooms to prospective buyers. Building construction, which has recently commenced, is expected to finish in 2020.
