Description

Loft-Like 1 Bed 1 Bath with 15-Foot Ceilings in The Zipper Building.

Welcome to Residence 3C at The Zipper Building — a striking, loft-inspired home defined by soaring 15-foot ceilings, oversized north-facing windows, and a seamless blend of historic character and modern design. Originally a 20th-century zipper factory, The Zipper has been thoughtfully converted into a boutique 41-unit condominium that preserves its industrial roots while offering contemporary luxury. Authentic architectural elements and a distinctive aesthetic set the tone for a residence that feels both timeless and unique.

Inside, natural light pours into the expansive living and dining area, where dramatic ceiling heights create an open, airy atmosphere rarely found at this price point.

The kitchen pairs clean, modern design with high-end functionality, featuring Bosch refrigerator and dishwasher, a Fisher & Paykel range, Samsung microwave, and sleek cabinetry complemented by stone countertops.

The spacious bedroom offers a peaceful retreat, while the bathroom is finished with refined, spa-inspired details.

Long Island City sits directly across the East River from Midtown Manhattan, reachable in one stop on the 7 train. LIC has added more than 12,000 residential units since 2015, transforming former industrial blocks into a corridor of glass-tower condos, converted loft co-ops, and rental high-rises along the waterfront. Gantry Plaza State Park, MoMA PS1, and the Hunters Point Library anchor the neighborhood’s cultural identity. Median condo prices run roughly 30-40% below comparable Manhattan waterfront units, drawing both first-time buyers and investors looking for appreciation in one of the city’s highest-growth zip codes.
