It’s not everyday a rental opens up in a landmarked, pre-war townhouse in Long Island City. This two-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex is located at 21-51 45th Avenue, right off the Court Street 7 station. The unit has been pretty thoroughly renovated but it does retain some historic elements like exposed brick and hardwood floors. Overall, a nice find. Do you think the proximity to the subway and the quality of the space accounts for a monthly rent of $2,700?

To show how much the neighborhood rents have changed, I lived next door to this place from ’93 to ’96, sharing the top two floors with a couple friends for the grand total of $800 a month.
It’s not a bad price considering everything in LIC is expensive. The only downside (which could be a dealbreaker) is that the apartment is about 50 feet from the elevated 7 line.
The rental market isn’t great right now, but still that’s a steal.
