About Astoria

Lower rents, an easy commute, and a food scene that punches above its weight. Astoria has become one of Queens's most sought-after corners — a mix of long-time residents and new arrivals drawn by the architecture, the transit, and the everyday convenience. Our agents work these blocks weekly and know which buildings come up, and when.

Market Note

Inventory in Astoria is tight and well-priced units move within days. We typically see 26 days on market, about 3% above last year.

What makes Astoria Astoria

Dining & cafés

From corner coffee to destination dinners, Astoria eats well at every price.

Green space

Parks, waterfront, and tree-lined residential blocks within a short walk.

The commute

Multiple trains put Midtown and Downtown within an easy ride.

Spend a Saturday in Astoria: a slow morning at a neighborhood café, a walk through the local park, browsing independent shops in the afternoon, and dinner at one of the blocks our agents send every client to.

Did you know

Astoria is one of Queens's most photographed neighborhoods — and one of the first our founders ever leased in.
