Long Island City, NY
A 700,000 square foot 12-story office building located just over the Queensboro/59th Street Bridge, connecting Manhattan to Long Island City, Queens.
AN HISTORIC BUILDING
The 400,000 square foot Brewster Building, originally built in 1911, housed a manufacturer of horse-drawn carriages, Rolls Royce cars, Brewster cars and World War II airplanes. With the completion of a major expansion and renovation by Brause Realty in 2003, Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. fully leased the building as its operational headquarters for over 1,500 employees.
EASY ACCESSIBILITY
One of the main features of this building is its accessibility to Manhattan. The building is located at the foot of the Queensboro Bridge and served by eight subway lines. In one stop, you are in Manhattan, right next to Bloomingdales. The subway easily connects to Grand Central Station and other major subway lines. There are also buses nearby that provide quick transport to Manhattan.
AN EMERGING AREA
The neighborhood is filled with museums, galleries and great, ethnically-diverse restaurants as well as significant new construction of residential and commercial space.
