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.
