The New York attorney general has only just accepted a $227 million offering plan for GALERIE (22-18 Jackson Avenue), but excitement over the condominium rising on the former site of a taxi garage is already mounting in the New York area and abroad. A website in China was the first to roll out the a few renderings and now, an official site has been launched for GALERIE, revealing its luxe amenities and beautiful Paris Forino-designed interiors set against the culturally rich Long Island City neighborhood, which enjoys easy access to Manhattan.
According to the site, there are 19 available residences with an impressive range of layouts including everything from alcove studios and one-bedrooms with home offices to nearly 1,500-square-feet three-bedroom units. Pricing starts at $665K for a studio and go up to $1.875M for a three-bedroom.
The filing for GALERIE was the most valuable in Queens in 2017 and puts the 175 apartments at an average price of $1.3 million, exactly at CityRealty’s median price for Long Island City condos.

Floor-to-ceiling windows look out over sweeping skyline views. Renderings show open living areas, wide plank white oak flooring throughout, and sleek state-of-the-art kitchens with Frosty Carrina Caesarstone countertops, backsplashes, and islands. The master spa-like bathrooms feature soaking tubs, showers tiled with honed Zebra-mink marble and
Bianco Dolomiti Stone mosaic floors.
Building amenities will include a gym, pool, library, rooftop terrace, children’s playroom, party room, lounge, garden, porte-cochere, and more. GALERIE is across the street from MoMA’s PS1, one of the many cultural venues in the immediate neighborhood. It is between the Court Street and 21 Street-Van Alst subway stations for an easy trip to Manhattan or Brooklyn and surrounded by popular restaurants and bars.
Construction is nearly complete on GALERIE, and the glass façade of the building designed by ODA is on the rise. It is next door to 22-22 Jackson Avenue, another brilliant ODA building which architecture critic Carter Horsley calls “the city’s best reincarnation of Brutalist architecture.” Its dynamic design, sleek homes, and abundance of amenities place it firmly among CityRealty’s top 10 Long Island City rentals.
