LIC for renters

Image source: Curbed – this is Northern Blvd, where Brooklyn Grange and COFFEED are located

Curbed has put together “A Renter’s Guide to the Rapidly Gentrifying Long Island City” where they touch upon a handful of elements in the neighborhood that would be of interest to renters. This includes:

• Kinds of rental units available (keyword “hodgepodge”) and their ranges – $1,600 for older one bedrooms, to $2,500 for newer ones, to $6,000 for swanky 3 bedroom waterfront apartments
• Pricey and not so pricey areas of town – Dutch Kills vs. Hunters Point
• Neighborhood highlights in the arts and culture vein – here are our choices for what to do in LIC
• A few sample listings

We missed seeing restaurant recommendations, though (here are our choices for where to eat in LIC), since LIC has great food.

So take a gander – do you agree with their assessment? Leave us a comment here or on twitter at @queensnycity.
