Long Island City’s new 38-story luxury rental building, The Forge, has launched leasing on its 272 apartments. The FXFOWLE-designed building, located at 44-28 Purves Street, offers a mix of studios, one-, and two-bedroom apartments, and just like anything with “luxury” in its description, they don’t come cheap.
Rent prices within the Brause Realty and Gotham Organization development project begin at $2,485/month for a studio and only get pricier from there. One-bedroom apartments go from $3,030/month while two-bedrooms start renting at $4,150/month.
Since the building is striving for LEED Silver certification, both apartments and common spaces have been furnished with eco-conscious finishings that include energy-conserving windows, solar panels, and an irrigation system that captures rainwater and reuses it to water the landscaped green spaces.
There aren’t a ton of renderings that reveal the actual apartments themselves, but according to an official press release, the apartments boast “Feng Shui-certified layouts” with oak floors, open kitchens with energy efficient KitchenAid and Bosch appliances, custom-tiled bathrooms, ample storage space, and individual washer/dryers in each home.

Wow, gorgeous…
On an unrelated LIC note, if you stand on the Queensboro Plaza platform and look South now, you can barely see anything except buildings. It’s crazy.
