Apartment Lease Assignment/Sublease Available – 1B1B in LIC, Move-in Early December!
I will be moving out due to work change, so my carefully maintained 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment is up for lease transfer. The lease runs until September 5, 2025, with the option to renew afterward. Looking for someone to take over the lease in early December! This building is highly recommended, known for its high renewal rate, peaceful atmosphere, great lighting, exceptional management, and respectful tenants—it’s rare to find a vacancy here!
🛋 Furniture Available
All the furniture shown in the photos will be for sale, I’ll publish individual prices soon, so stay tuned or reach out now to reserve items in advance!
🚇 Prime Location + Safety
Located in the heart of LIC, surrounded by amazing restaurants like Starbuck, Chipolte, Sweetgreen. The apartment is close to 7/E/F/R/W/M subway lines, and just a short walk to Court Square and Queens Plaza stations—super convenient! Although it’s in an alley, the area is one of the safest in LIC, with no unusual activity at night.
🎧 Excellent Soundproofing
Having toured many LIC apartments, I found most to have some level of noise because of their proximity to the subway. However, The Forge stands out with impressive soundproofing—it has double-glazed windows that block noise almost entirely unless you open them. You’ll barely hear the subway from inside!
☀️ High Floor with Great Natural Light
This 1B1B unit is on a high floor with amazing natural light, one of the reasons I quickly snatched it when it became available. There are only 8 units on this floor, with the trash room conveniently next door. Plus, the neighboring units aren’t adjacent to the bedroom, making it a quiet space—you can even sing with a mic at home without any disturbance!
🧰 Top-tier Building Management
The management and doormen here are outstanding—super friendly and professional. The staff will always greet you by name, with no signs of discrimination or unpleasant behavior. I’ve never had packages lost, and they even store fresh groceries in a refrigerated locker. The neighbors are friendly, with many pet owners, and the building offers Pilates classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
