The most expensive condo in Queens just raised its asking price. The penthouse at 46-30 Center Boulevard in Long Island City made news last year when its price actually dropped from $4.25 million to $3.65 million during the so-called Amazon effect, a time when condo prices soared in the neighborhood as the tech giant prepared to move there. Sticking with its outlier trend, the penthouse is now listed for $3.988 million, despite Amazon pulling out of its planned headquarters in LIC earlier this year.

In 2015, a local taxi mogul listed the penthouse at $5.4 million. Prior to that, the apartment was purchased in 2009 for $2.7 million. As part of a pilot tax abatement program, taxes for the property are just $33 per month.

Located just north of the Pepsi-Cola sign, the apartment, located in the building “The View,” measures 2,260 square feet and contains three bedrooms and four bedrooms. The corner unit boasts floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing for open views of the East River and Manhattan.

The open floor plan links the spacious living room with the kitchen, which includes a large granite center island and Viking and SubZero appliances. A small dining area sits in its nook next to the kitchen and the private outdoor terrace.

Amenities include in-unit washer/dryer, central air, and membership to the East Coast Club, a fitness center across the street. The club includes a heated pool, roof deck, spa, and screening room.
