Make the most of every moment at Petra.
An exciting addition to Astoria, this boutique 20-unit structure resides in a lively, friendly neighborhood that you'll want to call home. And it all begins with the name.
Petra is an homage to Astoria's Greek heritage. The name -- "stone" in Greek -- is as distinctive as the building itself. This striking building immediately commands attention with its linear concrete facade. Once inside the boldly contemporary design is reflected throughout the elegant residences. This masterwork of innovative materials, warm finishes, flowing lines, and bright spaces unites sophisticated style with comfort and convenience. The result is a home to be treasured.
The studio, one- and two-bedroom options are all precisely crafted using carefully considered premium materials, a blend of classic and modern. All are executed with superior design elements, including plank wood flooring and innovative triple-pane Schuco windows that envelop each apartment in plenty of natural light while also reducing outside noises, providing the ultimate energy efficiency and comfort.
Kitchens are polished yet practical, ideally suited to preparing that culinary masterpiece or simply brewing up some morning java. Seamlessly integrated European-styled Frigidaire Gallery ranges with advanced induction cooktops and built-in air fryers, Blomberg refrigerators and dishwashers are ideally suited to your every need. These select appliances are complemented by the custom cabinetry, composed of matte white upper cabinets and finished with warm wood below, stylishly completed with quartz countertops and a slim-line subway tile backsplash. This is your canvas for cooking and entertaining.
Bathrooms are outfitted with select Kohler toilets and fixtures, and soaking tubs, adorned with premium wall and floor tiling in a soothing neutral palette.
When it's time to unwind, residents will enjoy the rooftop tiled deck with its marvelous views -- a relaxing spot to hang out with neighbors, family and friends. Other amenities include a laundry room with Miele washers and dryers, storage units, Amazon locker system, bicycle storage, and on-site parking, along with leading-edge Latch Smart Lock entry/access. Two-bedroom apartments are also conveniently equipped with in-unit laundry appliances.
Petra's convenient location provides efficient access to Manhattan and elsewhere. The 30th Avenue Station (N and W lines) is within easy reach; another option is the Astoria Boulevard Station, with connections to bus service to LaGuardia Airport and Q19 local bus service. Both stations have been recently upgraded and modernized.
Astoria is a community with a rich history of inclusiveness and stability, popular for the "small town" charm of its urban setting. Its many diverse cultural offerings, including Kaufman Astoria Studios and the related arts district, are close by, along with plentiful shopping and outstanding dining. From vintage clothing stores to friendly local businesses and even big-box retailers, Astoria has it all.
Some of the many neighborhood go-tos include Ovelia, which offers a taste of modern Greece through its cuisine, craft cocktails and ambiance; Milkflower, an Italian joint that's so much more than simply a neighborhood spot, with creative pizzas among its offerings; Parisi Bakery, a local staple since 1969, where the art of bread making lives on; Nneji, a small takeout shop that's acclaimed for its delectable West African dishes and grocery items; and Under Pressure Espresso Bar, popular cafe to linger with a favorite coffee drink and Greek pastry; among the many local favorites.
Pedestrian-friendly streets, the waterfront and Astoria Park along with other green spaces -- including Rainey Park, Athens Square and Socrates Sculpture Park -- all add to the neighborhood's appeal.
Welcome to Petra. Welcome home.
