Echelon?

Posted by javerich at July 12. 2007
Would love to hear any comments about the Echelon. I had been looking at the waterfront highrises and love them, but Echelon looks great too. It's obviously farther from the water, which is a minus, and the immediate area doesn't look as nice. What do y'all think? Is it safe? Pros and cons?

Thanks SO much.

I like the echelon. I understand the views are amazing from the waterside hgh-rises, but I have gotton a bit tired of them livin in one for the past 15 years in manhattan. These smaller condos in lic may end up having a bit more community and less big city feel. Its a taste thing. Either is two blocks from vernon in hunters point.

Pros: view, parking, space, gym, roofdeck, convenience of more subways.
Cons:a bit farther from the water, a few of those pesky walk-thru items Arris discusses, but the contractor is still on site.
It's actually a very convenient location.

Echelon is a cool building, and is close to everything. C'mon you have Manducati's at the corner, what else do you want?

We bought at Echelon and we love it. They had done most of the items in the punchlist by the time we moved in and did the rest afterward. They are even doing work that we didn't notice at the walk thru and asked them to do after we moved in.
Please take a look at the forum rules and FAQ section.
