Right now there is a lot of new apartment buildings being built in LIC and that is where I planned on moving once the lease on my apartment is up.

I wanted to know if there is a website that I can go to that will list all of the buildings that are currently being built, and they're uses. If they had expected completion target dates that would be even better. I browsed through the DoB website and didn't find what I was looking for although that could be because I didn't search the right place for the right thing.

Does something like this exist, or no?

A lot of new moderm buildings are poping up everywhere in LIC.
I think they pretty pricey too.
Are you looking to buy or rent?
Last year I went to check out a new building on jackson ave, and a 1br was renting for $2,600

We are looking at Long Island City actually. We live in Sunnyside currently and being a little bit closer is all the better when it comes to leaving for work.

we are looking to rent, but our lease isn't up until September, so we would be looking at something that would be completed in July ish so we would have time to check it out, and then secure it. We've been looking at the current apartments that have been recently built, and due to them being recently built, they are all basically full vacancy, at least through their websites.

This is probably wishful thinking, but if you are one of the first tenants to move into a new building, would you get a discounted rent? or would it be pricier because the demand would be high and then once the initial demand wore off the rents decreased a little bit?

I'm looking for a new apartment instead of an older apartment as for one, I like new amenities, (such as a stove that isn't older than me), and I also like the idea of having a new building where nothing is falling apart inside or out.
I don't want to get into a debate about new vs old, but a new build is for me. I like old architecture to look at, but will not live in it unless I have to.
