Queens, NY The Durst Organization has unveiled new renderings of 20 and 30 Halletts Point, the second major phase of the Halletts Point development designed by Handel Architects, with 647 residential rental units, retail, and the first section of waterfront public open space.

Bedrooms have black-out shades for rest. Every apartment has a washer and dryer as well as a smart thermostat that is programmable and adjustable via an app. The building comes with pre-wired building-wide high-speed wi-fi that residents can subscribe to and activate within minutes of moving in.

The 39,000 s/f of amenities include an amenity terrace featuring a pool with sweeping city and river views, sun lounges, BBQ grilling and outdoor dining areas.

7,955 s/f of ground-floor neighborhood retail will activate the street and bring in new services and amenities to the neighborhood. Across the street is the Brooklyn Harvest supermarket at 10 Halletts Point.
