As the only apartment building within the highly desirable Forest Hills Gardens neighborhood, The Leslie is a prized destination for discerning New Yorkers. Built in 1942 by Steward Wagner and Alfred Fellheimer — the latter was a lead architect for Grand Central Terminal — The Leslie occupies the community's original sales office site with a commanding position opposite the charming Flagpole Green. The brick and limestone facade features Tudor and Art Deco details bordered by park-like grounds and a decorative garden wall.

The Leslie offers 94 apartments ranging from one- to three-bedroom configurations with gleaming hardwood floors, fantastic light and views, and excellent closet space. Bedrooms are spacious, and updated kitchens and baths appeal to modern sensibilities.

Residents of this pet-friendly elevator building enjoy full-time doorman and live-in superintendent service, video security, laundry facilities and a package room. Storage, and bike room.

Nearby E, F, M and R subway lines and LIRR trains put the rest of the city within easy reach.
