One of the city's most handsome high-rise apartment towers, The Horizon has a plan that angles its center facades to its wings, a simple but superb form that works well here.

The 44-story tower was developed by Jeffrey, Reuben and Daniel Glick of the Glick Organization, which also developed the nearby Manhattan Plaza project just to the south and had plans, subsequently aborted, for a twin-towered, full block residential complex just to the north of the Queensborough Bridge. The latter plans would have significantly improved the ambiance of that neighborhood just as the organization's two large towers here have helped substantially to create a major new "luxury" residential enclave in a site that was formerly predominantly industrial and commercial.Enclosed pool on the 44th floor.
