LIC listing looks to set single-family record in Queens

Taxi company founder bought PH for $2.5M in 2009

Taxi company owner Basil Messados hopes to set the new standard for luxury in Queens with the listing of his three-bedroom Long Island City penthouse condominium unit for $5.4 million. If it sells for that price, it would be the borough’s priciest single-family sale ever.

Messados bought the apartment at 46-30 Center Boulevard for $2.5 million in 2009. The home features a wraparound terrace, cathedral ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, a dining room and dark wood floors, according to the New York Daily News.

“Someone had to do it,” said listing broker Silvette Julian of Nest Seekers International. “This is a really unique penthouse.” The current sales record for Queens is held by a $3.35 million Long Island City condo that traded hands last year.
