At The Beacon at Garvies Point, a new
luxury community being built in Glen
Cove, it’s all about location, location,
location.
The community’s developers, Uniondale
based RXR Realty, recently took
the Press on a tour of the newly fi nished
units.
“The Beacon at Garvies Point, a resort
style neighborhood in Glen Cove,
off ers potential buyers the opportunity
to live a carefree lifestyle,” says Joseph
Graziose, executive vice president of
residential development and construction
at RXR.
The born-and-bred Glen Cove resident
has been a passionate revitalization
advocate, and says he’s excited about
the city’s transformation.
Conveniently located an hour from
Manhattan and the Hamptons and
nestled within 56 waterfront acres
with sweeping views, The Beacon at
Garvies Point boasts 167 LEED-certifi ed,
one-, two-, and three-bedroom luxury
condominiums, and is the fi rst phase of
RXR’s massive development.
“RXR’s total investment in Glen Cove
— through the Garvies Point and
downtown Village Square project
— will top over $1 billion,” Graziose
says. “From the residential buildings,
Harbor Landing (luxury rentals) and
The Beacon, the project is bringing together
a professional workforce with a
commercial and retail component that
will enhance the surrounding North
Shore communities as well as revitalize
Glen Cove’s waterfront. It’s been a labor
of love.”
The Beacon’s residents have access to a
variety of wonderful outdoor spaces,
including courtyard terraces, rooft op
terraces at the penthouse level, and outdoor
balconies for nearly every home.
And there’s private parking.
Units are priced from $700,000 to $3
million.
Experience all that Garvies Point has
to off er and enjoy Long Island’s biggest
playground with 28 acres of green
space, sunset views, and easy access to
open waters. Other draws: A one-mile
waterfront esplanade with outdoor
seating; connectivity to Garvies Point
Preserve: a 62-acre wooded nature preserve
that off ers miles of trails and bike
paths, as well as playgrounds, parks, a
dog park, boardwalk and beach. And
there’s more: an outdoor amphitheater
and ecology pier, plus space for Glen
Cove community events. Also, great
schools and golf courses.
Lucky residents always get what they
want and need at The Beacon, say the
developers, thanks to a cornucopia of
amazing amenities that guests can enjoy
as well. That includes a lounge, library,
club room, game room, screening room,
24-hour fitness center, yoga room,
seasonal outdoor heated swimming
pool, 23 rooft op terraces, two outdoor
kitchens equipped with Viking grills,
fridges, and prep sinks, and direct access
to a waterfront esplanade.
“Everything will be taken care of for
you, and you get peace of mind with
24-hour security,” says Graziose.
A friendly doorman greets you as you
enter an impressive wood and stone
lobby leading to spacious, beautifully
appointed and welcoming common
areas that serve as an extension of
your home, providing comfy spots
for reading, relaxing, or entertaining
guests. There’s even a private meeting
room.
Expertly designed by Safavieh and
echoing their fabulous décor throughout
the three model units (also for sale),
these unique spaces feature transitional
style, on-trend furnishings, as well
as striking accessories and lighting
further enhanced by eye-catching
artwork.
