Kew Gardens was conceived as a leafy garden community, and that thoughtful planning still shows in its architecture. Tudor-revival and English-cottage-style apartment buildings line streets like Lefferts Boulevard and Austin Street, their brick-and-stucco facades framing original steel-casement and leaded windows. Tucked along the curving residential blocks are detached and semi-detached homes with Bay Windows, gabled roofs, and period wood sashes. This is some of the most distinctive housing in Queens — but the original glazing, much of it nearly a century old, now leaks heat, sticks in its tracks, and fails to seal. Premium windows here must respect the neighborhood’s storybook character while bringing it up to modern standards.
We treat Kew Gardens’ Tudor-revival charm as a feature to protect, not paint over. We offer divided-light and decorative grille configurations that echo the neighborhood’s original leaded windows while upgrading to insulated, energy-efficient glass that eliminates steel-casement thermal bridging. Our custom manufacturing matches the non-standard pre-war openings found across the area, and our bay replacements restore both comfort and curb appeal in detached homes. For apartment buildings, we coordinate with management to keep appearances uniform and approvals smooth.
Let us visit your Kew Gardens home, measure your original openings, and show you windows that honor the neighborhood’s character while saving you money.
