Most of all, available neighborhood development sites are attracting world-class architecture, with prices on the rise and builders placing bets that deep-pocketed buyers will want to be part of the action — in luxury settings, no less.

Tribeca/Lower Manhattan is changing in a very exciting way. The new developments such as 30 Park Place, 111 Murray and 100 Barclay are going to be great investments. You can also get great resale deals east of Church Street. It may not be there yet, but all of the new developments like 56 Leonard will be changing the way we look at homes east of West Broadway.

111 Murray Street

The soaring silhouette of 111 Murray Street graces the New York City skyline with a bold new shape. Designed by acclaimed architects Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates, the sculptural tower gently expands as it moves upwards culminating in a graceful, distinctive crown.

The crystalline façade is visually striking from both outside and inside the building, offering uninterrupted views of the city and its surrounding rivers in every direction.

Take a look at TriBeCa on a macro level to view the neighborhood’s continuing rise. Roughly 526 condominium units will come to market south of 14th Street in 2015, with 60 percent of them — some 316 — slated for TriBeCa alone, according to data compiled by agents, the Marketing Directors. In 2016, roughly 823 condo units are projected to come online in this zone, with 35 percent of them — or 288 — in TriBeCa. It would be an understatement to say that neighborhood builders have never been busier.
