I had the pleasure this week of closing on an apartment that I have come to love. The 4th floor at 47 Murray combines the elegance of a prewar loft with the epitome of modern luxury living. Set in an exclusive, four-unit condominium building in the heart of Tribeca, the apartment features soaring 13-foot ceilings, exquisite finishes, and expansive space for living and entertaining.
I am so grateful to be working with Town Residential which, in addition to commanding a powerful brand, gives its agents the freedom to think outside of the box and infuse their marketing initiatives with creativity and innovation.
I am so excited to see the first listings emerging for The Greenwich Lane in West Village. Named for one of Manhattan’s first roads, The Greenwich Lane is a 200-unit condo project in the West Village that’s hoping to do a few big things: revitalize the block between 11th and 12th streets off of Seventh Avenue, be environmentally friendly, combine historic structures with new construction, and offer “an unheard-of level of character and service.”
Earlier this week I had the pleasure of visiting a building that will be a game-changer for the real estate industry everywhere. 66 East 11th Street, coined “The Delos,” is a remarkable example of a shift that is happening in real estate – a shift toward a more holistic, wellness-centered approach to development.
TGIF, everyone! We’ve made it through another week and there are plenty of fun things to reward yourself for a job well-done. Make sure to visit an open house this weekend or try your hand at perfecting the perfect pizza pie. If pizza isn’t on your menu these days and you have an exciting Halloween costume you’re trying to fit into, then check out a chic yoga class in Little Italy or try a CrossFit class along the East River – if you dare.
Fall of 2013 is turning into THE season for new developments in New York City. With inventory at an all-time low, I’m thrilled to see these projects drawing closer and closer to opening. There are dozes of great new development projects taking place throughout the city. Here are three more to keep at the top of your list.
Once, living in a building with celebrity residents or prewar pedigree was the goal of every high-spending New Yorker. Now, the City’s nouveau riche have slightly different aspirations: “starchitect developments.” A recently coined word capturing the latest craze for celebrity architects, starchitecture has proven to bring real value to new developments, Crain’s reports. Developers around the world have proven eager to sign up “top talent” in hopes of convincing reluctant municipalities to approve large developments, of obtaining financing or of increasing the value of their buildings. A key characteristic is that the architect’s designs are almost always iconic and highly visible within the site or context.
