115 Norfolk is the latest in a string of condos built in the last several years on the block, including the Blue Condominium at 105 Norfolk and the Switch Building at 109 Norfolk.
115 Norfolk was designed by Gryzwinski + Pons, with one, two, and three bedroom units; 24 in total. This new construction condo offers [...]
A stand out pre-eminent rental building, The Stanton at 196 Stanton Street, epitomizes this wonderful new rebirth. Locate at the corner of Stanton & Ridge Streets, this building offers tenants not only a beautifully designed residence, fantastic amenities and access to the Hamilton Fish Park (only one block to the east), but WALKING DISTANCE to the vibrant nightlife of both the Lower East Side and the East Village to boot.
Everywhere we look on the Lower East Side we see these new condos going up in this super hip neighborhood. The Lower East Side is definitely hot, but don’t feel left out if you are not ready to buy an apartment. At 10 Rutgers you can rent in a post-war building and still live in one of the coolest neighborhoods.
At 37 Canal Street you will find a little bitty restaurant with a lot of fun and lots of atmosphere. Les Enfants Terribles has a funky gourmet menu with a mixture of French and African dishes. The restaurant is known for its tiny space, but delicious neighborhood bistro fare and its fun, loud, and lively crowd.
The Lower East Side is known for its trendy and chic stores and restaurants. It is no surprise that The Sweet Life, located on Hester Street at the corner of Ludlow Street, brings the same hip vibe in the form of candy and gourmet chocolates.
The nightlife on the Lower East Side is very cool. Poco - located at 33 Ave B, right on the corner of 3rd Street - is one of the newest additions to this trendy area. I have been there twice already and have loved it both times.
The reason that I love 21 Ludlow is because it gives buyers who are looking to own in the up and coming area of the Lower East Side an opportunity to do so. Over the past few years we have seen many new condominium developments go up on the LES. The majority of them are huge loft like apartments with starting prices well over a million dollars.
This is one of the most unique condo conversions in the downtown LES area. The transformation of the 1912 Beaux Art structure was more than 10 years in the making. Rich with history, the building once housed the first Jewish language newspaper in the United States. Wedged between Rugters and Jefferson Street on East Broadway, the condominium’s grand styled façade is unsurpassed and its internal renovation is just as beautiful.
62 East First Street is the home of a quaint new condo building nestled on the boundary between the trendy East Village and its Lower East Side neighbor at the corner of 1st Street and First Avenue. Although its white and red brick exterior has the sleek factor to parallel its modern interior, it does a very good job of blending in to the low-rise character of the neighborhood without clashing. Furthermore, its small size will appeal to those who seek privacy in the middle of the hustle and bustle of downtown.
For those who think all doughnuts are alike: think again … and then think yet again because you may very well wish you had not read further.
For Manhattan residents tired of CNBC specials and dire Goldman predictions about the economy, taking a walk around your neighborhood could very well be the escape needed.
Tonight, like weekend clockwork, the Lower East Side was abuzz with activity. As we considered our options a glass of wine, we found ourselves emboldened to venture across Allen to the quaint French offerings of Jadis (meaning: yesteryear) It fit our mood perfectly: bustling yet not overwhelming, quaint without pretention, and service with no attitude (yes, it really is French).
The LES might as well be the MVP neighborhood of 2008. Reinventing itself as the latest chic, ultra-hip destination in Manhattan, it shed its bargain basement this year with the help of new luxury buildings, like The Ludlow Lofts.
The ads for this place tell potential residents to “Live like a Rockefeller and Party Like a Rockstar” good advice for a building that was rumored to have been used as the set of a Sisqo video.
The Katz’s Deli’s neighbor has a tough rental procedure, stiff rents and some pretty harsh critics, but for those hipsters looking to live in a self-proclaimed “work of art,” there is no substitute.
There is no way to mistake which building on the LES is BLUE. Panels of colored glass give the exterior an almost hypnotic feel to the high rise and add to the mood within the residences.
It keeps in line with the luxury standards, but adds a bit extra for those willing to shell out the cash. For example, the 14th-floor unit comes equipped with an outdoor shower on its 950-square-foot terrace. That’s right - you can soak in the city view as you suds up each AM. Modest? No need to worry - the building is stories higher than others around it, giving you plenty of privacy for just under a cool $3 mil.
