Neighborhood Profiles

Central Park South

Central Park South is one of the most recognized and sought-after residential stretches in the world. Often associated with 'Billionaires' Row,' the neighborhood offers unparalleled, unobstructed views of Central Park. The real estate market is a mix of legendary pre-war cooperatives, historic hotels-turned-residences, and soaring ultra-luxury glass towers that provide the pinnacle of New York City living and white-glove service.

Chinatown

Chinatown occupies a dense section of Lower Manhattan centered on Canal Street, where 10 subway lines converge including the 6, J, N, Q, R, W, and Z trains, making it one of the most transit-rich neighborhoods below 14th Street. The housing stock consists primarily of prewar walk-up buildings alongside newer condominium developments and the 44-story Confucius Plaza residential tower. Columbus Park, one of the city's earliest public parks, and the 7.8-acre Sara D. Roosevelt Park provide open green space along the neighborhood's edges.
