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.

Gowanus

Gowanus features a striking mix of 19th-century brick warehouses, Greek Revival rowhouses, and new glass-and-steel condominiums rising along the canal waterfront. The F, G, R, D, and N/W trains are accessible at nearby Smith-Ninth Streets and Fourth Avenue-Ninth Street stations, with Atlantic Terminal a short walk north. Washington Park and the Old Stone House landmark anchor the neighborhood's green space, while a major rezoning is bringing thousands of new residential units and waterfront parkland to the area.
