Neighborhood Profiles

Upper East Side

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its quiet, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.

Fordham

Fordham centers on the Grand Concourse and Fordham Road, one of the Bronx's busiest commercial corridors, with six-story Art Deco apartment buildings, prewar walk-ups, and brick rowhomes lining the surrounding residential streets. The B and D trains at Fordham Road, the 4 train on the Jerome Avenue Line, and Metro-North at Fordham Station provide multiple transit options. The New York Botanical Garden's 250 acres and the Bronx Zoo border the neighborhood, and Fordham University's Gothic campus occupies the historic Rose Hill Manor at its center.
