We absolutely love our experience living at Lyra. The building is brand new, well-maintained and has great amenities including a gym and rooftop with stunning views of NYC, as well as a golf simulator that my partner really enjoys. The best part however, is the wonderful team that works here. Everyone is amazing, always smiling and welcoming. They all go the extra mile to make you feel special. I highly recommend the building.
