Review from the web

I had the opportunity to stay at The Greenpoint building for a week during a business trip, and I absolutely loved it. The building is beautiful and located in an ideal area with great amenities. Its proximity to the water and the ferry system made it easy for me to travel into the city. The gym is top-notch, and the building has plenty of common areas. The surrounding areas are also growing and developing. I was able to see two living areas, both of which were clean and made good use of space. The studio I stayed in had a bed that retracted into the ceiling when not in use. Despite being a bigger guy, I was initially concerned about its stability, but it worked well. The Lounge area was a perfect meeting area with a killer balcony. The KAWS sculpture was cool. I don't get it, but it's very artistic. I only wish the rooftop access was a little higher, but it still provided a secluded area with great views. I used the Garden area well to get out and enjoy a quite secluded place to work. I spent a lot of time there. Everyone I encountered, living or working in the building, was terrific. This would be my top choice if I needed permanent residence in NYC.

Congratulations – you've just landed in NYC – center of the universe. Everyone needs to experience this thrilling concrete jungle to truly understand the magic that is Manhattan. Watch as Tompkins Square becomes a winter wonderland, graffiti becomes poetry, and dreams become realities in this city that never sleeps.

It's no surprise that New York City is the most populous city in the United States; everyone wants to take a bite out of the big apple. Spanning just over 204 square-miles and overseen by the Statue of Liberty who professes to protect the tired, poor and huddled masses, NYC is home to more than 8 million people living in the city's five boroughs, with more than a third of them born outside the U.S. Welcome to the true melting pot of America. And a fair warning: bagels and pizza outside of this city will never compare.

New York's main airport, John F. Kennedy International, is one of the busiest in the world, and it's easy to see why. This buzzing, bustling city has been the subject of endless stories--from Broad City to Friends, Sex and the City to Hamilton--so it's no surprise it's the most-visited city in the U.S. No matter where you go in NYC, you're sure to find yourself in a neighborhood fully charged with character.

New York City is also a breeding ground for big business. With the NASDAQ, New York Stock Exchange, Dow Jones & Company, Moody's, Bloomberg, JP Morgan Chase, and Morgan Stanley, New York sits at the helm of the global economy. Then you have your media moguls - HBO, Showtime, MTV, Univision, CBS, Food Network, and DC Comics. And of course, there is fashion, with familiar brands like Bloomingdale's, Ann Taylor, J. Crew, and Calvin Klein all headquartered in the city. America's sports organizations all call NYC home- the NBA, NFL, NHL, and MLB have their headquarters here. With massive finance, media, communications, and technology industries, and an ever-evolving creative and entrepreneurial class, it's no wonder they call it the city that never sleeps.

Additionally, 67% of listings feature hardwood floors, adding a touch of warmth and character to the space. Keep in mind that these figures are based on historical data, but they should give you a sense of what to expect in the current market.

How much does it cost to rent in New York, NY and when is it cheapest?

New York's average rent prices have risen by about 9% to $4,258 per month, on average, for all rental sizes and types. The average cost of a 1-bedroom increased 10% to $4,279 per month, while 2-bedrooms saw a significant jump of 16% to $5,012 per month.

Prices in New York vary depending on the time of year. September is the month with the highest rent, with prices increasing by 13% compared to January. However, January is the most competitive month, with more demand compared to available inventory. In contrast, October is the least competitive month, with less overall demand compared to available inventory, making it a potentially good time to find a deal.
