Large NYC Apartments More Popular Than Ever

As more growing families are deciding to stay in New York City—rather than move to the suburbs—there’s a greater demand for large New York City apartments.

New York, NY – March 6, 2012 – (RealEstateRama) — Whereas real estate condo developers in the past focused on apartments for singles and couples, they are lately rethinking their strategies and changing layouts to create three-, four- and even five-bedroom apartments. According to one recent report, sales of large New York City condos exploded in the past five years, with three-bedroom apartment sales quadrupling and four-bedroom apartments tripling.

New York City is full of family-oriented neighborhoods with good public and private schools, parks, playgrounds and activities. Manhattan neighborhoods such as the Upper West Side, Tribeca and the Financial District, as well as Park Slope in Brooklyn are just a few of the neighborhoods considered family friendly.

Many of New York City’s luxury apartment buildings accommodate families by offering large multi-room units, on-site amenities and kids’ activities. The Rushmore, a luxury apartment building on the Upper West Side, offers a kids’ playroom, a pool, and a theater room. The luxury apartment building The Avery, also on the Upper West Side, has a party room and a playroom. Of course, pleasing the kids is only part of what makes these buildings family-friendly. Both of these New York City condo buildings offer amenities like doormen, concierge services, parking garages, and fitness rooms—more than enough to make the parents happy, too.
