Walking to Work: Five NoMad Residential Buildings to Consider
July 30, 2019
With its central location, easy subway access, abundant eateries, and the beautiful and tranquil Madison Square Park, NoMad is a great neighborhood to work in, but also a great place to live. In the past few years, numerous new and renovated apartment and condo buildings have added to the stock of great apartments available in our neighborhood. If you find the work-to-work lifestyle alluring and you’re thinking about moving closer to your office, here are five residential buildings within walking distance that you might consider.
Prism at Park Avenue South
One of NoMad’s newer residential communities, this unique 40-story glass tower was designed by architect Christian de Portzamparc to create a one-of-a-kind luxury New York living experience. Individual units feature floor-to-ceiling windows with skyline and river views, stainless appliances, wide-plank wood floors, in-unit washers and dryers, and more. The list of building amenities is long and includes a 24-hour concierge, fitness center, children’s play area, lap pool (inside), steam room, sauna, yoga/spin room, screening room and in-building access to the 6 line. You’re also steps away from many great dining options, including Pret a Manger and Tarallucci e Vino on-site. Units are available to rent ranging from small studios to three-bedroom, two-bath apartments, all with no broker fees.

The Capitol
If you are looking for the ultimate in city living (and you happen to have a dog), you’ll want to check out this particularly pet-friendly high-rise. This 370-unit building was built in 2000 and offers a selection of sleek, modern, no-brokerage-fee apartments ranging from studios to two-bedrooms, many with stunning city views. Apartment units feature wood floors, stainless appliances and marble baths. In addition to valet services, the building itself offers such amenities as a 24-hour attended lobby, fitness center, billiards room, a screening room, library, and dog-`wash station.

Chelsea Landmark
Another centrally located high-rise, this 2005 apartment building is designed with busy New Yorkers in mind. The 36-story Chelsea Landmark features no-brokerage-fee studio, 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom apartments, each with open floor plans, luxury finishes, and plenty of natural light from oversized windows. Building amenities include 24-hour concierge services, on-site fitness center, party room, library and game room with billiards, and golf simulator. You’ll particularly want to check out the landscaped rooftop deck with stunning panoramic views of the city. Best of all, with its easy access to NoMad and nearby Chelsea and Flatiron, you’re steps away from some of the best dining, shopping, and nightlife in Manhattan.
