Carter’s Review

"This six-story, red-brick apartment enclave at 50 East 8th Street between Greene and Mercer Streets on the south side of Eighth Street has lushly landscaped, four-step-up entrances.

The building s entrances are in its recessed lightcourts that also contain the building's fire-escapes."

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "value-packed" post-war gem offers "surprisingly spacious" apartments at "budget-friendly prices" in the "heart of NYU territory." While sporting "classic pre-war touches," modern conveniences include "in-building laundry" and an "on-site super." The "moderate board" maintains "reasonable policies," making it particularly "accessible to parent-backed student buyers." Note: land-lease status affects financing but keeps prices "attractively low."
