The Trader Joe’s effect is sweeping across the Upper West Side — with one location already open at The Corner at 200 West 72nd Street and another on its way to the foot of 100 West Condos (100 West 93rd Street): Following the news that the beloved grocery store has signed a lease for 20,000 square feet in the base of the building, investment firm ABC Properties bought nearly half of the 280 units in the 30-story building for $47.6 million. An initial batch of apartments were converted to condos in 2007, and now another helping of newly-renovated apartments are being offered. The released homes seek to optimize space and convenience while retaining a sense of luxury.
In this article:
Currently, all the newly-released condos are in contract, but more may come to the market down the line. The most recently-listed units had cozy, 493-square-foot one-bedrooms priced from $796,000.
The living rooms offer enviable light and views, and some units have custom millwork to accommodate flat-screen TVs. Kitchens now have integrated Liebherr refrigerators and Miele dishwashers amongst the two-tone custom cabinetry and white quartz backsplashes. Spa-like baths feature Kohler and Grohe fixtures along glass enclosures. All apartments have in-unit washer/dryers, and select units have private terraces.
When Trader Joe’s opens later this year, residents will be ecstatic to have it just an elevator ride away. Official amenities include a planted terrace, fitness center, bike room, garage, children’s playroom, and live-in super. 100 West Condos is located one block from Central Park, near a choice of subways at 96th Street, and amidst top schools and local favorites.
