Lightsquare Condominium (Corcoran Group)
Over the course of Hell's Kitchen's recent residential building boomlet, much of the new development has taken shape in the westernmost sections of the neighborhood in a move that offers both a central address and some detachment from the most bustling sections of Manhattan. However, as newly launched condominium Lightsquare shows, new development is starting to make its way further east closer to Times Square. Buyers do not seem to object, though — five of the building's 29 units have already entered contract.
The first round of availabilities starts at $890K for one-bedrooms, $1.45 million for two-bedrooms, and $1.999 million for three-bedrooms. The sales launch comes almost exactly a year after an offering plan with a $53,445,000 sellout price was filed in July 2023.

Lightsquare rose on the former site of two non-descript commercial buildings between Eighth and Ninth Avenues. Construction topped out at seven stories high at the beginning of 2024. More recently, a site visit saw a light brick facade and oversized windows in place behind netting.
Residents of Lightsquare are set to enjoy a robust indoor/outdoor amenity package, but the building's greatest perk may be its central address in close proximity to New York's most exciting cultural offerings. Several Broadway theaters are almost directly to the east, including the venues where recent Tony Award winners Stereophonic, The Outsiders, and Hell's Kitchen are now running. Off-Off-Broadway mainstay The Producers Club is a few doors west. The iconic Birdland Jazz Club is down the street from Lightsquare, and the building is a short distance from Hudson Yards and Hudson River Park.
Finally, there is no shortage of dining options: Restaurants on this stretch of West 44th Street alone range from a Shake Shack outpost on Eighth Avenue to French brasserie Marseille on Ninth Avenue, and the address allows for easy access to giant Times Square chains and independent Hell's Kitchen restaurants alike. If there is anywhere else residents wish to go, the entrance to the Times Square transportation hub is located at the end of Eighth Avenue.
