With an abundance of new development on the market all over Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Long Island City, the sheer volume of choice can be overwhelming to some. Many of the soaring new buildings offer oversized windows, high-end finishes and appliances, and expansive amenity suites, but which one is the perfect fit?
The answer to that question can only be determined by a buyer’s preferences and priorities. This can come down to amenities - e.g., the lack of a garage may not even register to some buyers, but could be a deal-breaker to car owners. Location is also a key factor for owners who wish for an easy commute to their offices or their children's schools, or just for close proximity to restaurants and nightlife. To that end, we have compiled a set of pros and cons for some of the most exciting new buildings on the market.
