Over the last several years, we’ve watched a weed-strewn lot transform into a sleek development called the Highbridge Condominium. Named for its park-facing locale, the eight-story building at 446 West 167th Street presents 39 for-sale units with prices starting below $600K. Furthermore, purchasers will receive the coveted 421A tax abatement for 15 years coupled with very low common charges.
The Highbridge was brought to market by HAP Investment Developers, a growing Midtown-based real estate firm with residential projects sprinkled up and down Manhattan island. The building launched sales last fall and remaining availabilities have studios going for $576K, one-bedrooms from $550K, and two-bedrooms from $890K. These prices are significantly below the Manhattan listing median where a two-bed condo comes in at $2,177,500. Occupancy is anticipated for summer 2018.

The building was designed by Daniel Goldner Architects and flaunts a glass and metal envelope juxtaposed with sand-colored brick. Interiors are equally contemporary and bestow open layouts, floor-to-ceiling windows, and solid white oak floors. Open kitchens are equipped with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and custom Italian cabinetry. Each home has a washer/dryer bundle and PTAC units with an integral thermostat.
Shared amenities include an exercise room, virtual doorman, bike storage, 30 square feet of private storage for each apartment, and a common roof deck.
The building is situated in a tranquil corner of Washington Heights, a short walk from New York-Presbyterian Hospital and Columbia University Irving Medical Center. Across Edgecombe Avenue lies the 110-acre Highbridge Park, whose highlights include its namesake High Bridge, which is the city's oldest standing bridge, the sizeable Highbridge Recreation Center and Pool, and a plethora of grassy and wooded areas for passive and active usage.
