As of April 23, 2021, the number of Manhattan apartments publicly listed for rent came in at 9,441 listings,, 500 less than earlier this month. While it has been well-reported that many landlords have been warehousing units in the hopes of listing empty units once rents begin to rise, however, there has been a rapid decline in inventory and a stabilization of rents over the last several months. Since the beginning of April, rents continued to inch higher, rising from a median of $3,022/month on April 1, to $3,098/month today. The stat includes listings not only in rental buildings but also within typically higher-priced condo, co-op, and townhouse buildings as well.

While the popularity of neighborhoods may ebb and flow, access to fresh air, sunlight, and inspiring views never get old. Below, take a look at the latest rental price improvements from the past week featuring triple-mint listings with either private outdoor space or iconic skyline views.
