The Ritz Plaza,
235 West 48th Street

Doorman No fee rental located in Midtown West, between Broadway & Eighth Avenue

Overview of The Ritz Plaza at 235 West 48th Street

Life in the heart of it all does not get any better than this. Bordered by the bright lights and unending energy of Broadway, The Ritz Plaza is always in the spotlight. And yet, near all of this Times Square activity is a true neighborhood filled with fantastic foods, great bars and plenty of transportation. The Ritz Plaza is a 43-story luxury building with a full-time doorman, on-site valet, indoor swimming pool and fitness center, member’s lounge, and a wide range of social activities, all of which come together to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere and a chic, convenient place to call home. Nearby transportation includes the Rockefeller Center B/D/F/M, 49th Street N/R/W, 50th Street 1, and 50th Street C/E.

The building’s owner/manager, Stonehenge NYC, hosts over 100 complimentary resident events every year that range from Yappy Hour (happy hour for you and your pup) to cooking classes. Its use of Rhino directly insures the landlord for apartments and keeps residents from worrying about security deposits.

Carter’s Review

"This huge luxury rental apartment building at 235 West 48th Street between Broadway and Eighth Avenue was an important precursor to the spectacular renaissance of Times Square in the mid- and late-1990's.

Erected by Jason Carter in 1990, this 479-unit, 44-story slab tower added a luxury residential component to this very active commercial district east of Eighth Avenue."

Broker & Resident Comments

This "luxury" high-rise in the "heart of Times Square" offers "spacious" apartments with "good storage" and some with "breathtaking views." While the "well-equipped gym" and "lap pool" are "appreciated amenities," the "world-class doormen" and "responsive maintenance staff" earn particular praise. The "central location" near "every subway line" is "unbeatable," though the "active fire station" next door makes for a "lively soundtrack." The "recently renovated" common areas and "resident activities" add appeal, though some find management "challenging" to work with. "Perfect for newcomers" to the city who want to be "in the middle of it all."
