Lower Manhattan on the Waterfront

FEBRUARY 27, 2012

Lower Manhattan is one of the city’s waterside winners. . . NYC condos at Battery Park Manhattan

Financial District/Seaport: With the masts of the historic tall ships viewable from nearby buildings and streets, there’s no missing the “sea” in seaport. The South Street Seaport–where Fulton Street meets the East River, adjacent to the Financial District–is about to get an exciting makeover. Also, the Financial District (FiDi), encompassing the area south of City Hall Park (excluding Battery Park City and Battery Park), has enjoyed a recent boom in residential development. Ferry service adds a picturesque transit option.

A few top apartment buildings with great views, amenities and overall quality of life: Downtown by Starck at 15 Broad Street and The Collection at 20 Pine Street.

Battery Park City: One of the city’s youngest neighborhoods is one of its best for getting close to the water, with luxury high-rise residences by the score. One of New York City's best waterfront parks, Battery Park, attracts a year-round whirl of activities and events, and access to spectacular water views are right at your front door (and windows). Though at times it feels as if you’re not in Manhattan here, you’re also just a short walk from trendy TriBeCa.

With almost too many great residential options to choose from, a few top picks are: The Visionaire at 70 Little West Street and Riverhouse at 1 River Terrace.
