For boutique living in a no-fee NYC apartment, The Townsway takes some beating. Well-appointed rooms and enviable extras combine with a happening, action-packed neighborhood at close quarters. This is renting as it should be. 

The Apartments

A 15-story complex of apartments located just off Lexington Avenue, The Townsway is a building from the 1960s that’s been luxuriously reimagined to cater to the comforts of the 21st-century renter. Generously proportioned homes feature contemporary kitchens with stainless-steel appliances, newly fitted bathrooms with marble units, and bedrooms with ample walk-in closet space. These rooms combine to make a wonderful space for working from home, relaxing after a day in the office, or entertaining on weekends. The windows in each room bring in floods of natural light while offering up vistas of this covetable neighborhood. More of which in a moment.

The Extras

As a resident of The Townsway, you can safely leave your car in the on-site garage before being welcomed inside the recently redesigned entryway by a 24-hour doorman. There is also no need to leave the building for any laundry needs as there is a dedicated laundry room on site. On site you will also find the live-in resident manager that is available to answer any questions 24-hours a day. 

The Neighborhood

Culture. Dining. Green spaces. Transportation links. When it comes to the location of these no-fee apartments, Townsway residents are well and truly spoiled. Do your daily Vinyasa yoga workout at Equinox. Go see Maya Lin’s sublime outdoor sculpture of Atlantic white cedar trees, Ghost Forest, in nearby Madison Square Park (on till November). Laugh your head off at New York Comedy Club, home to some of the funniest people in the city. Devour the excellent sirloin steak sandwich, washed down with a punchy IPA, at Taproom 307. And, anytime you fancy heading further afield, The Townsway is close to the 6 subway and N/R/W lines, express bus lines, and FDR Drive. NYC is your oyster.

With a Downtown edge and Uptown glamor, Murray Hill is high on the list of must-live neighborhoods in NYC. And with its food scene, charming architecture, nightlife, and quick-commute location, it’s easy to see why the area is popular with everyone from fashionistas to Wall Street traders. Add to that the amenity-filled, no-fee rentals you’ll find in Murray Park and Laurence Towers, and tree-lined Murray Hill is truly an ideal place to call home. Let’s see why:  

Work-Life Balance

Whether you work in Midtown or Downtown, Murray Hill’s location can’t be beaten thanks to easy access to trains, buses, and Citi Bike stations. Want to take the scenic route to work? Just head to the water and hop on the East River Ferry that will have you Downtown in no time. 

An easy commute doesn’t just mean less stress during rush hour but more time for enjoying Murray Hill’s singular delights with the important people in your life. 

A Foodie’s Paradise 

While you could spend the night in at your no-fee Murray Hill rental and cook in your well-equipped kitchen, you’ll be tempted to explore the culinary scene in the area. 

Step into the minimal and chic Kajitsu—a Japanese restaurant dedicated to the practice of “shojin,” which places a particular focus on the quality, freshness, and beauty of the food being served. Their menu changes seasonally, but the high caliber of their vegetarian menu stays evergreen.

For a more carnivorous culinary experience, Wolfgang’s Steakhouse gives you a chance to roll up your sleeves and indulge in the most mouthwatering, cuts-like-butter steak you’ve ever had the pleasure to consume. Start off with their crispy crab cakes, then work your way through their porterhouse for two—even if you get it just for yourself. 

Parks Aplenty 

One of the most pleasant parts of living in Murray Hill is access to some of the city’s best outdoor activities and greenspace. So, pack a cooler, grab a picnic blanket, and get out there and explore. For a kid-friendly afternoon that’s just a few blocks away, Madison Square Park is a tranquil oasis with one of the city’s choicest playgrounds. Enjoy an afternoon in the sun chatting with friends in Bryant Park as you sit on the iconic green bistro chairs dispersed throughout the area. Or grab a drink from the Bryant Park Grill. 

Sightseeing in Your Backyard

New Yorkers don’t often get the chance or the time to explore the city’s most famous landmarks. But in Murray Hill, you’re within 15 minutes of some of the biggest ones. Take a ride to the top at 

the nearby Empire State Building. Watch the crowds scurry about the magnificent architecture of Grand Central Terminal. Or indulge in a little art deco with a trip to the lobby of the Chrysler Building. 

No matter what aspect you enjoy most, Murray Hill gives you a chance to do it all. Contact Algin Management today to find world-class options right in the heart of one of Manhattan’s favorite neighborhoods.
