Month: March 2022

The longer and warmer days of spring are just around the corner, and New Yorkers are more than ready to start enjoying them. And with 40,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor amenities, ARO’s no-fee apartments in NYC’s Midtown neighborhood provide every conceivable comfort and convenience. So let the luxuriating begin! 

Of course, the breadth of ARO’s amenities means there is always something new to discover. There are endless ways for residents to relax and be entertained all year round, no matter what it’s like outside. Whether doing laps in the indoor pool, perfecting their swing at the golf simulator, or breaking a sweat in the state-of-the-art fitness center, options abound for staying active. The game room is ideal for all ages, while the member’s lounge offers a sleek site to enjoy a cocktail with a friend or to kick back in a home away from home.

With the warmer weather emerging, it’s time to pull the short sleeves and sandals out of

storage and explore the range of ARO’s outdoor amenities. At the literal pinnacle of ARO is the ARO Sky Club. With blue skies and the Hudson River and Manhattan skyline as a backdrop, residents can take a refreshing plunge in the outdoor pool. Afterward, they can sunbathe beside the gardens and dig into the latest bestseller, or just savor a meditative moment of repose.

For a change of scenery — whether working from home, entertaining guests, or simply enjoying an evening cocktail — the Garden Terrace offers comfortable outdoor seating and tables among greenery and flowers in bloom. And nothing heralds the celebratory feel of spring and summer like a barbecue. The terrace is equipped with a full grill and ample space to host and feed a crowd, or to perfect that grilled sweet corn salad recipe for dinner at home.

Embrace these opportunities to relax and relish the warmer weather. Contact the leasing team today at rent@aro.nyc and discover all of the springtime amenities at ARO.

In the Algin Management no-fee apartments, New York City becomes an ideal place to stay fit this spring. With resort-quality amenities at buildings like ARO and Sessanta, keeping to a wellness routine becomes a daily pleasure rather than a challenge. Each building has within its walls an elite fitness center and an indoor pool where residents can carry out their weekly exercise routine, or get in a quick cardio session whenever the mood strikes.

There is nothing more empowering and mood-lifting than watching your body become more powerful and toned after weeks of sticking to a daily lap swim. But it can be just as satisfying to emerge from your home office after a long day, stretch, and head straight to the pool for a quick, enlivening dip. In fact, just knowing you don’t have to leave home to jump in the pool or pack in a HIIT workout changes your entire relationship to how exercise functions in your life.

ARO offers 40,000 square feet of amenity spaces that were designed with exactly this approach to urban living in mind. More than a building, it’s a way of life where wellness needs are not only part of the building’s design but are also woven into the services it offers.

With the URBN Playground team at ARO ready to lead you through personal training sessions or yoga classes, the perfect workout/life balance becomes so easy to achieve, you will look forward to every session. As Amy Blitz, co-founder of URBN Playground puts it: “A person looking at a new or existing rental or condo is choosing a lifestyle, rather than a cold unit of space. This involves interactions that are unique, memorable, positive, and personal. Such interactions are the hallmarks of what URBN Playground does, drawing from our background in hospitality and infusing it into the work we do.” With this ethos in mind, the URBN Playground team puts on monthly wellness events not only to create a space to move in the community but also to bring a wealth of knowledge to those looking to learn more about fitness. 

They are also the creative minds behind the amenities at Sessanta and Hillary Gardens, where this extra level of care and attention adds a personal touch to your wellness journey. At Sessanta, residents have a 40-foot pool and a state-of-the-art fitness center — both offer light-filled views of trees and the building’s English Garden. This collection of fitness amenities brings the deep calm not only of endorphins but also of an elegant, greenery-filled aesthetic. Rather than something you have to plan and travel for, a workout can become part of the core experience of living in these no-fee Manhattan apartments, where wellness is all a part of the design.
