Residing at Sessanta, Algin Management’s no-fee apartments in Manhattan on the Upper West Side, brings residents an elevated lifestyle made even better by the inclusion of an on-site tennis court. The unique privilege of practicing your game right where you live is a testament to the exclusivity of our amenities. This exceptional sports feature, accessible only to the Sessanta community, seamlessly blends convenience with significant health benefits. 

Having this sought-after amenity at your disposal allows you to enjoy a game of tennis whenever the mood strikes, without the need to travel or deal with crowded public courts. Designed with U.S. Open-quality finishes and surrounded by a tranquil English garden, the court provides a professional environment to practice your serves, perfect your forehand, or engage in a spirited doubles match. Integrating tennis into your daily routine couldn’t be easier.

And if it’s wellness benefits you’re after, there is nothing like a game of tennis to lift your mood and maintain your fitness. Hitting the court enhances aerobic capacities, lowers resting heart rate and blood pressure, and boosts metabolic function. According to the Mayo Clinic, it also strengthens muscles, increases flexibility, and fosters mental health by developing tactical thinking and problem-solving skills. The sport can reduce stress, sharpen focus, and promote social interactions that enhance overall mental well-being. Additionally, regular tennis play contributes to better coordination and balance, which are beneficial in daily activities. The game’s dynamic nature ensures a comprehensive workout, engaging different muscle groups and promoting cardiovascular health. Moreover, the social aspect of tennis, from doubles play to interacting with peers in a club setting, supports emotional health and creates a sense of community. 

Beyond the tennis court, Sessanta offers a lifestyle of luxury and convenience tailored to the needs of its residents. You’ll find a 3000-square-foot modern fitness center, a relaxing temperature-controlled lap pool, and communal spaces for socializing, entertainment, and remote work. The building’s prime location on the Upper West Side provides easy access to parks, cultural institutions, and top-tier dining, extending the benefits of living at Sessanta beyond its walls. Whether you’re enjoying a morning workout, relaxing in the beautifully landscaped courtyard, or exploring the vibrant neighborhood, Sessanta serves as the perfect base for every aspect of your life.

Considering your next move? Think of Sessanta as more than just a place to live — it’s a lively community designed to enhance every facet of your daily living. If you’re looking for a residence that perfectly balances health-focused activities and upscale living, Sessanta might just be your home court.

Discover the perfect blend of classic and contemporary New York living at Murray Park, a stunning no-fee apartment building located in Manhattan’s vibrant Murray Hill neighborhood. This handsome 21-story brick building, situated on East 34th Street between Park and Lexington Avenues, offers an unparalleled living experience with its spacious, renovated residences and breathtaking views of the Midtown skyline, East River, and beyond. 

In this piece, we’ll look at some of what makes Murray Hill such a special neighborhood — and what residents of Murray Park can look forward to having in their backyard.

A Taste of India in Murray Hill

Gourmands flock to the two-block stretch of Lexington Avenue between 27th and 28th Streets, where an array of Indian restaurants attracts food enthusiasts. This small but mighty enclave, which first emerged in the 1970s with the opening of pioneers like Curry in a Hurry, packs a punch with nearly 20 establishments dishing out the subcontinent’s most tantalizing flavors. From the sizzling tandoori ovens at Bhatti Indian Grill to the fragrant biryanis at Chote Nawab, the sheer variety of regional specialties on offer is staggering. Craving the rich, ghee-laden curries of Punjab? Head to Dhaba for a decadent feast. In the mood for the fiery, coconut-infused stews of Kerala? Haldi has you covered. And, for those looking to stock their pantry with hard-to-find spices and exotic ingredients, a visit to Kalustyan’s is a must. 

A Sense of History

For history buffs, Murray Hill offers a wealth of architectural treasures that speak to the neighborhood’s rich and varied past. The Murray Hill Historic District, which encompasses several blocks of stunning 19th century townhouses and mansions, is a particular highlight. Exploring its streets, you’ll feel as though you’ve stepped back in time to the Gilded Age, when Murray Hill was home to some of the city’s wealthiest and most prominent families. Many of these grand residences have been meticulously preserved and restored, offering a glimpse into the opulent lifestyles of their former occupants. Among the most notable is the Morgan Library & Museum, housed in the former private library of financier J.P. Morgan. But the neighborhood’s architectural offerings aren’t limited to its stately homes. The iconic Chrysler Building, with its gleaming Art Deco spire and ornate metalwork, is a true icon of the New York skyline.

A Home in Murray Hill

Despite its adjacency to Midtown Manhattan, Murray Hill maintains a distinct neighborhood vibe that sets it apart from the hustle and bustle of the surrounding city. The area’s tree-lined streets and historic architecture lend it a charm and character that feels miles away from the skyscrapers and crowds of nearby Grand Central Terminal. With a thriving restaurant and bar scene, ample green space in the form of St. Vartan Park, it’s no wonder that more and more people are choosing to call Murray Hill home.

Murray Hill’s perfect blend of history, culture, and convenience makes it an unbeatable Manhattan neighborhood. At its heart lies Murray Park, a premier no-fee apartment building that offers an unrivaled residential experience steeped in Murray Hill’s singular charm.

Greenwich Village, with its cobblestone streets and stoop-fronted row houses, has long been a font of inspiration for the free-spirited and the forward-thinkers, where the past intertwines seamlessly with the present. At its core stands Algin Management’s Hilary Gardens—a collection with the intimate ambiance of a boutique residence. 

Ascending to the 35th floor, a rooftop deck treats residents to a temperature-controlled outdoor pool; it’s a veritable sanctuary above. But Hilary Gardens isn’t just a residence—it’s a point of entry into the storied world of Greenwich Village.

Famed urbanist and activist Jane Jacobs found her muse in the eclectic urban patchwork of Greenwich Village. In its charming jumble of crooked streets and diverse dwellers, she discerned the fundamental elements that sustain vibrant communities. Jacobs celebrated the spontaneous sidewalk ballet that connected neighbors and local businesses. In the Village’s pulsing local economy and ever-evolving cultural fringe, she recognized neighborhoods as living organisms—sensitive ecosystems that standard planning models failed to grasp.

Washington Square Park is the thriving epicenter of that Greenwich Village community. As the day winds down, the park comes alive with impromptu dance sessions and live music, the fountain framed by street performers and vendors selling crafts. NYU students strum guitars beneath the arch while locals socialize on shaded benches, soaking in the enduring bohemian spirit embedded in the Village streets around them.

Among many historic row houses edging Washington Square park sits the stoic brick façade of the 1799 Isaacs-Hendricks House (77 Bedford St), a stunning testament to Greek Revival resilience, and the oldest house in Greenwich Village. 

Venture to the Stonewall Inn (53 Christopher St), its walls still echoing the cries of LGBTQ+ liberation that catalyzed an unstoppable movement. Linger at the Village Vanguard (178 7th Ave) next, letting the sweet serenade of jazz wash over you—the same melodies that have shaped the Village sound for generations.

Artistic visionaries sparked Greenwich Village’s enduring creative legacy, and fresh talents propel it into the future at a cluster of galleries, immediately south of the neighborhood’s Houston Street frontier. LUMAS (474 W Broadway) spotlights over 3,000 limited-edition photographic works by established and rising talents, offering custom designs and personalized service, while Perseus Gallery (456 W Broadway) champions ambitious emerging artists, providing tailored education and acclaimed platforms to develop professional careers. Finally, the boutique Georges Berges Gallery (462 W Broadway) cultivates a salon-style space to exhibit contemporary works and spark community around the next wave of innovation.

And at Hilary Gardens’ no-fee boutique apartments residents are privileged to inhabit this dynamic nexus of historical heritage and creative society, with layers of advocacy, rebellion, and artistic flowering cultivated over the years. 

Explore the culinary delights surrounding Laurence Towers, premier No-Fee Apartments managed by Algin Management, located on East 33rd Street. 

Sought-after for its eclectic array of eateries, historic charm, and lively atmosphere, East 33rd Street serves as a culinary hub in Murray Hill, presenting a rich selection of gastronomic experiences that cater to every palate, from fine dining to casual bites. 

Laurence Towers residents have a world of culinary delights at their doorstep, with three standout spots ready to whisk them away on a flavorful journey that’ll make them question whether they’re dining out or traveling the globe. 

Our journey begins at One Two Thai (153 East 33rd Street), a restaurant that offers an authentic exploration of Thai cuisine. Welcoming, compact, and cozy, it stands as a well-kept secret among neighborhood food aficionados. 

A stand-out dish is Pad See Ew, weaving together a complex tapestry of flavors and textures. This traditional entree features satisfyingly thick, ribbon-like noodles, Chinese broccoli, and a finish of scrambled egg elegantly tossed in a deep and rich soy sauce base. Equally compelling is the fragrant Basil Fried Rice, a vibrant choice where the bright, pungent aroma of fresh basil leaves—peppery and slightly minty with a touch of sweetness—elevates the simple stir-fry to heights of aromatic delight. 

Also in the limelight, Al Horno Lean Mexican Kitchen (156 East 33rd Street) is redefining Mexican cuisine with fresh flair, offering food, smoothies, and juices that are as vibrant and lively as the streets of New York City (including East 33rd Street) and as lean (and mean) as Derek Jeter. With a menu that walks the line between the traditional and nuevo healthy, Al Horno Lean Mexican Kitchen proves that eating wholesome doesn’t mean sacrificing taste. 

On the one hand, there’s the uber-healthy Kale Burrito featuring, you guessed it, kale, lightly sauteed to dial down the bitterness and dial-up flavor, with the roasted corn pico, beans, and other delicious ingredients all tightly rolled up in a whole wheat tortilla. Then there’s the Wild Buffalo Burrito with, nope, not bison meat, but buffalo sauce, chicken, and additional fillings to create a bold taste! Those juice combinations from the Juice Bar, tho, maybe start with Libido Loco and finish with the Just Chillin. 

The last highlight falls on Cask NYC (167 East 33rd Street), a cozy spot with a rustic vibe where bartenders aren’t just mixing drinks—they’re whipping up cocktails with flair and chatting up guests about all things Bourbon and Rye Whiskey. And it’s not just about the drinks; the menu adds fun spins to old favorites that’ll have your taste buds dancing with delight. 

The Spanish Mussels—a highlight among the small plates—are delicately simmered in a sumptuous shellfish broth, infused with the smoky undertones of Spanish chorizo and brightened by a dollop of spring onion puree. Accompanied by grilled sourdough bread, they present the perfect means to savor every drop of this flavorful concoction. For carnivores, the Hanger Steak, topped with chimichurri sauce and served up with cipollini onions and fingerling potatoes, promises to satisfy even the most ferocious of appetites. It’s all that and a bag of doughnuts (which are, indeed, on the menu). 

Those residing at Laurence Towers, No-Fee Apartments in Manhattan, have the enviable luxury of stepping right out their door and into the pulse of East 33rd Street. It’s not just an address—it’s an invitation to dive fork first into a diverse and dynamic dining experience.

There are few luxury amenities in New York more welcome than an on-site pool. At ARO and Sessanta—two spectacular residences that offer an elevated living experience par excellence—comfort and luxury combine with a spirit of aquatic adventure that can be enjoyed year round.

ARO, an elegant, undulating tower in the heart of Midtown West, sets the standard for urban sophistication. Offering a range of studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, ARO invites you to embrace the ever-changing cityscape through its expansive floor-to-ceiling windows. Amenity spaces abound, including an all-season indoor pool that transcends the ordinary. With panoramic views spanning the Hudson River and the city’s sparkling skyline, residents can escape to their aquatic retreat for both fitness and relaxation. 

The ARO Club features an indoor pool as part of its 40,000 square feet of luxury amenities, providing an exclusive space for relaxation and socialization​​. It’s not just a pool; it’s an experience.

ARO has designed it as a sanctuary from the ordinary, complete with comfortable lounge chairs and evoking the ambiance of a high-end resort. For those seeking more than a swim, the adjacent sauna, steam room, and spa provide a trifecta of relaxation.

Meanwhile, where the Upper West Side meets Lincoln Center and Hell’s Kitchen, Sessanta stands as a testament to sophistication. Its studio and one- and two-bedroom apartments feature hardwood floors, gourmet kitchens, and marble bathrooms—a harmonious blend of elegance. Sessanta’s 40-foot temperature-controlled indoor lap pool, overlooking a beautifully landscaped courtyard, offers residents a serene and inviting space for relaxation and exercise​​.

Residents of Sessanta enjoy the convenience of a wellness and recreation hub. Alongside the pool, a hot tub beckons. Adjoining the pool is a beautifully landscaped courtyard, offering a serene outdoor space for residents. The courtyard serves as a green spot amidst the urban landscape, perfect for a breath of fresh air or a quiet moment of reflection.
Whether you’re looking to stay active during the winter months or simply want to unwind after a long day, the indoor pools at ARO and Sessanta offer a luxurious escape. These amenities, along with scores of others, make Algin Management’s properties the ideal destinations for residents seeking comfort, convenience, and a dash of decadence in the heart of New York City.

As the moon ascends over Manhattan, Algin Management is well-versed in guiding residents to late-night dining options across the borough. Whether exploring the Upper East Side, Murray Hill, or Greenwich Village, the city’s neighborhoods showcase a variety of reliably excellent restaurants and bars that keep the culinary scene vibrant well into the late hours. 

We begin Uptown. Late-night revelers on the Upper East Side can discover premier after-hours dining that rivals any Downtown neighborhood. At cozy, cavernous Uva (1486 2nd Ave)  guests can partake in rustic Italian fare, wines, and cocktails in a backyard patio setting until 1AM. Our personal take? You can’t go wrong with their classic chicken parmesan, but pasta options abound (and never disappoint).

As high society patrons finish post-theater cocktails under the murals of Bemelmans Bar (35 E 76th St), beer enthusiasts flock to The Jeffrey Craft Beer & Bites (311 E 60th St) for a rotating tap list, tacos, sliders and cheese boards artfully paired with craft brews and ciders until 1AM on weekends. 

And with doors open until 3AM every day, J.G. Melon is a bona fide NYC classic. Since 1972, this haunt has been famous for its stalwart burgers, cottage fries, and Bloody Marys. The decor is fun too, filled with melon-themed art and sculptures, which adds to its quirky charm.

In Murray Hill, night owls can cozy up with cocktails and seasonal fare at Cask (167 E 33rd St) until 2AM during the week. For an elevated twist, try their truffle mac and cheese. And on Park Avenue, the casual crowd at Park Avenue Tavern (99 Park Ave) can choose from over 100 beers to pair with pub grub served late. 

As the night unfolds in the Village, the pulse of nightlife persists. From basement jazz clubs to candlelit cafes, the tree-lined streets provide the perfect backdrop for Hilary Gardens residents’ post-sunset epicurean escapades.

A short walk from the Hilary Gardens lobby at 300 Mercer Street sits legendary hot dog haunt Papaya Dog (333 Avenue of the Americas)—holding strong since the 1960s. The aptly named joint fills bellies 24/7 with discount dogs and greasy late-night comforts like cheese fries and mozzarella sticks. For an upscale experience, Minetta Tavern (113 Macdougal St) serves their renowned Black Label Burger until midnight.

Regardless of the hour or neighborhood, when hunger strikes, Algin residents have access to an eclectic array of dining options to satisfy any midnight craving. Book a private tour today to explore the vibrant surroundings near Algin Management properties.

As the late autumn weather brings a refreshing chill to the air, there’s no better time to lose yourself in the pages of a book. Here, we cast a spotlight on four local bookstores located just moments away from Algin Management’s no-fee apartments throughout NYC.

Shakespeare & Co | 939 Lexington Ave (UES) + 2020 Broadway (UWS)

Not to be confused with Paris’s famous Shakespeare and Company, but still an icon. The aroma of fresh coffee, books and wood welcomes you inside where helpful staff tend to their literary offerings.

New York City’s parks are not only respites from the bustle of the city but entire worlds unto themselves—oases where the cultural and social excitement of the city meets the natural world. A fundamental aspect of the lifestyle envisioned in Algin’s no-fee apartments in Manhattan is the transformative influence of having a park nearby. In many of these buildings, the changing of seasons, especially the enchanting fall, can alter the very fabric of your daily experiences. It provides you with precious moments to connect with nature, savor the unique activities, and revel in the distinctive allure that these green spaces imbue upon the heart of New York City. 

Residents of Algin’s Upper East Side, Upper West Side, and Midtown West properties will have easy access to Central Park, arguably one of the most famous parks in the world, where the possibilities for playing, biking, boating, picnicking, and relaxing are endless. Most importantly, residents are just minutes away from experiencing the mesmerizing fall foliage right in the heart of the city. With the park so close, you can build your biking or running routine along the park loop, and you can easily dip into the park for a quick weekday picnic or a more extravagant weekend feast on one of its many lush lawns. Attractions like Loeb Boathouse, the Delacorte Theater, the Central Park Zoo, and the Shakespeare Garden make the park feel like an extension of all the culture and dining the city has to offer—but in a place where you can experience it all under a canopy of trees. 

Residents of Algin’s Midtown West properties will find Bryant Park just a short walk away. Nestled behind the main research branch of the New York Public Library, Bryant Park has the architecture of that building as an accent to its aesthetic, which includes long tree-lined avenues surrounding an open space where you can watch movies in the summer, experience the fall foliage and ice skate in winter. Dining kiosks mean you can grab a delicious lunch without having to carry it over to the park, and an abundance of seating gives the park a Parisian feel. 

If you live at Hilary Gardens in Greenwich Village, Washington Square Park is just a short walk away. With its monumental arch and deep roots in New York history, this is one of the places in the city where the seamless connection between the park and the neighborhood works in an endless loop. Enjoy performers and musicians of all kinds while sitting near the famous fountain, visit the playground or the dog run, play chess with the locals at the chess tables, or just grab a falafel from Mamoun’s and bring it to a bench surrounded by the vibrant colors of autumn leaves, and you have yourself an afternoon worthy of a Frank O’Hara poem. 

It’s all part of how Algin Management brings you the best of the city, both indoors and out. Contact our team today.

People flock to New York City not only to witness its world-class sporting events, arts, and culture but also to become a part of those communities.
