With New York City bathed in glorious spring sunshine, it’s time to seek out the crème de la crème of restaurants offering al fresco dining experiences. The Algin Management team drew from its collective culinary expertise to create this list of Midtown West eating establishments, where you can feast outdoors in style.

Refinery Rooftop | 63 West 38th Street

When the weather turns balmy, savvy New Yorkers head for the city’s rooftop bars, and Refinery Rooftop is a classic of the genre. Here, industrial-chic (think exposed brick and steel girders) meets stunning Manhattan cityscapes, including a view of the Empire State Building worth coming back for again and again. And we haven’t even started on the bar menu. We recommend the zingy 13th Floor Margarita, mixed with mango tequila and fresh habaneros, and the seared ahi tuna salad. No wonder USA Today named this America’s “Best Hotel Rooftop Bar” for three consecutive years.

La Grande Boucherie | 145 West 53rd Street

An entire block of Midtown West is occupied by La Grande Boucherie’s splendid Parisian plaza. Seated beneath its très jolie grand glass roof — dripping with chandeliers — you’ll believe you’ve been transported to the City of Lights, as snappily dressed waitstaff shuttle back and forth with dishes of juicy filet au poivre, and top up flutes with Piper-Heidsieck Champagne. Continental atmosphere and high-caliber cuisine aside, this art nouveau-inspired restaurant offers the double delight of spring sunshine, while keeping you covered in case of sudden spring showers.

Sushi Lab | 132 West 47th Street

As its name suggests, Sushi Lab’s aim is to take the bite-sized Japanese dish to the next level. Book a table beneath the rooftop bar’s enchanting floral canopy and get your chopsticks into tasty morsels like charred edamame with black truffle salt and lemon zest; and the “Gold Digger,” a stack of Wagyu beef, scallop, and caviar that is absolutely out of this world. Pair dishes with artisan sake and Japanese whiskey, and find yourself in sushi shangri-la.

Giardino 54 | 400 1/2 West 54th Street

Colorful parasols provide respite from the sun’s rays in Giardino 54’s Italianate garden dining area. Gather around the table with friends and family en masse, just like the Italians do, and while the evening away over mouthwatering plates of gnocchi with gorgonzola and walnut sauce, washed down with carafes of Sangiovese red and Trebbiano white. Giardino is open till 11 p.m. most days, so you can take your time catching up on the gossip over plates of exquisite food.

There’s no lovelier time to be in NYC than in the spring. And there’s no better place to experience the excitement that surrounds this warm-weather season than in Greenwich Village at the no-fee New York City apartments of Hilary Gardens. 

Perfectly situated in the heart of Downtown, the residences at Hilary Gardens offer modern and luxe living all year long, but when the snow melts and the trees begin to bloom, this 35-story building gives you a chance to experience spring in all its glory: Watch the city come to life as you sit at home looking at the jaw-dropping views from high above. Get a breath of fresh air as you lounge on the balcony. And take in all the culinary and cultural wonders Greenwich Village affords just minutes away from these singular no-fee apartments. 

There’s a lot to do, so let’s head out and see what this charming neighborhood has to offer for the perfect spring day in Greenwich Village.

Start your sunny day with a morning stroll around the area and a trip to nearby historic Washington Square Park. Give yourself a little fuel for a walk with a stop by the Whistle & Fizz for one of their signature sparkling teas or an expertly poured cup of Stumptown coffee. 

A seat in Washington Square Park should be easy to find at this time of day. Indulge as you daydream and people watch while the morning progresses, and the park fills with students, picnickers, and performers who showcase talents ranging from mime to breakdancing to classical piano playing. Yes, occasionally, a pianist with a full-sized piano in tow delights park goers with their skills on the keys.

Even your pooch can enjoy the pup-friendly perks of Greenwich Village, after all, the area’s charming streets are an ideal place for your pup to show off their new style from the groomer or to meet the other neighborhood dogs. But if they really need to blow off steam, Washington Square Park’s fenced-in dog run allows dogs to work out those four legs until it’s nap time. 

When morning breezes into the afternoon, you’re sure to have quite an appetite. Luckily, the options in this part of town are limitless, but there’s one dish you can’t miss, New York pizza, and the choices for a classic New York slice are plentiful in Greenwich Village. 

If you’re hungry for an old-school throwback, get a cozy table at John’s Pizzeria on Bleecker Street for an authentic coal-fired pie. Those who want something on-the-go and quick should hit up the ever-popular Joe’s for what is considered by many to be one of the best slices in the city. This perfectly balanced pizza combines fresh mozzarella, just-tangy-enough sauce, and a crisp yet foldable crust and has made Joe’s a Village institution for decades. Looking for something a little different from your traditional pizza? Artichoke Pizza is your spot for creative creations like the square cut and dense vodka slice or their creamy and over-the-top artichoke option.

After you fill up, find a spot to relax and digest with a drink. The bar and cafe scene in the Village is unsurpassed, thanks to spots like Caffe Reggio and Bar Pisellino, where it’s always nice to read a book or catch up with friends. If you happen to get peckish around dinnertime, no worries: Greenwich Village is a foodie haven that beckons you with some of the top restaurants in the world, including Carbone, Minetta Tavern, and Jane. 

As the nighttime scene picks up, you have the choice of almost any and every bar. But to make your perfect spring day even more special, get ready to laugh at the Comedy Cellar, where you might just see one of the comedy greats walk in and do a set. 

When you’re ready to head home for a serene spring night indoors, you’ll be happy to know that the no-fee apartments of Hilary Gardens are only a few blocks away. For information about the residences at Hilary Gardens or any of the other properties in our portfolio, contact our leasing team.

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.

Contact Us today to learn more about our current availability and the vast amount of amenities our buildings have to offer.

Retail helps define a neighborhood, and a neighborhood creates the community that comes in and out of a shop’s doors. New Yorkers sometimes say that it’s magically lucky when a business explodes into an instant neighborhood-defining favorite. In fact, there is an intricate network of factors, including architecture, foot traffic, and nearby dining and cultural attractions, that can make for entrepreneurial magic. The opportunities at Algin Management check all the boxes on the list of what makes retail tick, not least of which is a building’s prime location in one of the world’s most exciting neighborhoods in the world’s most exciting city. Here is a look at some of the retail and office spaces with a special Algin alchemy that can send business possibilities soaring.

The Upper East Side often feels like the center of the world, and Algin’s 330 East 85 Street, a streamlined white brick building with studio, 1-, and 2-bedroom no-fee Manhattan apartments, is right in the heart of it, sitting on the path between Museum Mile and the Second Avenue Subway line. People from all over the city will pass it on their way to take in a blockbuster painting show at the Metropolitan Museum of Art or on their way back from receiving top healthcare at one of the many top-rated healthcare facilities in the area. With local favorites like Schaller’s Stube Sausage Bar and Bondurants just around the corner and Cafe D’Alsace just up the avenue, it’s also a magnet for local traffic, seamlessly woven into the life of the neighborhood. Establishing a business in an elegant Upper East Side residential building means that you are instantly integrated into the community, and you will reach both a local and an international clientele. First-floor and lower-level retail and office spaces with flexible layouts mean you can be a part of the design so that it speaks to your brand identity and optimizes operations. Other Algin retail locations on the Upper East Side include 96th Street Brownstones, The Parkview, and The Pearl.

The 65 stories of no-fee NYC apartments at ARO are themselves a fantastic resource, housing a potential clientele that doesn’t have to leave the building to take advantage of what its prime Midtown West retail space has to offer. Meanwhile, Hilary Gardens boasts an address in the heart of Greenwich Village, combining the vibrant Downtown culture scene with proximity to the entire population at New York University, Laurence Towers, and 530 Second Ave share a neighborhood with internationally renowned NYC destinations like Kalustyans and Dover Street Market.

The spaces in these select Algin properties provide the chance to change the map of retail in iconic Manhattan neighborhoods, where newcomers are set to become the new shopping and dining destinations sought out by locals and visitors alike. If you’re interested in bringing your retail business to an Algin building, contact our team to learn about the current spaces that are available. 

New York City’s five boroughs may occasionally engage in some interborough rivalries—not to mention the Subway Series and its loyal partisans—with each staking a claim to preeminence. And within each borough, there are, of course, distinctive neighborhoods, each with its own personality and history. However, when it comes time to find a place to call one’s home in the city, few neighborhoods can offer up the special blend of culture, proximity to parks and greenery, and restaurants like the Upper West Side. Living in one of Algin Management’s no-fee apartments in NYC’s Upper West Side means you’re just walking distance from a host of some of New York’s finest and most iconic destinations. 

Firstly, when it comes to fine dining, the Upper West Side is home to an embarrassment of

riches. Maison Pickle, a classic eatery with a stylish decor, features true bistro comfort food and American classics—with a selection of signature dishes like French dip sandwiches, moules and steak frites, salads, seafood, desserts, and a delightful menu of cocktails, spirits, wine, and beer. Sarabeth’s may be known for its premium jams, but New Yorkers have long appreciated this beloved institute for its homestyle cooking and one of the best brunches in the city. Meanwhile, Lincoln Ristorante serves authentic Italian cuisine with ingredients sourced from local sources, including the Upper West Side’s own Tucker Square Greenmarket.

The Upper West Side is also home to some of New York’s most storied cultural institutions. The Museum of Modern Art, with its impressive and wide-sweeping collections of sculptures, paintings, and drawings, among other works, is widely regarded as one of the most important museums of modern art in the world. While known by a younger generation of filmgoers from the blockbuster A Night at the Museum with actor Ben Stiller, the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) has been steadily attracting visitors for over a century. Today, the museum houses more than 34 million specimens of mammals, rocks, meteorites, and plants. In addition to its permanent collection, the AMNH has an ongoing rotation of events—like its current special exhibitions on sharks, our solar system, and “dazzling diamonds”—sure to pique interest among visitors of all ages.

Of course, the Upper West Side is ideally located between Riverside Park and Central Park—the green, beating heart of the city and a short walk away from Algin Management’s UWS rentals.

Winter in New York is a magical time, and there is no place in the city where this is more true than on the Upper East Side. With the wide expanses of Central Park to catch the beauty of every snowfall, and the world’s most respected museums always there to provide warmth for the body and inspiration for the mind, Algin Management’s no-fee Manhattan apartments connect you to the best the city has to offer, inside and out. 

At 400 East 66th Street, The Pearl rises over the neighborhood with its facade of limestone and glass, offering spacious apartments with sweeping views of the East River. Algin’s 96th Street Brownstones, with their old New York charm updated for 21st century living, put you so close to Central Park and Museum Mile that the views along the reservoir in the park and the van Goghs at The Metropolitan Museum of Art will feel like an extension of your home. 

During the holidays, you’ll want to visit the Met’s Christmas Tree and Neapolitan Baroque Crèche, which features a 20-foot blue spruce standing in front of the museum’s 18th century Spanish choir screen. Combining artifacts with a living tree and classic Christmas themes, the display features 18th century porcelain angels and a nativity scene, all softly lit in the Medieval Sculpture Hall. For another blockbuster holiday experience, check out the show “Inspiring Walt Disney: The Animation of French Decorative Arts.” In this revelatory show, the Met has paired 150 drawn works from the Walt Disney Studio with 60 objects from the French Rococo period. It’s a stunning juxtaposition that sheds light on the aesthetic foundations for the look of the early classic Disney films, which have helped to shape the American imagination. 

Residents of Algin’s no-fee NYC apartments won’t have to venture very far to find the Guggenheim Museum — the building itself is an architectural masterpiece by Frank Lloyd Wright. Living so close to this landmark means you can enjoy the beauty of the circular building on your way to the park or on an after-dinner excursion down Fifth Avenue at night. But when the temperatures drop, the winter exhibitions this season will encourage you to gather friends and family and make a day of it. 

Central Park is the kind of iconic New York spot that you can treat as a world-class attraction or your own private backyard, depending on your plans and your mood. When friends or relatives come to town, you can take them to see celebrated park sites like the Alice in Wonderland statue or to view the city skyline around the reservoir. But it is also the perfect place for romantic or solitary wanderings when you feel like tuning out the city and entering a winter landscape as

peaceful as the countryside, with the world’s best culture, shopping, and dining twinkling behind it. Make the most out of this season! Find your dream Upper East Side apartment by contacting us today.

The dazzling lights of Broadway, a buzzing food scene, and the proximity to some of the world’s best shopping—Midtown West is the ultimate locale to experience the luxe life NYC affords. And right in the heart of it are the no-fee NYC apartments of ARO, where elevated living is taken to a whole new level. 

Here, you’ll immerse yourself in a world of indulgence, from the sleek design of each apartment and the jaw-dropping views to the over 40,000 square feet of amenities. Do laps in the indoor pool, relax in the private members lounge, or enjoy nature in the middle of NYC in the garden terrace. 

While it might be tempting to stay in the comfort of ARO’s no-fee apartments in Manhattan, the opulence and focus on the finer things in life extend to the surrounding Midtown West neighborhood. Let’s explore. 

Culture

When you live in Midtown West, you’re never more than just a short walk away from music, art, and other live performances—no matter what your taste. Take in an opera or ballet at Lincoln Center. Listen to your favorite musicians and entertainers perform live in places as diverse as Radio City Music Hall, one of the city’s grandest venues, and the intimate cabaret-style setting of 54 Below. 

For avid art enthusiasts, nearby MoMA serves as a temple to modern art. Walking the galleries of this vaunted institution, you’ll take in works by Warhol, Lichtenstein, Pollock, and Van Gogh. Thanks to its rotating installations, including exhibits by present-day artists, you might just discover something new that strikes an artistic chord. 

And, of course, there’s always Broadway. Lucky residents of the ARO are just a five-minute stroll from this undisputed capital of live entertainment. 

Cuisine

New York City is known for its haute cuisine and Michelin-starred chefs who bring flavors and techniques from around the world to the refined restaurants that are seemingly around every corner in Midtown West. Begin your odyssey by treating yourself to an elegant yet laid-back evening with a mouthwatering croque monsieur at Alain Ducasse’s Benoit. 

The upscale Mexican eatery Toloache brings all the flavors of Mexico to Midtown West in a fun, sophisticated setting where the carne asada tacos might make this a regular go-to for an evening out. Meanwhile, for an over-the-top night of fine dining, world-class service, and some of the most exquisite food in the city, get a table at Thomas Keller’s vaunted Per Se. Since 2004, this three-Michelin-star restaurant has consistently been lauded by critics and diners alike, thanks to their commitment to fresh, seasonal ingredients, unparalleled presentation, and expertly executed takes on New American cuisine. 

Couture

Fashionistas and anyone who wants to look good in the clothes they wear are perfectly placed in Midtown West due to its proximity to high-end department stores, boutiques, and Fifth Avenue. Just six blocks north of ARO, the Shops at Columbus are a must-visit one-stop destination for the sartorially inclined. More than just a shopping center, the Shops at Columbus offer the best-of-the-best in ready-to-wear, everyday fashion, like Ted Baker and Cole Haan.  

Fifteen minutes away by foot, Fifth Avenue awaits with all its fashion at your fingertips. Start out on 59th Street at the iconic Bergdorf Goodman department store, where the chicest New Yorkers have been shopping for well over a century. As you walk south along Fifth, you’re treated to an array of designer shops and fashion houses: bags from Louis Vuitton, a bauble or two from Harry Winston, or something cutting-edge from Versace. As you’re weighed down with shopping bags, filled to the brim with fine food, or have a mild case of museum fatigue, you’ll be thankful that it is a quick jaunt to get home to ARO. 

The living is easy, dynamic, and fine in Midtown West. Contact us today to learn more about ARO’s current availability.

Curtains up! Broadway is back. After going dark for months, New York theaters are buzzing back to life as shows open and vaccinated audience members fill up seats. Are you ready? There’s no better place to experience the wonders of NYC’s theater scene than right in the heart of it at ARO’s no-fee rentals. 

While you could take in the stunning views of the glimmering Theater District and beyond from your window at ARO, it’s just as easy to head a few blocks downtown to see some of the world’s best musicals and plays, starring performers unparalleled in their talents. 

Hear Broadway stars belt out a tune. Watch actors you know from the silver screen making their mark on the well-trodden boards. Jump to your feet as you applaud the cast during the final curtain call. 

Broadway returns! And here are our picks for must-see shows that recently reopened. 

‘Hamilton’ 

A lesson in history, storytelling, and rap, Lin-Manuel Miranda’s masterpiece is perfect for theater lovers of all ages. Engaging, emotional, and sometimes laugh-out-loud funny, Hamilton traces the life of founding father Alexander Hamilton. This Tony-winning musical has been a hit since its premiere and is still one of Broadway’s most sought-after tickets. 

‘Wicked’ 

This take on the classic “The Wizard of Oz” has delighted audiences for almost two decades with its extravagant sets, over-the-top costumes, and catchy songs. Based on the Gregory Maguire novel, this spectacular production shows how the Wicked Witch of the West came to be so … wicked. 

‘Moulin Rouge!’ 

With lavish sets and pop songs that everyone knows, “Moulin Rouge!” is an immersive theatrical experience. Just like the Baz Luhrmann film, this show will transport you to turn-of-the-century Montmartre — with a modern twist. Sing along to renditions of your favorite tunes by Whitney Houston, Pink, The Police, and, of course, “Lady Marmalade.” 

‘Come From Away’ 

More than just a musical, “Come From Away” is a meditation on the kindness of the human spirit. Real-life events inspired the story: During the 9/11 attacks, planes were diverted to a small town in Canada, leaving thousands of passengers stranded there. While the setup might seem grim, the music, performances, and message of “Come From Away” are anything but.

‘Tina: The Tina Turner Musical’ 

Part jukebox musical, part biography, “Tina” tells the story of legendary rocker Tina Turner. Turner’s most famous hits, such as “What’s Love Got to Do With It” and “The Best,” are interwoven throughout this retelling of her life. It’s these songs that are the real standouts in this story about struggle and triumph. 

Celebrate the reopening of Broadway, and the return of a staple of New York living and entertainment, with an evening of powerful performances and musical fireworks at the theater — all happening just blocks from your new home at Algin Management’s Midtown West Manhattan apartments at ARO.

Autumn might just be the most delightful season in NYC. Think: strolls through the golden foliage of Central Park with a pumpkin-spice latte in hand, or taking in a seasonal show on the Museum Mile. Algin Management’s enviable collection of Upper East Side apartments couldn’t be better placed — right in the heart of the autumnal action. 

An Afternoon in Central Park 

The 96th Street Brownstones combine old-world charm (just look at the exterior’s decorative scrollwork) with freshly renovated apartments for the discerning no-fee renter. The buildings also practically neighbor with Central Park. This time of the year is perfect for filling a flask with cider and losing yourself in the crimsons and golds of the Ramble, or feeling crisp leaves beneath your feet in Shakespeare Garden. Spend a Saturday afternoon admiring the bald cypress and willows along the Harlem Meer, or revel in a spot of autumnal “forest bathing” in the Hallett Nature Sanctuary. Or admire the foliage as you stroll the Jacqueline Onassis Reservoir, all just a walking distance from home. 

Taking in a Fall Exhibition 

Fall in Manhattan is an enchanting show in itself — but autumn’s also the season for exploring the Upper East Side’s grand museums and galleries. Delve into the universe of Surrealism at The Met’s just-opened exhibition, or transport yourself to Europe with “A New Look at Old Masters.” At the Guggenheim, let Vasily Kandinsky’s avant-garde explosions of color warm the creative cockles of your heart. Or, explore the modernist French gardens of André and Paul Vera at the Cooper Hewitt. All these institutions have inspiring gift shops; from prints to textiles, you can treat your Manhattan apartment to a touch of autumnal spice. 

A Warming Drink 

Few things warm the belly and soul like a steaming hot beverage in fall. Both the 96th Street Brownstones and The Parkview are a short distance from Bluestone Lane. Here, you can sip a chai latte or a silky hot chocolate while watching the Museum Mile crowds go by. As for residents of 330 East 85th Street, you’re a mere seven minutes from Variety Coffee Roasters, where you can pair hot coffee with a scrummy slice of pumpkin bread. 

No Place Like Home 

When you’re done with your autumnal excursions, continue the seasonal festivities at your Upper East Side rental. At the 96th Street Brownstones, a toasty fireplace and a soothing bath await. At 330 East 85th Street, you’ll find recently refitted kitchens, where you can cook up a warming stew. Start living your best autumnal life today. Find your dream Upper East Side no-fee rental.

The luxury apartments for rent through Algin Management give new meaning to the term “urban oasis.” With their top-of-the-line finishes and views of the park and the city, they make every day feel like a staycation. Beyond the front door, the parks and gardens easily accessible from these properties prove the little-acknowledged truth about finding nature in city living—not only do you not need to leave the city to find it, but Manhattan’s best parks offer something even the upstate landscapes can’t: deeply thoughtful landscaping created with as much care as the city’s great buildings.

There is a reason that the word masterpiece is often used to describe Central Park, and that is because, at every arch or turn in the path, there is a palpable and intentional beauty originating from the designs of Vaux and Olmsted. When you live at ARO, you are mere steps from this sprawling playground for the young and old, where trees mark the seasons and where the main loop and endless paths offer the opportunity to go for a run free from cars and the clamor of the streets any day of the week. This fall, take a stroll through the Ramble at the height of the leaf-changing season or work your way through a yoga routine in the Sheep Meadow.

Sessanta—also within walking distance of Central Park—has its own private courtyard garden, giving you a chance to spend time in nature whenever you like, with the bonus of seclusion and intimacy. It’s the perfect place to have a long, relaxed lunch with a friend alfresco or to immerse yourself in a book under the trees or read the paper with your morning coffee.

The Liane and The Townsway are both a short walk from the East River Greenway, a meticulously landscaped path from Battery Park to 120th street. A run, walk, or bike ride along its length will bring you water breezes, fresh air, skyline views of Queens, Brooklyn and Manhattan, and a unique perspective from which to admire the bridges that span the water and the architectural sites of the city framed by parks, plantings, autumn trees and grasses. 

That sense of a taste of the tamed wild is a particular New York pleasure. Add to this the fact that a human-made park is an opportunity to experience nature harnessed by the imagination: nature as an inhabitable work of art becomes a part of your daily life at Algin properties! Learn about renting one of our no-fee luxury apartments today. 

This golden period of perfectly cool and comfortable sweater weather is ideal for exploring some of NYC’s outdoor attractions. Fortunately for residents of Algin Management’s no-fee apartments, Manhattan is brimming with options for relishing the season’s best weather. 

With the recent opening of Little Island at Pier 55, New Yorkers can explore the latest must-visit destination, which strikes a unique silhouette from its location on the Hudson River. This sprawling 2.4-acre green space represents a new landmark in urban design. The park rests on 132 pot-shaped supports — known as tulips — that are designed to look as though they are floating above the water. In addition to its distinctive structure and appearance, Little Island offers live music, dance, and spoken-word performances. Not surprisingly, it is the perfect spot for a walk with its colorful variety of trees and flowers and its gently rolling grassy expanses. Visitors will also find food and beverage trucks that make for a complete afternoon or evening outing. 

For another afternoon adventure, Algin residents can make their way to Pier 36 on the East River, which boasts magnificent waterfront views of the Manhattan and Williamsburg Bridges. And speaking of magnificent views, be sure to see the Immersive Van Gogh exhibit. This interactive art show allows visitors to literally step into the works and world of Vincent van Gogh with 360 degree digital projections and a virtual reality experience, as well as an immersive backdrop of lights and sounds that recreate the universe and the starry night behind van Gogh’s genius. 

Finally, the best way to enjoy the fresh evening air is with a drink at one of Manhattan’s finest rooftop bars. Some favorites are The Crown, on the 21st floor of the Hotel 50 Bowery in Chinatown, or the CloudM on the 21st floor of the CitizenM Bowery Hotel on the Lower East Side. For patrons coming from Little Island, Gallow Green at the McKittrick Hotel on West 27th Street boasts a little garden of vines and flowers on its rooftop, as well as a menu of appropriately floral-inspired cocktails like the Sleep No More with elderflower- and pea flower-infused vodka. And, of course, each of these rooftop bars offers up some of the city’s most spectacular views — a magical backdrop for a crisp, late-autumn night.

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. 

Looking to enjoy the remaining weeks of Summer outdoors at the rooftop pool? Or take a dip in one of the best NYC indoor pools as the weather begins to cool? Luckily, Algin Management offers a selection of luxury no-fee apartments in properties across Hell’s Kitchen, Midtown West, and Greenwich Village, each with their own private swimming facilities. Let’s dive in. 

Sessanta’s 40-Foot Lap Pool

The jewel in the crown of these stunning luxury apartments on 229 West 60th Street is Sessanta Club*. Here, residents are spoiled with sporting amenities, including a lighted outdoor tennis court, on which to practice your backhand any time of the day or evening, and a sizable state-of-the-art gym. Right now, though, it’s all about the beautiful 40-foot indoor lap pool; a dip in this will immediately refresh and revitalize. Ceiling-height windows overlooking an English-style garden bring the outdoors in… minus the blazing heat. 

Hilary Gardens’ Two-Level Sky Deck

Crowning Greenwich Village’s highly desirable apartments at Hilary Gardens is a two-level rooftop sky deck. At 35 stories high, the decks here command incredible views of the New York City skyline, including such icons as One World Trade Center. Get changed in the on-site locker rooms, then dive into the shimmering waters of the pool*. Alternate between bracing dips in the temperature-controlled pool and sunning yourself on one of the pool-side loungers. As the day wears on, change into light evening wear and reemerge with cocktail in hand to admire a glorious Manhattan sunset.

ARO’s Sky Club

Residents of the apartments for rent at ARO have no need for concern. After all, they have exclusive access to the Sky Club*—a rooftop haven featuring a pool, where you can bathe in the crisp waters while enjoying stunning vistas of NYC. Shower down, towel off, and recline on a lounger with a long, tall drink. (Something like a piña colada or mint julep would go down nicely.) ARO also boasts an indoor pool featuring floor-to-ceiling windows and stylish interior design. There’s a sauna, too, but perhaps save that for a month or two from now.

Want to cool off in style this summer with a private pool? Explore Algin Management’s dazzling portfolio of no-fee apartments.

There are many apartment buildings on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, but there’s only one Sessanta. Residents of these no-fee rentals in NYC live in homes flooded with natural light and have access to their building’s suite of high-end amenities*, all while living within walking distance of Manhattan’s hottest restaurants, cultural institutions, and parks. Keep reading for a breakdown of just what makes these rental homes so special.

The first thing that prospective renters will notice about the homes at Sessanta is the natural light. Warm walnut floors and white walls absorb the sunlight that pours in through oversized windows, giving the interiors a glow that invites residents to bask in the natural light whether they’re brewing their morning cup of coffee or relaxing in their bedroom at dusk. The large windows look out on classic Upper West Side views, including the sweep of the Hudson River and the span of West 60th Street between West End and Amsterdam Avenues. Inside, these studio to three-bedroom homes feature chef’s kitchens equipped with GE Profile appliances and Caesarstone countertops, large baths with spa-style fixtures, and washer/dryers in most residences. With that lighting advantage, top-of-the-line design, and the prewar-style high ceilings, these residences feel like home from the moment residents step inside for the first time.

But it’s the rest of the building that makes living at Sessanta a real treat. Residents have access to a suite of amenities that have been curated to meet everyone’s needs, from recreational to fitness to social. The 3,000-square-foot fitness center contains state-of-the-art machines, including popular Peloton exercise bikes and a host of other cardio and weight-training equipment. Residents who prefer to work up a sweat in the fresh air will be drawn to the building’s outdoor tennis court with US Open finishes, which is set amid a cozy English Garden that transports players and loungers far from the street-level world and occasional honking horns of the Upper West Side. Guests can reduce stress in one of the saunas. And the 40-foot indoor pool is perfect for getting in a few laps before or after work.

Diligent remote-working residents will love the building’s pair of coworking spaces, which include a formal business center, complete with computers and printers, as well as the more relaxed media lounge. The media lounge is also home to a movie-theater-style projector and a pool table for unwinding after a long day of conference calls and spreadsheets.

With all this and more, all that’s missing from Sessanta is you! Head over to the availability page to find your perfect home and then reach out to schedule a tour today.

Summer is here and it’s no understatement that this year more than any other, New Yorkers are ready to experience all the alfresco fun and sun they can handle. As the weather heats up, they’re heading out to soak up the warm weather. And they’re planning relaxing weekend trips where they can lounge by a pool. For lucky residents at several of Algin Management’s no-fee rentals, a summer respite by the pool doesn’t have to be just a weekend—it can be all summer long. 

While you could chill out in the well-appointed, air-conditioned splendor in any building of our portfolio, why not check out these two stellar properties that come replete with one of NYC’s most enviable amenities: a rooftop pool? Let’s take a look at these unique rooftop oases where you’re sure to want to lather up on the SPF and luxuriate for hours. 

ARO

ARO is more than your average NYC home. Its undulating, curving architectural masterpiece of an exterior is matched and surpassed by the 40,000 square feet of amenities ARO affords its residents. With a commitment to elevated living, the team behind ARO has created a resort-style lifestyle for all who live here, from the gorgeous design of the no-fee rental apartments to the ARO Sky Club* that’s located on the very top of the building. 

Take in panoramic, jaw-dropping views of the city from this vantage point as you sip on your San Pellegrino and luxuriate in the lounge areas or while taking a dip in the crystal-clear pool water. Find yourself a shady spot to read or gather with friends and family. It’s the ultimate way to begin or end your day. In cooler weather, there’s also an indoor pool for your exercise and enjoyment. 

Hilary Gardens 

With hip boutiques, foodie-favored restaurants, and a world-class cultural scene, the tree-lined streets of Greenwich Village are the epitome of Downtown cool, and the no-fee rental apartments of Hillary Gardens are literally in the heart of it. In fact, all of Downtown Manhattan is at your fingertips—or feet, as it were. SoHo, Nolita, the Lower East Side, and the East and West Villages are no more than a 15-minute stroll from here. 

And the sun-filled homes at Hilary Gardens, with many different layouts, are perfect for almost anyone who wants to live the luxe life via top-end amenities like a 24-hour doorman and parking garage valet—and, of course, a rooftop pool* with spectacular vistas of the city and water. Grab a towel and take the elevator to the pool and sun deck area whenever you need to get a little vitamin D or cool off after a day of outing-and-abouting in the Village. 

A quick dip or a long soak is never more than an elevator ride away with these properties. Contact us and dip your toe in to learn more about these and other no-fee rentals currently available.

*Additional fee required.

A boutique feel and an unparalleled location at the intersection of Gramercy Park, NoMad, and the Flatiron District are just a few of the defining features of The Townsway’s luxury no-fee rentals in NYC’s most desirable location. Each residence includes generous layouts and meticulous attention to each newly renovated detail. Residence 8D offers the best of The Townsway, with expansive studio living space, fit for working from home, entertaining, or simply enjoying the comforts of the everyday.

Residence 8D’s generous layout is marked by an oversized panel of windows that allow plenty of light to stream in and an inviting view of the city below. The open living space stretches over 21 feet to accommodate any configuration of sleeping, living, dining, and working from home. The newly renovated kitchen includes handsome custom cabinetry and top-of-the-line stainless-steel appliances, perfect for the home chef or even the casual foodie who can appreciate the design touches while preparing and enjoying meals or morning coffee. Adjacent to the kitchen is additional space ideal for dining or entertaining or a home office.

The revamped bathroom features all-new fixtures, as well as marble and European tile, which create a true spa-like feel fit for a daily self-care regimen or an occasional indulgent soak in the tub. Leading into the bathroom is an additional versatile space for a dressing area, as well as an oversized closet. Residence 8D abounds with storage space, with three large closets sized to house even the most extensive wardrobe or other storage needs.

Residence 8D offers the best of The Townsway’s allure and fresh design detail. This 15-story building is a true neighborhood landmark, with its distinctive roofline, terraces, and warm brick facade. The 24-hour doorman greets residents at the recently redesigned entryway and into the inviting lobby and common spaces. For those with cars in the city, a parking garage offers added convenience for a quick weekend getaway via the nearby FDR Drive. Residents also have the 6 and N/R/W subway lines and express bus lines nearby for an abundance of transportation options to get around town.

When you live in one of Algin Management’s no-fee rentals, you’re likely never far from a beautiful park. Here are four of the finest green spaces—just a hop, skip, and a jump away from various NYC apartments in the Algin portfolio.

Washington Square Park near Hilary Gardens

Across the road from Hilary Gardens is Washington Square Park—a leafy spot where there’s always something going on. Street entertainers perform for passers-by. Kids and parents cool off near the fountain. Studious chess players consider their next move in the shade of the elms. Pooch owners chat while pets let off steam on the dog runs. Join in with the fun or simply take a stroll along the park’s pathways, pausing to admire the grand Washington Square Arch.

Stuyvesant Square Park near The Liane and The Townsway

This refined park is a fleeting walk from both The Liane and The Townsway—offering respite from NYC’s hustle and bustle with its attractive fountains, English elm trees, and tulip beds in the springtime. It’s a fitting location to delve into a book on NYC’s history; after all, the park is named for Peter Gerard Stuyvesant, cofounder of the New-York Historical Society. Go seek out his statue here, as well as that of composer Antonin Dvorak, who once called this neighborhood home.

Asphalt Green Park near 330 East 85th Street

If you’re looking to rekindle your love of sports—or discover a new sport to fall in love with—Asphalt Green is for you. This wedge of green space boasts soccer and baseball fields, tennis courts, running tracks, swimming pools, and lots more. You can join a league with friends, focus on individual training, or get stuck into a wealth of other activities.  Residents of 330 East 85th Street are just a 10-minute walk from these facilities. Or a five-minute jog.

Central Park near Algin Apartments

Covering a staggering 843 acres, it’s little wonder that Central Park neighbors with a number of Algin Management properties. From ARO, you’re less than 15 minutes from the tranquility of Hallett Nature Sanctuary. The apartments at 1476 and 1486 Lexington Avenue are moments from the world-class museums just across from the park, including the Cooper Hewitt and the Jewish Museum. From The Parkview, take Sunday strolls through the serene Conservatory Garden. Go on reinvigorating jogs around the reservoir’s Shuman Running Track from the brownstones on East 96th Street. 461 Central Park West, meanwhile, overlooks Central Park’s Great Hill and its North Woods—bristling with wildlife and ripe for exploration.

A green stroll is never too far away from your Algin home. Contact us to learn more about all the no-fee Manhattan apartments that are currently available for rent.

New York City’s Laurence Towers offers one- to three-bedroom residences with spectacular Manhattan views. A handful of apartments are currently available for rental; here’s what to expect from them.

Hallways and Kitchens

Stepping into any Laurence Towers apartment, you’ll immediately appreciate the freshly laid wood flooring. High-quality, hard-wearing, and beautiful to behold, these floors continue throughout each residence, from hallway to living room to bedroom. As you enter, you’ll also discover the kitchen, fitted with stainless-steel appliances, including refrigerator/freezer, oven, microwave, and dishwasher. It’s everything you need to rustle up meals or prepare dinner parties. Each kitchen’s modernist-style cabinetry is effortlessly stylish, and ample in size.

Living Rooms

Continuing into the living room, you’re drawn to the generously-proportioned windows. Sunlight streams in, creating an inviting, light-filled space for enjoying meals, reading books—or even performing your daily yoga routine. The windows also offer enviable New York City views—across rooftop gardens and parks. Some look out over the East River, too. Laurence Towers’ living rooms easily accommodate sofas, coffee tables and dining furniture. Some also walk out onto a terrace or balcony—perfect for coffee (or cocktails) al fresco.

Bedrooms and Bathrooms

The bedrooms at Laurence Towers command more urban panoramas: think skyscrapers, treetops, those iconic water towers—what a way to wake up each morning. Additionally, each bedroom boasts the kind of walk-in closet space that’s sorely sought-after in this part of NYC. Adjacent is the bathroom, gleaming white with brick-shaped glazed tiles. You can shower in the mornings—perhaps after using Laurence Towers’ on-site fitness center—and indulge in evening soaks in the tub. Fixtures and fittings, from vanity to towel rail, are all freshly appointed.

Amenities and Neighborhood

All Laurence Towers residents have access to impressive amenities, including a 24-hour doorman, attended parking garage and a live-in manager there to address any queries. Step outside, and you’re in the highly desirable part of town where Murray Hill meets Kips Bay. Within easy walking distance is a wealth of restaurants, cocktail bars, green space like Madison Square and Bryant Parks—plus Manhattan icons including the Empire State Building and Grand Central Station.

Explore floor plans, photos and virtual tours of Laurence Towers residences now available for rental.

Sessanta is home to a suite of health and wellness amenities, including a 40-foot, temperature-controlled indoor lap pool, a fully equipped fitness center with 30,000 square feet worth of cardio machines and weights, and a dedicated yoga and Pilates studio. Within these spaces, residents have their choice of web-enabled spin classes via Peloton bikes, peaceful meditation in the quiet yoga studio, and intense lap swimming, all without leaving the comfort of their building.

However, spring is about more than keeping your New Year’s resolution to hit the gym. At Sessanta, residents have access to a range of outdoor spaces designed to help make the most of balmy weather. In addition to the English garden, where the pop-pop of nearby tennis play creates a sophisticated ambiance, residents have access to the courtyard garden, a spacious, peaceful oasis, where perennial plantings create an atmosphere that’s perfect for some quiet reading time or a picnic with friends and family.

In addition to unmatched amenities, the building’s concierge and staff are ready to help with everything from a last-minute dinner reservation to a long-term parking solution.

March is Women’s History Month, which gives us a chance to reflect on those who have changed our lives personally and transformed the world. Since 1987, March has been a time to highlight innovative, creative, and revolutionary women. Throughout the year, Algin Management seeks to appreciate, commemorate, and amplify the voices of all the fearless women on our team, in our social circles, and in our families. 

In fact, the founder of Algin, Albert Ginsberg, was so affected and inspired by the women in his family that he chose to name some of the most enchanting and alluring NYC no-fee rentals buildings in our portfolio after them. An unabashed family man, Ginsberg celebrated his daughters with two apartment buildings, The Liane and Hilary Gardens, and gave their mother’s name to The Pearl. Let’s see why these buildings are notable enough for Ginsberg to honor the most important women in his life. 

The Liane

Gramercy is one of Manhattan’s toniest enclaves with tree-lined streets, easy access to Midtown East, Madison Square Park, and all points Downtown, and, of course, the eponymous Gramercy Park that is the centerpiece of this old-school neighborhood. On quiet 21st Street, The Liane stands out as a convenience-filled respite from the bustle of the city. Here, you’ll find homes with all the amenities you’ll ever need, including state-of-the-art appliances, laundry, a live-in superintendent. Let the elevator whisk you from the immaculately renovated lobby to your studio or one-bedroom home where you can experience the ultimate in Gramercy living. 

Hilary Gardens

This soaring high-rise right in the heart of iconic Greenwich Village is one of the city’s most desirable locations. At Hilary Gardens, you have access to the culture and cuisine that Downtown living affords in a modern and well-appointment home. These sun-flooded studios, one- and two-bedroom homes are the perfect place for you and your family to experience it all. But you don’t have to look too far to find fun. Just head to the rooftop sky deck and swim in a heated pool* as you take in truly breathtaking panoramic views of the entire city. 

The Pearl 

The Pearl towers 23 stories above the Upper East Side, affording residents world-class vistas from their luxury homes in the sky through floor-to-ceiling windows. There’s a lot of shopping and dining to be had on the UES, but with gorgeous hardwood floors, custom kitchens, terraces, and sumptuous bathrooms, you might never want to leave, whether you’re in a one-, two-, or three-bedroom abode. 

Contact us to learn more about all the no-fee Manhattan apartments available to you this month and beyond!

*Rooftop pool open during summer months. 

Murray Hill combines the quaint with a center-of-it-all location, which means its local shops and restaurants offer the best of the best with a personal twist. It’s easy to bring a little spark into your life and to make those days and nights romantic and fun via a plethora of shops and restaurants with pickup and delivery options for delicious meals or those ‘little things’ that transform times of day into precious moments.

There is nothing that lifts a mood like a masterfully crafted bouquet of flowers—or that more radiantly foregrounds a window filled with dusk’s glow. AAA Flowers is a family-run Murray Hill gem that provides free delivery service, even for a last-minute surprise for a friend, colleague, or loved one. For a burst of color and a sweet gesture of love or friendship, send the Heavenly Hues Bouquet, a delicate combination of hydrangea, roses, carnations, and asters that plays with varieties of yellow and powdery blues. If you want to make a statement, or even create a tropical paradise in a corner of your home, try the Tropical Flight, a tall and striking glass vase of Birds of Paradise as transporting as it is architectural. Whichever arrangement you choose, know that the expert crafters at AAA Flowers will select the freshest, most abundant blooms for your arrangement, 

With a backdrop of natural beauty, the stage is set for a meal at home that becomes a celebration when there are so many exciting and innovative local restaurants to choose from. Hill and Bay is a neighborhood favorite, which, according to Time Out New York, offers “relaxed brasserie fare” and “comfort food aplenty, including a variety of burgers, warming entrees like chicken mash kale and a range of pasta dishes.” They also offer the kinds of cocktails that combine innovative flavors with a sense of play, like the Ferris Mule’ers Day Off, which features vodka, ginger beer, and fresh lime juice. 

Tiberias is a completely kosher Murray Hill restaurant that draws crowds, whether they keep kosher or not, due to its commitment to the finest, freshest ingredients. A splash of the Mediterranean via the Middle East, Tiberias offers pizzas that feature the best of these regions, such as Greek feta cheese, halloumi cheese, and wild mushrooms. They also offer a wide range of seafood entrees with elegant touches, like the baked sea bass with a white wine reduction, and a full sushi menu featuring some of the freshest fish around, which you can order a la carte or in a combo platter. This is also the kind of place where you won’t want to skimp on dessert. Try the Oreos on Fire, which features fried Oreos atop a savoiardi cake doused in espresso, and your celebration in the heart of Manhattan will be complete. 

Embrace the coming of spring with a romantic evening in Murray Hill! Looking to begin a new life in this esteemed neighborhood? Contact the Algin leasing team and discover your new home on Murray Hill today!

Located at the corner of Waverly and Mercer Streets in the heart of Greenwich Village, Hilary Gardens puts residents in the center of the world’s greatest city.

For even better vistas, residents can head up to the building’s rooftop deck to enjoy sweeping Manhattan views.

Originally built in 1976, Hilary Gardens has undergone a full renovation, bringing the building’s lobby as well as the kitchens and baths in the residences up to modern luxe standards. The 24-hour doorman and on-site valet make sure that each resident’s return is smooth and comfortable as they welcome them into the lobby, where 20-foot ceilings make an immediate impression. 

The residences themselves are perfect for entertaining, working from home, or just relaxing with family.

Large windows flood these no-fee rentals in NYC with natural light, and some select residences feature spacious private balconies with Empire State Building views.

During the summer months, all residents at Hilary Gardens have access to the building’s grand rooftop deck, which stands 35 stories above the street. The large temperature-controlled pool* and wide rooftop deck look out on a panoramic view of Lower Manhattan, framed by the East and Hudson Rivers and anchored by the superlative height of One World Trade. Between epic views, the large pool, and ample space to relax on chaise lounges, the rooftop deck at Hilary Gardens feels a million miles away from the sidewalks below.

But that’s what makes living at Hilary Gardens so special. Residents can grab a meal at one of their favorite spots on MacDougal Street, take a stroll through Washington Square Park on their way home, and be standing on the rooftop deck 15 minutes later. So, why not head over to the availability page and secure your new Greenwich Village rental at Hilary Gardens today? For a limited time, Hilary Gardens is offering two months free on a 14- or 26-month lease, making now the right moment to select your new place to live!

Looking for a new, no-fee rental in NYC? The first step is to take a virtual tour of the apartments available at The Townsway—giving yourself a feel for the size and quality of these covetable NYC residences. Like what you see? They’re available for immediate occupancy in 2021. Let’s get a taster of the one-bedroom and studio apartments on offer right now.

A Wonderful One-Bedroom Home

A virtual walk around Residence 8M shows off this light and airy one-bedroom rental. From the comfort of your current home, picture yourself rustling up something delicious in this Townsway kitchen, fitted with stainless-steel appliances and custom cabinetry. Take an online stroll—across the hardwood floors—into the living room, visualizing the sofas, prints, and plants you’ll use to make this apartment a home. Do the same in the bedroom, with its capacious walk-in closet and Manhattan skyline views. You’ll notice there’s an additional walk-in closet in the hallway outside the bedroom. Then admire the freshly appointed bathroom with European tiles and updated fixtures. Something else to admire is the price of this one-bedroom apartment: just $2,695 per month.

A Superlative Studio

Step into Studio 1E, and you can immediately picture yourself hosting socially distanced gatherings with your close family. The bedroom walks out onto a private ground-floor patio, ensconced by a smart wooden fence, lending privacy and quietude. This kind of outdoor space is a real find in New York City and will prove perfect for mulled drinks around the fire pit in the winter and BBQs and picnics in the spring and summer. Studio 1E’s interior is equally welcoming: the open-aspect kitchen—again, with stainless-steel appliances and custom cabinetry—looks out over the bedroom and living space and forms an inviting and practical place to work, rest, and play. Elsewhere, walk-in closets provide ample storage space. All this, for just $2,650 a month.

All the Added Bonuses

While The Townsway’s virtual tours are ideal introductions to the apartments, they can’t show you everything the building has to offer. They don’t, for example, show you the 24-hour doorman, the dedicated laundry room, the live-in resident manager who’s there for any questions and requests, or the on-site parking*. The tours also don’t show you the slew of Manhattan shops, bars, and parks situated on the doorstep of these no-fee apartments. Then again, if—as we think—you like what you see, you’ll be calling in early in the New Year to see The Townsway in person.

Contact the Algin leasing team and discover your new home in Gramercy Park!

*On-site parking may incur an additional fee.

If you want a central Manhattan location, there’s no better place to look than the lively neighborhood of Murray Hill. Residents have easy access to Wall Street and Midtown’s business hubs for work, as well as the unique culture of the East and West Villages, Chelsea, and the rest of Downtown. To top it all off, no-fee Murray Hill rentals from Algin Management afford you access to one of NYC’s most important features: food, food, and more food. 

No matter what no-fee Algin Management property you reside in, you’re always a short walk away from some world-class international cuisine. So, let’s take a grand tour of some of the delectable international delicacies without ever leaving Murray Hill. 

Holding off on travel plans to our southerly neighbor, Mexico? Just take a quick—under five-minute—stroll from 530 Second Ave. to Park Avenue South and indulge in the delicious and authentic Mexican dishes of Dos Caminos. Start with their freshly made tortilla chips, paired with a salsa flight ranging from mild to muy picante, or street-food-style “bocaditos,” like cheesy fundido dip or crispy taquitos. Dig in and get ready for the house specials of rich and spicy enchiladas, enveloped in handmade tortillas smothered in savory sauces, or a sizzling fajita. You’d be remiss in visiting Dos Caminos without ordering their “made-to-order” guacamole and their expertly prepared signature margaritas. Best of all, if you don’t feel like dining in, Dos Caminos is currently offering takeout.

If you’re in the mood for some genuine Italian food, we suggest you try a dish or two from Tarallucci e Vino. This isn’t your typical “red sauce joint”; it’s part of a restaurant group, initially focused on European expats, that’s been around for almost 20 years, and for a good reason: the food is unparalleled. Bring a bit of Abruzzo home when you order delivery from Tarallucci e Vino to your apartment at 148 East 30th St. Indulge in cheese and cured meat with a Salumi E Formaggi board or go meatless with a transcendent lasagna made with an “Impossible Meat” ragu. Recently, Gambero Rosso hailed this spot as one of the “Top Italian Restaurants in New York.”

Sushi and sake lovers in Murray Hill worship the delicate, almost artistic rolls and sashimi at Sushi Yasuda. One Zagat review hails its culinary artistry as the sushi “of your dreams.” And the best part is you can have it ordered straight to your home. 

If you feel like forgoing dining out or ordering in and want a more hands-on approach to dinner, skip the grocery store and go straight to the source of delicious food. Lebanese restaurant ilili serves at-home cooking kits of their fare. Impress your family with a fall-off-the-bone roast chicken or a distinctive and succulent braised lamb.

When you’re in Murray Hill, you’re surrounded by some of the most incredible food in the city—and the world. To find the ideal home for you, contact Algin Management’s team for more information about their no-fee rental apartments today.

As winter sweeps across NYC, residents of Sessanta’s no-fee rentals have the luxury of retreating indoors with a range of prime amenities—from the indoor lap pool to a comfy media lounge. Let’s batten down the hatches and make the most of what’s on offer inside.

Stay Fit Without Going Far
Sessanta is a stone’s throw from Central Park to the east and Riverside Park South to the west—but you needn’t even travel that far for your fitness fix. Commence your day warming up in the dedicated yoga and Pilates room or admiring the landscaped vista while burning off calories via the fitness center’s state-of-the-art equipment, including Peloton bikes. Swimming
more your jam? Enjoy doing backstrokes in the 40-foot indoor lap pool, which overlooks a garden courtyard. By the way, there’s no fear of the water being cold: it’s temperature controlled.

An Office from Home
If you’re one of the many millions working from home right now, Sessanta’s business center is the ideal spot for plugging in, logging on, and powering through the workday. Individual cubicles with generous workspace give you the quiet and privacy you need—plus the center is equipped with printers and large-screen computers.

Fun, Games, and Films
Whenever you need to take time out from the computer screen, head to Sessanta’s media lounge, which boasts comfy sofas (ideal for flopping down on and poring over a novel or magazine) and billiards and foosball tables. The media lounge also has a film projector with an oversized screen—you can pop some corn in your Sessanta kitchen before curling up and watching a classic movie without even having to leave the building.

A Breath of Fresh Air
While you might be sheltering from the elements in style, there’s also the option to step outside and catch some fresh air. At Sessanta, you can do this in the private courtyard garden—an oasis where you can relax on a bench with a coffee and embrace the bracing New York City breeze…safe in the knowledge that your toasty apartment is just a few steps away.

The Rest of Manhattan at Your Fingertips
Of course, there will be moments when you want to get out and safely explore Manhattan. In these topsy-turvy times, it’s tricky knowing what’s open and what isn’t. Why not leave it to your 24/7 concierge? They’ll take care of any research and booking, meaning you can simply show up to whatever’s been arranged and have a good time.

Not yet part of the Sessanta lifestyle? Contact Algin Management to find out about Sessanta’s Upper West Side no-fee luxury rentals.

At Algin Management, we spend 12 months a year matching house-hunters with the perfect no-fee apartments in NYC, and this season, we’re sending out a special cocktail menu for residents of these luxury pads. Put on that holiday-inspired cap, head to the bar cart, and whip up one of these holiday-themed drinks to enjoy with your loved ones.

Bring a festive color palette to the evening with this Red Stag Dirty Shirley, a boozy twist on the classic nonalcoholic cocktail. Made with black cherry liqueur-infused Red Stag Bourbon, grenadine, lime soda, and the iconic bar treat maraschino cherries, this sweet concoction comes out bright red and a little bubbly, looking a bit like a drinkable Christmas Tree ornament.

Revelers yearning for a drink that packs an even stronger punch will love these White Christmas Margaritas. This seasonal update to the iconic Tijuana cocktail recipe brings coconut into the lime-forward flavor profile, replaces the traditional rim salt with sanding sugar, and drops in a few cranberries for good measure, resulting in a sweet take on the beloved sour beverage. Try making these margaritas alongside the Red Stag Dirty Shirleys for an attractive red-and-white Christmas cookie-themed night of drinks!

Of course, we can’t leave our teetotaling friends in the lurch. This season, try mixing up one of the booze-free cocktails from this list that Town & Country has compiled from high-end bars around the nation. The foamy Lamplighter Inn combines heavy cream and coffee grounds syrup(!) with a dash of lemon juice and egg whites for an after-dinner caffeinated treat, the Holiday Mule brings all the best non-vodka parts of a Moscow Mule to the table as well as a sprig of rosemary and a dash of powdered sugar, and Christmas Lights mixes the trendy fermented beverage kombucha with juice and sorrel tea for a puckering mocktail. And no holiday season would be complete without eggnog, available from T&C in the form of their nonalcoholic yet still delicious recipe.

No holiday would be complete without a cozy place to celebrate, and that’s where Algin Management can help. Check out the current availability in our portfolio of luxury Manhattan apartment buildings, then schedule a tour and begin planning a new home for your holiday cocktails!

New York City is one of the world’s most celebrated culinary capitals—from mom-and-pop shops frequented by in-the-know foodies, to Michelin-star destinations helmed by celebrity chefs. Here are three of our favorite Gramercy Park gems, which are all currently offering outdoor seating options and delivery for our residents at The Liane and The Townsway who prefer to dine at home.

Mediterranean cuisine is probably best known for promoting health and longevity. But Barbounia on Park Avenue takes fresh ingredients and elevates them to exquisitely prepared perfection. The secret behind their next-level dishes may be their large wood-burning oven, which warms the fresh bread served alongside hummus and grills the Portuguese octopus, among other dishes. The fish offerings are among the deliciously eclectic menu’s showstoppers and ideal for savoring with an expertly crafted cocktail or glass of wine.

A good neighborhood Italian restaurant is a must—and Novita in Gramercy Park meets that requirement with aplomb (and with a convenient delivery option). On offer is excellent modern Italian fare in a charmingly authentic trattoria with spacious outdoor seating and the type of servers that remember your go-to dish and the perfect wine pairing suggestion. Simple staples like the penne al pomodoro with mozzarella and basil and the pappardelle with lamb ragu will satisfy the inevitable weeknight pasta craving. But for an indulgent touch, the truffle-rich butter sauce served with the homemade porcini ravioli and the Kobe beef Bolognese sauce come highly recommended. Just save room for the profiteroles and tiramisu. 

For date night, or simply an evening of decadent French cuisine, Boucherie offers traditional brasserie and steakhouse fare (with delivery, pickup, and outdoor seating options) in a chic, old-school atmosphere. Start the evening off with a kick, with one of the specialty absinthe cocktails, and settle in with one of the nicely curated wines (French, of course). The menu features classic French dishes, from their rich mousse de foie gras and escargots starters to the salade Nicoise, coq au vin, merguez ratatouille, and duck leg confit. Or indulge from their steak selection, which includes Wagyu top sirloin, ribeye, filet mignon, and a heart-stopping 16-oz. Pat LaFrieda dry-aged New York strip. Of course, dinner wouldn’t be complete without a selection of cheeses and a crème brulee or crepes Suzette.

Residents of The Townsway and The Liane have a wide range of fine dining at their disposal, and matching international cuisine to your New York City mood is just one of the many perks of a Gramercy Park lifestyle. Find out more about Algin Management’s Gramercy Park homes by contacting the Algin leasing team for more information.

Greenwich Village is one of New York City’s most alluring neighborhoods — and for good reason. Here, Old World charm and aesthetics harmonize with a decidedly modern vibe, whether it’s cuisine, couture, or culture. In the center of it all, just off Astor Place, is the epitome of this harmony: the no-fee rental apartments at Hilary Gardens.

The first thing you’ll notice about this recently renovated luxury Downtown apartment building is its ideal location. From Hilary Gardens, you’re just a short distance away from all of the splendors of Downtown NYC. Stroll to Washington Square Park in less than five minutes, shop Soho, take a bike ride to the Hudson River by way of the West Village, or explore St. Mark’s Place and the East Village — and still be home in under 10 minutes. You’ll always find lots to do when you’re in the heart of it all. 

But thanks to the world-class amenities at Hilary Gardens, you may never want to leave home. From the moment the valet parks your car in the on-site garage and the 24-hour doorman greets you to the time you open the door to your spacious and sun-flooded home, you’ll be surrounded by the ultimate in indulgence. There’s no need to go out to the gym for a workout when you have an on-site fitness center* at your disposal. And in warm weather, head to the roof for a dip in the pool*, where you’ll experience some of the most stunning 360 degree vistas of NYC in town. 

The J-Line at Hilary Gardens takes this luxury experience to the next level with spacious layouts, an outdoor terrace, plenty of storage with an in-unit washer & dryer, and jaw-dropping views of Greenwich Village. These two-bedroom homes are ideal for those raising a family or anyone who wants the space for a home office or an extra room for guests. And these apartments have two bathrooms — one en suite — a perk that is almost unheard of, especially when you’re talking about Downtown NYC living.

Those with a penchant for entertaining will find that the J-Line offers them more than enough square footage. Plan a movie night with friends or loved ones and gather in the massive living room. Channel your inner chef and whip up a time-tested favorite meal or experiment on a new dish in your state-of-the-art kitchen. And you can pick up fresh, top-quality ingredients from the nearby Union Square Greenmarket. Whatever you choose to cook, those lucky enough to sample your food can savor it in the home’s elegant dining room. 
Whether you’re hosting, out and about in the Village, or just relaxing, Hilary Gardens is truly unapparelled Downtown living. Contact the Algin leasing team for more information.

As fall sets in, and temperatures drop, you may want to focus more of your exercise routine indoors rather than out. For NYC residents of the no-fee rentals from Algin Management, there’s some excellent news: their state-of-the-art fitness centers are reopening this month. That means stretching, sprinting, swimming, and saunaing—without having to leave your apartment building. 

Situated on the doorstep of Washington Square Park, Hilary Gardens is in a prime location for brisk morning jogs among the rusty-leafed trees. When you’d rather stay inside, however, the apartments cater to fitness fanatics via an expansive fitness center*. Fitted out with high-tech running machines, cross-trainers, and weight-lifting equipment, this space is for residents of Hilary Gardens and their guests only, so you can be assured of safe distancing. 

ARO is something of a high-rise haven for residents who like to keep active. Its fitness center* offers state-of-the-art equipment that’ll ensure you start your morning right, while the yoga room provides a more tranquil setting in which to flex and prepare for the day ahead. Have fun while keeping fit by taking advantage of the indoor basketball court and golf simulator*. What’s more, all ARO residences are fitted with a washer and dryer, so you can keep your casual and fun workout clothes fresh and ready to wear.

The on-site gym* at The Parkview reopens this month, giving residents exclusive access to all the equipment they need to stay in shape. Simply slide out of bed and stroll to the stairs (or elevator, if you’re not yet energized) to the fitness center, then treat yourself to a nutritious breakfast in your contemporary kitchen. Residents can also take advantage of the roof deck*, 19 lofty stories up. Bring your mat up here for sunrise yoga or morning meditation sessions and soak up stunning vistas of NYC while you’re at it.

Located in the heart of Midtown West, the sky-high homes at ARO sit atop a nexus of world-class transportation, food delivery, and parks. The 61-story tower, designed by architect John Cetra, features a flowing, curvilinear facade that incorporates the private balconies and large, sun-welcoming floor-to-ceiling windows that are a part of each home. In a time of sheltering in place, the spacious rentals at ARO represent an oasis of comfort, convenience, and luxury high above the busy streets of Manhattan.

One of the benefits of living in the middle of everything is being able to go anywhere quickly and easily. With access to the red, blue, orange, and yellow subway lines within a few blocks of its front door, ARO is a haven for commuters, whether they’re heading downtown or all the way to New Jersey. The Lincoln Tunnel, just a mile away, makes getting out of the city via car as easy as can be, so day trips to skiing and hiking spots throughout the Northeast are a simple matter of heading down to ARO’s private parking garage. And, if you’re looking for a midday escape or weekend picnic that’s close to home, the vast expanse of Central Park opens up just six short blocks north of these Midtown West luxury apartments.

At ARO, you don’t need to go out to take in the sights of New York City. All of the residences, ranging in size from studios to three-bedrooms, feature floor-to-ceiling windows that provide views of the Hudson River and other nearby landmarks. Each home offers a private balcony that gives residents their own lookout post over the city, while the rooftop pool deck serves as a communal hangout with a spectacular backdrop. 

Inside the residences, kitchen islands serve as food prep stations as well as informal dining spaces — perfect for times when residents want to cook and share a meal at home with roommates or family. For other nights, residents can take advantage of the host of world-class restaurants in the neighborhood. Head over to Boqueria for an outdoor Spanish tapas meal featuring classic takes on favorites like pan con tomate, chorizo, and churros. Or, order some Cuban delicacies from Guantanamera, the hip eatery and bar that offers everything from paella to hand-rolled cigars. Order takeout, bring it back to your ARO home, open up the balcony doors, and enjoy a fresh breeze while watching the sun sink over the Hudson. 

Take a virtual tour of your future ARO home and get excited about living in this singular building! These rentals are going fast, so don’t wait — start living your best Midtown Manhattan life now. Contact the Algin leasing team for more information and current availabilities across the portfolio.

New York is a city where residents know how to live well. From cuisine to culture to couture, NYC is always on the cutting edge of contemporary living. So, it’s no surprise that those who love convenience and refinement turn to Algin Management’s ultramodern, ultrasophisticated ARO when looking for Midtown West luxury apartments. 

ARO is located in the heart of one of Manhattan’s most vibrant and historic neighborhoods: Midtown West. Living in this exciting locale means that everything New York is known for is within easy reach. Central Park, the Theater District, Fifth Avenue, and the Hudson River are within 15 minutes. And did we mention that so are many of the city’s top restaurants? 

But as home has become more important recently, ARO also offers an elevated approach to staying inside.  And we mean “elevated” literally. At over 60 stories high, ARO rises above the rest of the luxury apartments in Midtown West, and its undulating exterior clad in floor-to-ceiling windows on each floor gives those living inside cinematic views and natural light. While the panoramas from every home at ARO are exceptional, we know it’s the day-to-day aspects that truly make it a place worth living in.

From the studios to the stunning duplex penthouses, close attention has been paid to every aspect of the interior design. Natural materials contrast with the city views, making each airy and light-filled apartment feel warm and inviting. Living and dining spaces blend with the chef’s kitchen that is the ultimate in at-home dining and entertaining for yourself and your family. Or if a spa day sounds more appealing than cooking, the spa-like bathroom will beckon residents to light a few candles and steam their troubles away in the glass ensconced showers surrounded by marble walls and floors. 

At ARO, there are 40,000 square feet of amenities* where you can still be at home and always have a lot of space to enjoy yourself whether you’re working out at the gym or just enjoying the outdoors upon the landscaped terraces. Then, there is the Sky Club at the very pinnacle of ARO, taking rooftop access to the next level. ARO’s signature jaw-dropping views are on display, but this private lounge and outdoor pool offer privacy and peace high above Midtown West.

And a weekend jaunt to the beach or a country retreat is easy, thanks to ARO’s parking garage that has an attendant around the clock. At ARO, as with all of its properties, Algin Management has taken every measure to make sure home is just as safe and just as luxurious as it has always been.

With a season of sheltering in place already under our belts, Americans are looking at their homes with new appreciation, and interior space is becoming increasingly premium. With sleek, spacious interiors and a suite of amenities that rival most resorts, the no-fee rental apartments at Sessanta are some of the most desirable homes in Manhattan right now. These modern homes combine comfort, security, and recreation without sacrificing proximity to New York City’s best public spaces.

The building’s 301 homes range in size from studios to three bedrooms and feature spacious terraces—dependent on availability and residence type—as well as interiors decked out with the finest finishes and equipped with state-of-the-art appliances. Conveniences like the in-unit washer/dryer and stainless-steel appliances make doing chores a treat, while bathrooms clad in Italian porcelain tile with Kohler fixtures make the morning routine a joy. Floor-to-ceiling windows admit ample natural light and provide unobstructed Upper West Side views, while private terraces allow residents to take a breath of fresh air from the safety of their own home.

Sessanta also really comes to life and summer living in the amenity spaces*, which give residents the ability to exercise and relax without leaving their building. Social distancing of six feet and masks are, in fact, required in all common spaces, and the building has also installed sanitation stations. In the fitness center, Sessanta residents will find a full-size indoor lap pool as well as an exercise room with a full range of modern equipment. Outside, Sessanta features a full-size tennis court for exclusive use by the residents, an exceedingly rare amenity in Manhattan and one that sets the building apart from the competition. Next to the court, a peaceful English garden, with perennial and annual flowers, paints the colorful backdrop for taking a break during a day spent working from home. Residents will also love enjoying their morning coffee or an evening cold brew in the garden, which brings a verdant, cool vibe to the concrete and edgy Manhattan landscape.

The building was named “Sessanta,” which means “sixty” in Italian, because of its address on 60th Street between Amsterdam and West End Avenues, a location that grants residents convenient access to some of NYC’s best outdoor spaces. After all, Sessanta sits just two blocks from the border of Central Park, which holds more than enough activities and exploration for any summer, while Riverside Park South is just a block in the opposite direction. Whether they desire a cool stroll along the Hudson River or a ramble down park paths beneath tall trees, residents will appreciate how close these famous green spaces are to Lincoln Center.
Contact the Algin leasing team to check the availability at Sessanta and start a summer of safe and convenient fun in your new Upper West Side home!

Now more than ever, people are appreciating the simple gestures in life. Show someone you love how much they mean to you by arranging a romantic evening in. Plenty of nearby places, including restaurants, florists, and cocktail bars, can help you throw together an intimate occasion in your Algin Management apartment in Murray Hill.

Nothing says “I love you” like a beautiful assortment of flowers, so get your surprise underway with an order of blooms. Gabriela Wakeham offers same-day delivery on upscale bouquets: think arrangements of orchids, tulips, and lisianthus—or red roses with long stems presented in nautilus vases. Sahola will deliver to your apartment at short notice too: their artfully concocted bouquets include themes on Monet, Orchid Obsession, and Moulin Rouge—and will leave your Murray Hill apartment looking splendid (and smelling fragrant) for days after.

Missing your favorite Midtown cocktail bars? Some will bring their drinks to you. While your partner is still enjoying their flowers, galvanize your wooing moves with drinks couriered directly from Patent Pending. Usually dishing up the liquid goods in their Radio Wave Building venue, right now they’re serving up the likes of an Illuminated Manhattan (an explosive mix featuring Campfire Whiskey, aged rum, scotch, Madeira, gunpowder tea, and mole) or an AC/DC (Blanche Armagnac, peach, fennel, and genever—among other things). You may notice the names all relate to electricity: Patent Pending is based in the building where Nikola Tesla performed his experiments on radio waves. One or two of these concoctions will certainly spark up your evening.

It’s no secret that New York City is great for eating out, but right now, many of its best restaurants are offering at-home eat-in. Imagine the look on your partner’s face when they answer the door to a dinner for two of short rib spring rolls, followed by filet mignon served with frizzled onions and grilled tomato from high-end steak restaurant La Brochette. If you’re after a spicier evening, order in from Baby Bo’s Cantina, a beloved Mexican eatery that’s been serving Murray Hill locals for 25 years. ‘Wow’ your better half’s taste buds with smoky black bean soup, grilled green chile shrimp fajitas, and tortillas loaded with chicken, sweet plantains, Monterey Jack, and mole poblano. Then relax in your Murray Hill residence with romantic music playing and your stomachs—and your hearts—full.

The Upper East Side is celebrated for its high-end dining; name almost any type of cuisine, and this NYC neighborhood does it with panache. And in the current circumstances, many are doing contactless food delivery directly to your door.

Four of Algin Management’s no-fee apartment buildings—330 East 85th St., 96th Street Brownstones, The Parkview, and The Pearl—have the honor of being in the delivery area of the following restaurants. Time to get your orders in. 

Mediterranean dishes—with a particular focus on Greece and Cyprus—are realized with exceptional care at Korali Estiatorio. Commence your feast by sharing a meze of grilled octopus and scallops with asparagus and onion soubise. For main dishes, feast on Papoutsakia (braised eggplant stuffed with ground beef and smothered in bechamel) or the Shrimp Santorini (in which jumbo shrimp, tomato, and feta masterfully combine). For the full experience, select a Greek wine from the menu: we recommend the Assyrtiko Hatzigiannis white.

In 10 successful years, Libertador has become something of an Upper East Side institution for those who adore juicy, melt-in-the-mouth steaks. The mixed grill for two is a good place to start: share this mouthwatering chef’s selection of short ribs, New York strip steak, and chicken breast with a side serve of French fries Provencal. The Libertador chefs will cook the meat to your exact liking—just as they would do if you were sitting at a table in their Manhattan restaurant. And for decadent lunch eats, check out the range of grilled meat sandwiches or salads tossed with cheese. A tasty end-of-week treat.

A trip to Japan might be off the cards in the current situation, but the reviews for dishes delivered by Meijin Ramen are near-impeccable—and if you haven’t yet ordered any of their out-of-this-world food, it’s time that changed. For a wholesome meal, opt for the veggie ramen—loaded with green spinach noodles, Enoki mushrooms, and tofu—with an appetizer of spicy edamame. In a more daring mood? You’re catered for with the Japanese fried chicken or pork loin katsu curry, washed down with a lychee mojito. (Warning: you’ll be drinking these all summer long.)

You can also bring the taste of freshly prepared sushi into your NYC apartment, thanks to Poke. Tantalize your taste buds with red snapper sashimi, sweet-tasting Kumamoto oysters, and spicy crab tempura hand rolls—delivered at zippy speed to your home. A highly satisfying yet healthy banquet is guaranteed. If you’re ordering on the weekend, be sure to have a bottle of sake on hand.

At Hilary Gardens, staying home isn’t just a choice—it’s often a preference. Elegant interiors and finishes, stunning views of New York City, and enviable residents-only amenities make this one of Manhattan’s most covetable destinations for no-fee apartments. 

With a Hilary Gardens apartment, you can let Manhattan come to you. Oversized windows look out onto breathtaking skyline views. Relax in your living room with hardwood floors, pour yourself a drink, put on a quintessential NYC soundtrack—think The Velvet Underground, Billie Holiday, Wu-Tang Clan, and Vampire Weekend—and admire the city from your armchair. You can also relax in the leafy, landscaped plaza in front of Hilary Gardens, watching the world go by. And when you’re ready to head back inside, there’ll be a 24-hour doorman to greet you.

Although Hilary Gardens apartments are packed with “wow” factor, they’re also wonderfully homey spaces. Now is a better time than ever to learn how to cook, and Hilary Gardens offers the perfect gourmet area to do so. Make the most of the kitchen, with its stainless-steel appliances and stone countertops, by following the lead of fiery Brit Gordon Ramsay on MasterClass. Once your culinary masterpiece is complete, why not crash out and enjoy it in front of a quality TV show? Now’s a good time to get an Apple TV+ subscription and delve into the brilliant Aniston/Carell TV anchor drama, The Morning Show, or the 10-part docuseries Dear…, which hones in on world-changing legends, including Spike Lee, Oprah Winfrey, and Stevie Wonder.

Crowning this 35-story Manhattan residence is a two-level rooftop sky deck.*  From up here, you can luxuriate in 360-degree views of NYC while soaking up the summer sun. Chat with your fellow Hilary Gardens residents or simply get lost in a podcast. Best of all, the sky deck boasts a heated rooftop pool, meaning you can do laps while admiring the iconic Manhattan skyline. Then recline on one of the pool-side loungers with a drink. Rather than jogging along the Manhattan streets, make the most of the treadmills and weights at the Fitness Center. And, as evening sets in, you can hunker down in the on-site sauna. Everything about Hilary Gardens gives you a warm feeling.

Life for an Algin resident on the Upper West Side is one of convenience. Everything you could want in or near a no-fee apartment in Manhattan is on-site or just a moment away.

With three of Algin’s properties located in the Upper West Side, including Sessanta, 461 Central Park West, and 242 West 61st St., you’re never more than a few minutes from world-class facilities such as Lincoln Center, the American Museum of Natural History, and Columbia University. And the amenities at all three locations are second to none. The Upper West Side is the perfect place to become a part of a vibrant community.

In addition to the finest performance spaces and internationally renowned institutions, all three of these properties put you close to Central Park. The seemingly endless expanse of the world’s most famous green space makes for the ultimate playground. Explore miles of paths, lounge on the lawns, or play your favorite sport on one of many fields or courts. In the winter, ice skating sets the mood for the season, while spring flowers, summer sun, and fall festivals and leaf viewing put you in close touch with nature.

Gaze at beautiful views of the park from your home at 461 Central Park West. Then make a feast like no other in your stunning kitchen with stainless-steel appliances. A subway stop is a short two blocks away, ready to take you where you need to be. 

The residences at 242 West 61st St., too, have elegant stainless-steel appliances that provide clean, contemporary styling and performance to your kitchen, while the laundry room with commercial washer and dryer eliminates having to go out to have those bulkier items cleaned. For those needing extra storage, storage bins are also available for an additional fee.

Families will find Sessanta to be an irresistible base for all sorts of excursions. Pier 96 with its kayak and canoe rentals and Pier 90 with its cruise terminal sits to the east for those looking for adventures on the river or even the high seas. The Hudson River Greenway and its miles and miles of scenic waterfront paths are perfect for running, walking, or biking. And if you feel like staying home, the 40-foot indoor pool, spa, outdoor tennis courts, and Sessanta Club are sure to keep you entertained. Residents from the other properties are welcome to use the amenities at Sessanta for an additional fee.

For those looking for no-fee apartment rentals in NYC, Algin has the perfect Upper West Side home for you. Conveniently located near shopping, culture, outdoor adventure, and entertainment, these homes provide the best of New York right at your doorstep. What’s more, the convenience and access to essential and luxury amenities such as an indoor pool are another bonus to calling one of these Algin properties home.

Manhattan boasts some world-beating sunsets. The combination of iconic cityscapes and languid summer evenings is the stuff dreams are made of. Even more so, when you’re gifted with somewhere special to watch it unfold. Residents of The Parkview—a 19-story luxury rental apartment building, steps away from Madison Avenue and the historic Carnegie Hill neighborhood—have just the alfresco on-site destination to drink in an NYC sundown.

While the city is more subdued than usual—and the usual rooftop restaurants and bars remain closed—what a joy it is to have your own spacious roof deck, festooned with pretty planters. After a hard day working from home (or harder still, doing the childcare), the roof deck’s comfortable wooden benches are ideal for reclining with a chilled beer or wine. Put a podcast or playlist on your headphones and watch the majestic skyline gradually change color. 

The roof deck also features stylish picnic benches. On the weekend, why not whip up a few tasty salads and pasta dishes—in your contemporary kitchen with granite countertops—and pack them up in a basket? You don’t have far to go: your park in the sky awaits, with vistas of the East River, Upper East Side, and Central Park stretching out before you. And as a predinner aperitif, why not mix up a tequila sunset cocktail? Certainly fitting for the occasion.

We’ve already mentioned children—and if you do have little ones, they, too, are accommodated by The Parkview’s roof deck. If they aren’t yet worn out from playing in the nearby Central Park during the day, they can continue their escapades on the roof deck’s playground. How many kids can say they have their own outdoor recreation ground, 19 stories up?

The roof deck is there for you any time of day: a spot for early-morning yoga while the sun rises over the river, the right place for some fresh air while you’re on a long conference call or taking a half-hour lunch break with a view. Or maybe you’re doing a bit of bird or plane watching with the kids. You could even take a sketchbook up there one afternoon and recreate the dazzling summer views on paper.

Even as Manhattan begins to get back to normal—and the cornucopia of museums, shops, and bars surrounding The Parkview start to reopen—residents know that whenever they need it, their rooftop oasis is waiting for them.
Learn more about The Parkview by contacting our Leasing Team for more information and current availability.

Spring is here, bringing with it fresh breezes, warm sunlight, and that yearly urge to give your living room a makeover. This year, with many of us sheltering in place, our homes have taken on additional importance, giving new urgency to our decor goals while making us appreciate any time spent outdoors.

Residents of the Midtown West luxury apartments at ARO have ample outdoor access, but filling their homes with the perfect furniture presents additional challenges this spring. Fortunately, the worlds of online retail and design are filling the gap, using cutting-edge digital modeling and customization to reproduce the in-person experience via a tablet screen.

But how can you decide which home office setup or throw pillow is right for you without the knowing eye of a designer to guide you? One option is to bring your apartment into the digital space with a program like Modsy, which creates a detailed 3D model of your space that can then be filled with furniture to give you a sense of what those items would look like in your rooms. Modsy employs designers to work with customers in their digital space and then recreate it in their actual home, all without ever stepping into their building!

Residents who know what they want in a sofa should head to online retailers like AllModern and Restoration Hardware, where customers can choose between a range of timeless collections, each featuring a variety of highly customizable furniture, case goods, furnishings, and more. Whether you’re looking for a rich leather sectional sofa, a stylish reclaimed wood coffee table, or a shearling footstool, these brands have you covered. 

When the time comes to furnish your kitchen, head over to Sur La Table’s online store, and peruse their selection of stylish and useful cookware. Order a new set of colorful Le Creuset stoneware to complement your new dining table or upgrade your coffee grinder to a top-of-the-line De’Longhi to breathe new life into your kitchen.

This year, giving your decor a little freshening up has an extra level of urgency, so make sure to take full advantage of the tools and websites listed above to beautify your ARO residence with items that make it feel even more comfortable and special.

Like Murray Hill itself, Laurence Towers has undergone a few transformations over the years, and the latest round of renovations has made the building one of the finest in its neighborhood. Rising 32 stories, this white brick residential tower is nestled in the center of the Murray Hill/Kips Bay area, providing residents with spectacular views as well as easy access to the 6 subway and much more. 

The residences themselves are some of the best no-fee rentals on the market in NYC. Ranging in size from one to three bedrooms, these luxury homes feature spacious layouts with an abundance of closet space and stainless-steel appliances, including dishwashers, a rare treat in Manhattan. Along with admitting ample natural light, the windows reveal skyline views of the Empire State Building and East River, with Long Island City and Greenpoint beyond. Select homes, including all the two- and three-bedroom residences, feature private terraces.

Residents love the suite of amenities. The building software system keeps them connected, notifying them when a package has arrived and allows them to make service requests from the resident superintendent with the tap of a finger. The 24-hour doorman will assist residents in coordinating a valet pick-up/drop-off laundry service, guest access, and more. Many residents of Laurence Towers have cited the doorman as one of their favorite amenities and being greeted by a friendly face as you enter and exit is a long-standing New York City tradition for a good reason. Laurence Towers also features a state-of-the-art fitness center*, allowing residents to keep up their workout routine without leaving the building. 

Once a well-heeled neighborhood, Murray Hill began to draw in university students in the late 1990s, and it’s now home to a wide range of New Yorkers who bring taste and culture to this small corner of the island, while easy subway access and walkability bring the rest of NYC within striking distance. The building is just a few blocks from the Tisch and NYU hospitals on the East River, as well as entertainment options, including the Kips Bay 15-movie theater and green areas like the East River Esplanade.

Quite simply, we have to stay inside right now. That means that if you are living in one of the luxury no-fee residences at Sessanta, you are temporarily missing the rich and dynamic street life, the cultural attractions, and memorable dining experiences that help define the Upper West Side lifestyle. During this period of collective withdrawal from much of the physical reality of New York City, the city still looms large, though. And you can take some time to deepen your appreciation of your neighborhood by learning more about it and some of the other New Yorkers who have called it home.

You might begin in your Allmilmo kitchen, preparing food on your Caesarstone countertops, deploying the GE Profile stainless-steel appliances to create the meals (or maybe the desserts) you never had the time for before. Eater New York recently curated a list of cookbooks by New York restaurants and chefs, an excellent resource that will elevate your NYC cooking skills and may inspire you to hunt down recipes that can recreate your favorite meals at your favorite Upper West Side restaurants.

With the gorgeous cityscape views from Sessanta as your backdrop and a snack or two in hand, you can then settle down for a different kind of Upper West Side immersion. You could channel your childhood and read Madeleine L’Engle’s The Young Unicorns, which features the Cathedral of Saint John the Divine, where L’Engle worked for many years, among other UWS highlights. Or you could take another route and Seize the Day with Saul Bellow’s Tommy Wilhelm as he navigates through his complicated life and the UWS. Bellow’s Mr. Sammler’s Planet also plants its main character firmly in the neighborhood. Meanwhile, Mark Helprin’s time travel masterpiece, Winter’s Tale, gives a prominent place to the UWS. 

This may also be the opportunity to find out more about the history of your home base. Elizabeth Blackmar and Roy Rosenzweig’s The Park and the People: A History of Central Park illuminates some of the stories behind the nearby park, including the history of Seneca Village, a 19^th-century settlement of African Americans, Irish Americans, and German Americans that was demolished in order to clear the site. If you prefer to study espionage, you may be fascinated by the tidbits about the UWS in Spy Sites of New York City by H. Keith Melton and Robert Wallace.

As you wind down for the day, you could put on some Miles Davis, who lived in a brownstone at 312 West 77^th Street for more than two decades and soak in your bathtub, surrounded by Italian porcelain tile and Kohler fixtures. Or you could simply binge-watch Seinfeld and try to identify all its Upper West Side locations.Both inside and outside your home at Sessanta, the Upper West Side is an intriguing and exciting place to be. Stay safe and well.

With its cobbled streets and classic architecture, Greenwich Village has retained that feeling of Old New York better than most neighborhoods in Manhattan. While high-end housing like the Greenwich Village luxury apartments at the recently renovated Hilary Gardens make the Village a desirable place to live, the area’s rich history and unique personality make it feel like a wonderland. Hilary Gardens residents are in the ideal location to regularly taste this history at one-of-a-kind bars and restaurants that either recreate the past or were themselves part of it!

The Village first came onto the cultural and culinary scene in the prewar years, when it was the center of the Bohemian movement of artists and writers in New York. Dining options included traditional European tables d’hôtes, where guests dined with the host family and ate what was prepared without ordering off a menu. These (mostly) Italian diners were the heart of the Bohemian artist’s diet and also provided opportunities to converse about issues of the day over good food and mediocre wine. This experience, combined with better vino and an upgraded seafood menu, is available today at spots like Il Mulino and Babbo, which preserve the area’s Italian heritage.

Near the middle of the 20th century, with Prohibition having come and gone, the Village became home to a new group of artistic outsiders and the hub for a proliferation of nightclubs and gay bars that catered to a wide range of aesthetic interests. Both Barbra Streisand and Bob Dylan got their starts playing in these hip joints, which often stood on the same block as classic chophouses where the upper crust puffed cigars and sipped brandy in oak-paneled parlors. One Village gay bar, The Stonewall Inn, eventually made history with a riot that kicked off the LGBTQ civil rights movement that has altered the course of history. The Stonewall Inn still stands and celebrates that momentous event each year, encouraging Villagers and visitors to take their part in history.

Today, Greenwich Village combines historically relevant venues and cuisines with new and exciting restaurants to create one of the most dynamic culinary neighborhoods in the world. For history lovers and dedicated foodies, there’s no place like Greenwich Village, and the luxury apartments at Hilary Gardens are the perfect base from which to explore this deep well of cuisine.
So, head over to the building’s website to check availability and begin your new life as a Villager today!

Situated in one of New York’s most desirable neighborhoods, vibrant Greenwich Village, Hilary Gardens offers exclusive conveniences and amenities. These no-fee rental apartments in NYC possess a distinctly boutique feel that is both modern and comfortably inviting.

Rising 35 stories, Hilary Gardens provides unparalleled 360-degree views of Manhattan and beyond. As one of the most desirable addresses in the Village, the recently renovated building offers both one- and two-bedroom residences that are spacious and airy, yet intimate and cozy.

The lobby, with its 20-foot-tall, lofted ceiling, welcomes you to this reinvented property. Offering a 24/7 doorman and a modern security system with CCTV, Hilary Gardens also boasts a live-in property manager to ensure that your needs are always met — securely and conveniently.

The sanctuary of a beautiful home is made better with a state-of-the-art kitchen. Entertain or just enjoy cooking with your top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances set among the gleaming Caesarstone countertops and finely finished wood cabinetry. Expansive living spaces are made ever more open as light spills through the oversized windows, illuminating the beauty and warmth of hardwood floors. The renovated bathrooms are tastefully appointed and feature Carrera marble.

Stylish relaxation is just an elevator ride away on the building’s two-level rooftop sky deck, open seasonally and made available to residents for an additional fee. Take in the panoramic view of the Manhattan skyline or, in the warmer months, enjoy a dip in the climate-controlled swimming pool. Changing rooms are there for your convenience, and saunas invite you to stay for a little longer and focus on your wellness.

Convenient amenities make home a community. Take a membership at the in-house fitness center. Or, use the on-site laundry service. Those with a car will appreciate an attended parking garage with a 24/7 valet.

Located in the heart of Greenwich Village, these no-fee apartments in Manhattan at Hilary Gardens are the premier choice for luxury living in NYC. Take a tour and discover what’s in store for you at Algin Management’s Hilary Gardens.

Quaint candle-lit bistros, bouquets readily available on every street corner, evocative streets to saunter down as you’re bundled up. Can you think of a more poetic or charming city than New York City? Well, Valentine’s Day is almost here, and that means celebrating this special occasion with your loved one. Whether it’s dinner out or spending some time indoors in ARO’s gracious and welcoming no-fee NYC apartments, these Midtown West luxury rentals are the ideal home base for all your amorous endeavors.

Here are Algin Management’s recommendations for making the most of Valentine’s Day near ARO. 

Walk around the Park 

At ARO, you’re in the center of Manhattan, with seemingly every major park at your heels. Take a long meandering stroll through Central Park or Riverside Park. And nothing says over-the-top romanticism like a horse-and-carriage or pedicab ride around the Loop in Central Park. More coordinated couples should strap on a pair of skates at the iconic ice-skating rink at Rockefeller Center. Of course, you’ll want to wear a warm coat and gloves, but the brisk winter breezes will make you want to get a little closer. 

Not As Sweet As You

After all that outdoor activity, you’ll want to heat up and maybe consume some of the calories you burnt off and have a pre-dinner snack. On your way back home to ARO, stop off at Maison Kayser and pick up a pastry at an international institution that’s become synonymous with buttery baked goods and flaky croissants. Pro tip: grab a cup of their frothy and thick hot chocolate that’s as luscious as it is soul-warming. Another neighborhood hotspot is the beloved Bouchon Bakery located at Columbus Circle, best known for traditional Parisian delights, such as chocolate confections, tarts, macarons, and seasonally curated cheese boards. For Valentine’s Day, Chef Thomas Keller and team are baking heart-shaped cookies—shortbread and sugar—and mini-sized cakes for two.

A Meal Made with Love

It’s often said that a way to someone’s heart is through their stomach. And a home-cooked meal with a bottle or two of wine is an easy way to show off your culinary prowess and show someone you really care about them. At ARO, state-of-the-art appliances, ample space, and gorgeous Caesarstone countertops elevate any meal to the next level. Prepare an uncomplicated meal with the best ingredients you can find at Whole Foods at Columbus Circle, which is less than five minutes away from ARO. And even though you may already have been indulging in sweets, there’s no better way to cap off a Valentine’s Day than with a box of chocolates from the nearby Neuhaus flagship store as you watch the city twinkle around you from the heights of ARO in Midtown West.

Living in Murray Hill means comfort and convenience in a neighborhood of cozy brownstones and hip restaurants, where the beating heart of the world’s greatest metropolis meets a quieter lifestyle along the East River. But just because you make your home in the shadow of the Empire State Building doesn’t mean you can’t live a greener, cleaner life every day. Here at Algin Management, we encourage residents of our luxury no-fee apartment rentals in Manhattan to live the least wasteful and most efficient lives possible. And that starts with how we buy and store our food. Here are some simple steps Murray Hill residents can take when grocery shopping to help preserve a livable world for generations to come.

When shopping at a nearby grocery store, like the popular Trader Joe’s on Third Avenue, bring along reusable bags to carry and store what you buy. Single-use plastic bags are one of the most wasteful products used by Americans. According to the Center for Biological Diversity, “The average American family takes home almost 1,500 plastic shopping bags a year.” By simply buying a few reusable bags and using them for everyday shopping trips, Murray Hill residents can effortlessly help put an end to this type of pollution.

While shopping, look for recycled paper products, such as the paper towels made by Seventh Generation. Made from at least 80 percent post-consumer recycled fiber, these paper towels help mitigate the impact that harvesting forests for paper has on the environment. Simple decisions made while shopping can have a big impact on your family’s carbon footprint, and choosing recycled paper products is an easy and inexpensive way to promote stewardship of the Earth.

But what about when you get home with your groceries in your reusable bag? Take a look at the range of environmentally conscious items at Flying Tiger Copenhagen just south of Madison Square Park, where you will find metal and glass lunchboxes and storage containers that are perfect for keeping your dry goods fresh without generating a ton of used recyclables. Plus, with a host of fun cookware and serving options, Flying Tiger Copenhagen will help you stock your new kitchen with unique items.

Best of all, these items are reusable, making them a smart investment when moving into your new home. We hope these tips have been helpful and that residents of the Murray Hill homes from Algin Management will take them to heart the next time they head to the grocery store.

We look forward to welcoming you to your new, no-fee NYC apartment rental. Rent with us today!

For those fortunate enough to live in the luxury no-fee apartment rentals at 242 West 61st Street or Sessanta, Lincoln Center is a beacon of world-class culture right on your doorstep. Let yourself be lured away from the comfort of your living room to soak up the sounds of great performers bringing unforgettable moments to the hallowed stages of this legendary performing arts destination.

Beethoven String Quartets

Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center | Feb. 7 through 18, Alice Tully Hall

Here’s a wonderful chance to familiarize yourself with the genius of Ludwig van Beethoven, courtesy of a series of concerts presented by the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. Delve into the German maestro’s catalogue of string quartets, played in the order they were composed between 1798 and 1826. Come to each concert to appreciate the incredible groundbreaking leaps in imagination and technique Beethoven made from composition to composition, or just treat yourself to a one-off night of immortal music, impeccably performed by the Danish String Quartet.

Dianne Reeves

Feb. 14 and 15 | Rose Theater

Could there be a more romantic way to mark Valentine’s Day than spending it in the company of jazz vocalist Dianne Reeves? The New York Times describes her as “The most admired jazz diva since Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald, and Billie Holiday.” Indeed, her talent for melting hearts with soulful vocals and hypnotizing storytelling is practically unsurpassed. Score a pair of tickets to this show and your partner will still be talking about it next Valentine’s Day.

“Cosi Fan Tutte”

Feb. 15 through March 14 | Metropolitan Opera House

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s “fiancée swapping” opera arrives at the Metropolitan Opera House, with a distinctly NYC twist. Phelim McDermott’s staging brings the action to the raucous boardwalks of Coney Island — with a backdrop of big dippers and big wheels to go with the big voices of soprano Nicole Car, mezzo-soprano Serena Malfi, tenor Ben Bliss, and bass-baritone Luca Pisaroni. This is a unique way to revel in a European opera classic, with all the fun of the fair.

Zeshan B

March 11 through 20 | Bruno Walter Auditorium

So accomplished are Zeshan B’s Indo-Pakistani renditions of soul classics, urban love songs, Memphis blues, and civil-rights anthems, that he was invited to perform at the White House at the request of President Barack Obama. Though this incredible performer sings in a range of languages — from Urdu to Punjabi to English — his songs of heartache, injustice, and loss resonate universally. This series of six shows at Bruno Walter Auditorium is targeted at a younger audience and makes for the ideal family outing.

Become part of an engaged community in one of the city’s most well-rounded neighborhoods on the Upper West Side by viewing the current availabilities of Algin’s no-fee luxury rentals.

Known for theater, picnics, and vigorous recreation during the summer months, Central Park changes with the first snowfall into a picturesque land of skating rinks and snowshoe trails. As the transformation moves across the park like frost up a windowpane, New Yorkers recall childhood snowball fights and skating expeditions and hope to recapture the joy of friends and family gatherings in the seasonal cold. Luxury no-fee residences in nearby buildings—like ARO or The Pearl—make for the perfect home base from which residents can explore this wintry landscape, safe in the knowledge that they can quickly retreat for a mug of cocoa and a blast of central heating to warm up their frosty fingertips. 

Central Park features a pair of skating rinks, making ample space for New Yorkers whose preferred winter recreation takes place on the ice. In fact, New Yorkers have been skating in Central Park for more than 150 years, nearly the park’s entire history, although for the first century, daring skaters took to the frozen tops of ponds and lakes instead of gliding around dedicated rinks. Since 1950, Wollman Rink in the park’s south section—open late until 11 pm on Fridays and Saturdays through early April—has served as the city’s premier outdoor ice skating rink, as well as one of the best hot cocoa dispensers around. The north section of the park is home to the Lasker Rink, which was originally built in 1966 and was almost shuttered in the 1980s before being rehabilitated by a New York developer and turned into the modern, LEED-certified rink we know and love today. The holiday hours for Lasker Rink are extended until 11 pm on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays leading up to the New Year.

More serious winter warriors will enjoy the vast tracts of land around Sheep Meadow, where the terrain is perfect for strapping on a pair of cross-country skis and setting off through the trees to explore the familiar park now blanketed in six inches or more of snow. The less athletic among us may prefer to traverse the same ground on snowshoes, another Central Park tradition. One destination perfect for winter exploration is the Arthur Ross Pinetum, a stand of 17 coniferous species that creates a tiny evergreen forest just north of the Great Lawn. Especially during the winter months, this four-acre forest is a slice of another world, bringing trees from around the world into concert to create a place where time seems to stand still. 

Grab a pair of snowshoes, skates, or a travel mug of coffee or tea and head over to Central Park from your luxury rental apartment to make some winter memories.

Penthouses, by nature, offer the best views of any high-rise. In Penthouse 65A, atop ARO’s no-fee luxury apartment rentals in Manhattan, views of Midtown West, the Hudson River, and Central Park are certainly front and center, acting as a dramatic backdrop to world-class design. Curved glass walls, vaulted ceilings, oak floors, and a floor plan with a natural flow heighten the already sky-high views and make this luxury penthouse a rare find.

This penthouse apartment has not just one terrace, not two, not even three, but four private terraces—a fact that gets a lot of attention. The largest terrace, a long balcony just off the living and dining area, feels like a natural space for communal activities, such as brunching alfresco or watching the sunset over cocktails with friends. A more private terrace juts out from the corner of the master bedroom, offering views in both directions and providing a space for personal moments, like taking in the scale of the glittering city before you retire for the night or doing some morning stretches before you and the city are fully awake. On the upper level, two other terraces open up from the media room and bar, perfect for entertaining guests.

If the terraces are the shining stars of the penthouse, the unsung hero may be its thoughtful and highly livable floor plan. The kitchen, dining area, and living room flow together in an open, airy layout, leaving no corners untouched by the flood of natural light coming in through the windows. Even when you’re preparing an epic charcuterie board at the kitchen island and reaching for a bottle of wine from your private storage, you’re submerged in sky, water, and light. A long interior hall connects the four bedrooms so that each has its own view—and its own bathroom—and there’s no shortage of private space drenched in natural light. Even the grand staircase, which leads to the media room and bar, is wrapped in sweeping views.

These views, of course, include ARO’s neighborhood: Midtown West. The district is a hub of museums, concert halls, lush parks, fine dining, and, of course, shopping. The holidays are quickly approaching, which means people are seeking out the perfect gifts for their loved ones. For some, that means a long trek across the city, and for others, it’s easier to stay home and shop online. But residents of the no-fee NYC apartments at ARO are just a five-minute walk from an exciting new retail experience: the Nordstrom Flagship site on 57^th and Broadway. The store, encased in a glittering, reflective glass facade, is seven stories of high-end clothing, shoes, accessories, and home and beauty products, along with a collection of cafes, bars, and restaurants ready to fuel your shopping spree. The best part? They’ll wrap your gifts for you, so you can spend more time celebrating with your loved ones, back at the penthouse.

Inquire today about this high-floor penthouse home at ARO by calling us at (212) 213-1727.

With so much of the holiday pop-up action positioned near Algin’s no-fee apartment rentals in NYC, you can find fun, cheer, and all the best gifts with ease. Follow us on a brief tour of some of our favorite shopping destinations this season. The Columbus Circle Holiday Market is one of the most beautiful places for holiday shopping. The Grand Central Holiday Fair features exciting up-and-coming vendors from all the boroughs of New York City. And the Union Square Holiday Market offers a wide range of handmade gifts in an alfresco setting, full of warm cider and holiday energy!

Columbus Circle Holiday Market

Internationally known, the Columbus Circle Holiday Market encompasses the full beauty and splendor of the holiday season. Situated at 59^th Street and Central Park West, the market is set against the natural majesty of Central Park: a fitting frame for possibly the most elegant market of its kind in the entire city. Get lost in stall after stall along aisle after aisle of jewelry, unique art, scrumptious local food, and home goods of all types. The market runs from December 4^th through the 24^th and is open Monday through Saturday from 10 am to 8 pm and on Sundays from 10 am to 7 pm. Stop by, and you’ll quickly realize that, in its 15^th year, it’s still getting better and better.

Grand Central Holiday Fair

Equally impressive in its presentation, though set in an utterly different environment, is the Grand Central Holiday Fair. One of the longest-running indoor holiday fairs in NYC, it spans more than half of the historic Vanderbilt Hall at Grand Central. For six weeks, fair-goers can snag unique clothing, toys, artwork, and much more from 40-plus vendors selling merchandise of all types and at all price points. However, what they all have in common is that there’s a focus on delivering American-made and handcrafted items. You’ll also find that many of the materials are locally sourced and that many of the businesses maintain a socially conscious model in their practices—the Holiday Fair Committee devotes the year to finding just this type of vendor. The fair runs from November 18^th through December 24^th, Monday through Friday from 10 am to 8 pm, Saturdays from 10 am to 7 pm, and Sundays from 11 am to 6 pm. Shop for a friend or a family member, but don’t be surprised if you take home more than one special gift for yourself this holiday season. 

Union Square Holiday Market

Host to festivals and markets throughout the year, it’s no surprise that Union Square is the location for a Holiday Market by Urbanspace that is renowned as “a must-visit destination for unique gifts created by local craftsmen and artists.” Millions of people will sojourn to the park not only for this market’s eclectic mix of goods for purchase but also for the range of experiences and activities. Come out for Little Brooklyn and Urbanspace Provisions. Visit the Warming Station and Lounge to regroup or take the little ones to the Kid’s Arts Studio. Add to that their live music, and you’ve quite possibly found the most innovative holiday market in the entire region. The market launches on November 21^st and runs through December 24^th. Swing by Monday through Friday from 11 am to 8 pm, Saturdays from 10 am to 8 pm, and Sundays from 11 am to 7 pm. If you think you’ve seen it all in the city, think again. This market is one-of-a-kind.

Holiday shopping can be exciting again—especially when it’s a bit off the beaten path and full of community spirit but still close to home. Convenient to Algin’s no-fee apartments in Manhattan, these three holiday market favorites also have convenient hours that let you drop by on the weekends or even after work to browse and explore at your leisure. Come by and celebrate the holidays anew.

Hell’s Kitchen, a tree-lined and restaurant-filled neighborhood, is an almost heavenly locale for its lucky locals, and although well-situated no-fee rental apartments in Manhattan are hard to come by, Algin Management offers several within the boundaries of this neighborhood. While it thrives on its proximity to the Theater District to its east, the Hudson River to its west, and Lincoln Square and Central Park to its north, Hell’s Kitchen is not defined by this proximity. As a happening neighborhood that encompasses parts of Hudson Yards and Hudson River Park—and is also a respite from many of the nearby crowds—it delivers its own brand of New York City magic.

Packed with some of the city’s best culture, cuisine, and couture, the area abounds with activities that will please everyone from the maverick millennials who love a short walk to their Midtown offices to the music and drama lovers who are literally down the street from some of the best live theater in the world. Amid the day-to-day and extraordinary urban moments, there are aspects of this neighborhood that will have you exploring for a lifetime. Let’s take a look around.

Breakfast, lunch, or dinner, you’re sure to find endless food options that will cause even your most epicurean of friends to roll up their sleeves and dig into gourmet delights from around the world. While the unofficial meal of Hell’s Kitchen has got to be brunch—you’ll see the neighborhood’s eclectic denizens gathering at seemingly every tasty spot during the weekend—there’s so much more to the area’s food scene, which, among other things, features Restaurant Row, a stretch of 29 fabulous restaurants on 46th Street between Eighth and Ninth Avenues, with a mix of dining experiences you’d be hard-pressed to find anywhere else in the world. Marseille on Ninth Avenue is a particular local favorite that not only takes its name from the rustic French port city but its culinary influences too. Feast on a brunch of hearty fresh-from-the-ocean clams, lobster, and shrimp or stick to traditional items like veggie-filled omelets or a classic eggs Benedict.

Burn off those brunch calories with a walk to Time Warner Center in Columbus Circle, where fashionistas, makeup gurus, and general retail explorers can find almost anything they’re looking for in this shopping mecca on the Hell’s Kitchen border. Whether you’d like a simple blazer from J. Crew or a luxe cashmere statement sweater from Eileen Fisher, you’ll find it here. Stop by Time Warner Center’s Sephora to try on and buy your favorite fragrance or makeup. There’s no need to run around town when this shopping center has everything you need—not to mention a spectacular view of Central Park.

It’s hard to ignore the fact that Broadway plays are just a few streets away, but Hell’s Kitchen’s exciting off-Broadway theater scene—with venues as diverse as Pershing Square Signature Theater, Playwrights Horizons, New World Stages, and the Theatre at St. Clements (church), to name just a few—does not always get the attention it deserves. The Irish Arts Center is another gem that has a robust calendar of performances and events near the northwest corner of the neighborhood. And, of course, just a little further north of Hell’s Kitchen is a world cultural institution: Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, the home to the Metropolitan Opera, the New York City Ballet, the New York Philharmonic, and almost 30 other institutions and facilities, both indoors and alfresco, as well as an iconic fountain whose daily displays have provided many an Instagram photo.

So, in Hell’s Kitchen style, reserve your dinner, buy your most fashionable outfit, get your tickets, take a stroll (and some pictures), and, by all means, find the time to finalize a lease for one of Algin’s no-fee rentals in this beautiful and ultraconvenient part of New York City.

Just down the street from Algin Management’s no-fee apartment rentals on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, you’ll discover a grand assortment of one-of-a-kind retailers with seemingly endless offerings for your wardrobe and home. Here are some of Algin’s favorite boutiques and shops in one of the city’s most desirable neighborhoods. 

After 30 years of designing clothes for the likes of David Bowie, Yoko Ono, Helena Bonham Carter and Thom Yorke, what does one do next? For agnès b, the answer is simple: you keep creating. Her tradition of understated French cool continues with simple tailoring, clean lines, and an effortless style. Unencumbered by “fashion” she’s more interested in design, dabbling in art and film, and musing about within those experiences through clothing that’s classic but forever forward looking. And it doesn’t just stop at men’s and women’s pieces. Agnes b also has something for children and babies, all cut to signature shapes and colors that reflect the brand while still expressing the exuberance of the youth who wear the clothes. A visit to the store will quickly show you, but for a deeper exploration, pick up one of the many style books you’ll find there to discover that what you wear isn’t simply an expression of your tastes, but also an extension of the self.    

Pachute, the Hebrew word for “simple,” is both the name of a wonderfully compact boutique on the Upper East Side and the guiding principle behind the vision of its founder. Setting out to “carry designs that awaken” and offering “limited editions and small selections of excellently-made pieces that make sense,” the shop delivers with goods that cater to “simple” needs, albeit with the subtle complexity that such items require. The suede boots in all the right shades of grey and brown are all perfectly textured: not too broken-in to eliminate them from your workday wardrobe but not so new as to overdress your favorite jeans on a weekend-day-out. The jewelry is understated, though bold, and of an heirloom quality that lends it to pairing with outfits throughout your closet.

For an equally inspired selection of high-end women’s clothing and jewelry, plus a wonderful selection of…well, everything else, do take some time to visit Blue Tree. With an eclectic collection of fashion, fragrances, home items, art, candles, books, and even vintage LPs, the shop boasts that no rules apply, save one, when it comes to stocking the shelves: the vision of founder Phoebe Cates Kline (yes, that Phoebe Cates) and her desire “to have it be like a general store but according to me.” Blue Tree succeeds marvelously in that vision, building a reputation for surprise and reinvention in its inventory that makes each visit a new adventure. It’s what has enabled the store to amass a following that goes far beyond the Upper East Side. Ms. Cates Kline’s favorite things also include a few odds and ends for men, kids, and babies.

Of course, getting around to all these places in a city like NYC is best done on foot. Do so in style with just the right pair of boots or shoes from Aquazzura. The very definition of what we expect from fine Italian footwear, Aquazzura’s designs are as comfortable as they are chic, and the expert craftsmanship means that they’ll be so for a long time to come. Just ask any number of trendsetters and influencers who sport Aquazzura footwear at every turn, including Jennifer Lawrence, Beyoncé, and Amal Clooney. Stop by, and you’ll be sure to find the perfect boots, pumps, or even sneakers.

Algin Management’s no-fee apartment rentals in NYC bring you close to some of Manhattan’s best shopping. Find a gift to dazzle a friend or discover a new look to transform yourself, just blocks from home. Then return again and again for a never-ending rotation of new and fascinating treasures. Your neighborhood has it all.

While the city has transformed around them ten times over, Greenwich Village’s jazz clubs never miss a beat, continuing a tradition of hosting historic performers like John Coltrane, Sarah Vaughan, and the Grove Street Stompers. The following venues are some of the best, and we recommend that you make them part of your luxury routine when you live at one of Algin’s luxury no-fee Manhattan rental apartments. 

Village Vanguard | 178 7th Avenue South

You’ll be seeing red—literally—at this legendary establishment. When you descend the steep staircase into the small room with the crimson-hued stage, you’ll be sharing an experience very similar to the one John Coltrane had when he recorded his famous 1961 sets there. Not much has changed since the 1930s when the Vanguard became a must-visit haunt for music lovers: the acoustics are perfect. Many New York icons have performed here, including comedian Lenny Bruce and a young Barbra Streisand. It’s strictly a jazz venue now, and although the performances are innovative, you’ll recognize a lot of the names. Recent performances include the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra and Coltrane’s saxophonist son, Ravi. It’s a can’t-miss for jazz lovers and anyone looking for a memorable night out. 

Blue Note | 131 West 3rd Street 

Since it opened, the Blue Note has been a friend to jazz musicians and fans alike. The venue charmed performers like Sarah Vaughan, Tito Puente, and Dizzy Gillespie back to the stage long after they’d given up performing in most clubs, and it continues to draw the best veteran and up-and-coming players. Trumpeter Chris Botti returns for his 15th residency this winter, and, if you stop by on Mondays, you might catch a glimpse of a future star of jazz, hip-hop, soul, funk, or R&B. They have shows every night of the week at 8 pm and 10:30 pm, a late-night show on Fridays and Saturdays, and brunch performances on Sundays. If you’re lucky, you’ll be present for a surprise performance; celebrities such as Stevie Wonder, Tony Bennett, and Liza Minnelli have been called from the audience to the stage in the past, and who knows who will be there in the audience with you? 

Arthur’s Tavern | 57 Grove Street

You’re sure to be packed tight inside this classic Downtown bar, but it’s worth it to hear the excellent blues, jazz, and Dixieland bands play beneath a canopy of holiday lights. Known as the “Home of the Bird,” Arthur’s was once a favorite of Charlie Bird and has been serving exciting performances to music aficionados since 1937. You’ll find all kinds of musical acts here, but on Mondays, guests are treated to a very special performance. For 70 years, the Grove Street Stompers’ Dixieland jazz has been delighting listeners. Though some of the players have changed, the band hasn’t missed a performance since 1959. And you won’t want to miss one either.

Not only is Greenwich Village rich with musical history, it is home to tree-lined streets, cutting-edge restaurants, chic, millennial-focused shops, and an abundance of locally owned markets.

Located on Manhattan’s historic Upper East Side, The Pearl’s no-fee rentals combine modern design elements with classic finishes to create a living space that celebrates New York City’s timeless chic. The 23-story tower, located between 1st Avenue and York Avenue on 66th Street, presents an elegant base with a sleek, glassy facade and invites residents into its stunning marble-clad lobby, where a 24-hour concierge is on-hand to help with whatever task residents need accomplished. 

Upstairs, these spacious homes feature floor-to-ceiling windows with exquisite East River and intimate skyline views as well as gorgeous finishes and top-of-the-line appliances and fixtures, including baths clad in Crema Marfil marble and inspired by luxury spas. Residents also have access to The Pearl’s state-of-the-art fitness center, where they can follow their workout routines without stepping foot outside their building. Resting atop The Pearl is PHB, a three-bedroom penthouse that defines Upper East Side luxury. This duplex includes multiple private terraces and a spacious living area centered around the gourmet kitchen.

Living at The Pearl is about more than the building, though. The Upper East Side is a quiet slice of Manhattan, where tree-lined streets are cut by wide avenues lined with fine dining and comfort food. Just around the corner, residents will find the ever-popular Bagelworks, where lines will often snake out the front door, while just a few blocks south, Sushi Seki provides the best omakase meal around. Residents seeking something a little more casual will love Maya, the neighborhood taqueria that also offers the neighborhood’s best bottomless brunch. Foodies willing to head a little further afield will love the Upper East Side’s slate of classic eateries, including famous Italian spot Tony’s Di Napoli, a family-friendly UES staple since 1959, and Ravagh Persian Grill on 1st Avenue, which combines New York’s penchant for world-class Middle Eastern cuisine with a small plates philosophy that keeps regulars coming back for more.

Nestled in the heart of the Upper East Side, The Pearl is across the street from P.S. 183, a highly ranked school that embraces a community-focused educational philosophy; among other activities, it hosts a weekly flea market that has been a neighborhood staple for two decades. Nearby St. Catherine’s Park offers a shady spot to enjoy a coffee or spend some time with the family at the playground, while Central Park is just a few blocks west. Meanwhile, joggers will love how close their new home is to the East River Greenway along the FDR. Residents also have convenient access to the nearby F/Q/6 subway lines, all of which are central arteries that carry New Yorkers around Manhattan and the outer boroughs. 

So, what are you waiting for? Head over to The Pearl’s website to see these amazing homes for yourself!

When New Yorkers celebrate, they’re often drawn to the classy bars and authentic restaurants found in Midtown West. The area, which encompasses classic neighborhoods, including Hell’s Kitchen, represents the very pinnacle of Manhattan living, and it’s no wonder that it’s a favorite for anniversaries and important milestones. Keep reading for a guide to taking that special someone out for an unforgettable evening.

At Algin Management, the family-owned business with half a century of experience matching prospective buyers with no-fee rental apartments in great NYC neighborhoods, we know how to help you have a sensational time as you navigate Midtown West.

It may seem quaint, but a bouquet of flowers or a box of bonbons is a surefire way to start your special evening right. Hell’s Kitchen staple Flowers by Richard is your one-stop shop for all your floral needs. From a classic dozen red roses to themed bouquets like the yellow Lemon Drop Roses and delicate Jade Green Roses, Flowers by Richard is sure to have the perfect arrangement. If your lover has a sweet tooth, stop by La Maison Du Chocolat by Columbus Circle and pick up a box of rich dark chocolate or creamy truffles.

Columbus Circle is also home to Robert, the unparalleled restaurant atop the Museum of Arts and Design. There’s no better spot in Midtown West to mark an occasion than this chic dining room, decorated with bright modern furniture and looking out on the green canopy of Central Park and the iconic skyline along the park’s western edge. Enjoy a round of signature cocktails before diving into the menu by Chef Gonzalo Colin, who has crafted a range of dishes that span the globe. Choice ingredients like Kobe beef and Maine lobster form the heart of these elegant meals, all backed up by a formidable wine list.

When the dessert plates are cleared and the night seems poised to end, head around the corner to The Aviary for one last glimpse at the skyline. This outpost of the famous Chicago venue features small plates and creative cocktails in a lively setting, making for an exciting nightcap sure to put a memorable aura on the intimate evening.

So, you’re a budding home chef looking to take your culinary pursuits to the next level. You yearn to craft Instagram-worthy dishes that not only please the palates of your guests but look like refined pieces of art. While perusing Algin Management’s available no-fee luxury rentals in NYC, you realize that the kitchen is perhaps the most important aspect of a residence for you. 

Cooking is a pursuit that is dependent upon the tools of the chef. While there may be ways to get the best out of low-quality kitchenware, some essentials are incredibly important if you want to take your meals to the next level.

There may be no other piece of kitchenware more important than one’s pans. And again, as with the knives, the market is flooded with options. We highly recommend Tramontina’s Professional Restaurant Fry Pan. It is billed as a pan made for a professional kitchen and adapted to be used at home, and that’s what it feels like. Its cast stainless-steel handle and heavy gauge aluminum construction make it feel incredibly solid without weighing a ton. It can be used on all stovetops, comes with a lifetime warranty, and is truly nonstick, which makes clean-up easier.

Cooking nearly always involves cutting of some sort, so having a good set of knives is vital. There are many kitchen knife sets on the market, but we’re partial to the Calphalon Classic Self-Sharpening 6-Piece Cutlery Set. The set includes a paring knife, a Santoku knife, a utility knife, a chef’s knife, and kitchen shears. They are all made from fully forged, high-carbon German steel. What truly makes this set extraordinary, however, are the built-in knife sharpeners. The knife block—which utilizes their patented SharpIN technology—has a sharpener for every blade. If you cook often, your knives will inevitably start to become dull. Having to take out a sharpener is another step in preparing your dish. With this set, the sharpener is right there. Run the knives in and out a few times, and they’re ready to go.

If you’re going to be braising, roasting, or making soups, stews, and casseroles—if you’re going to be slow cooking at all—you need a Dutch oven. But not all Dutch ovens are created equal—not by a long shot. Le Creuset’s Dutch Oven is one of the most well-known brands, and for good reason. Le Creuset has been making Dutch ovens for just under a century. They know what they’re doing. This cast-iron beauty can do it all. It distributes heat slowly and evenly, ensuring that everything inside the pot coalesces just the way it should.

Now that you have the proper tools for a future that is filled with good food, Algin Management can help you find a new home (and kitchen) where you can create and host many feasts to come.

When it comes to making no-fee apartments in NYC feel like home, there’s a lot to consider. What kind of lighting does your space need? How should you arrange your furniture? Where is the perfect place to hang that beloved work of art? Few design elements, however, can multitask like the humble houseplant. Perennially underrated, a houseplant can purify the air, regulate humidity, and boost your mood — all while looking fresh and lovely. This may be why houseplants have enjoyed a surge in popularity, especially among Millennials. But indoor greenery has never really gone out of style. Whether you’re moving into a brand-new space or just want to revitalize and rejuvenate your home, indoor plants are a breath of fresh air — literally.

Clean air is a cause that most people can get behind, but for some, the idea of nurturing a living plant can be a little intimidating. But for those lacking a green thumb, there are plenty of low-maintenance, virtually indestructible plants — the kind that can withstand whatever hardships you may inadvertently impose upon them. Aloe, for example, can tolerate being watered every two to three weeks, and the snake plant “thrives on being ignored,” according to HGTV. The hardy pothos plant is an excellent choice for first-timers. When it needs water, it will begin to visibly droop, basically telling you, “I’m thirsty!” Once drenched, it will perk back up again.

Different plants have different needs, based on the climate found in their native environment. Tropical plants will crave humidity and warmth, while desert plants prefer dry, arid conditions. The key to nurturing a plant is taking these conditions and applying them to the three major elements a plant depends upon for life: soil, light, and water. Make sure the soil you use is composed correctly — depending on your plant, you may need to add sand, peat, or perlite. For light, refer to the guidelines that came with your plant, or hop online and do a little research. But it is also important to be responsive to the signals your plant gives. If the leaves begin to look singed around the edges, your plant may be receiving too much direct sun. Try moving it to a location in your apartment that offers bright, indirect light, and see how it fares there. Water may be the trickiest component of all. Some plants will drown or rot in an abundance of water, while others will quickly wither without enough of it. Guidance from your local nursery can help you perfect your watering schedule.

It may take a little work to get your indoor garden going, but the innumerable benefits of indoor foliage are worth the effort. Before you know it, your no-fee apartments in Manhattan will feel like a verdant paradise.

Moving to New York City is a rush like no other. It’s one of those places, like Venice or the Giza pyramid complex, that inspires dreams and exceeds expectations. And so, when you move to the city into an Algin Management no-fee apartment in Manhattan, the question is not if you will meet new people and discover new things, but, with so many avenues for meeting life-changing friends and colleagues, and finding new wonders to explore, the question is: Where should you begin?

The key is to start with what you love. Are you an art buff, or someone who is thinking of becoming an art collector? New York is the art capital of the world — once you begin to tap into the network of artists and art institutions here, you will be astonished at how much there is to explore. Museums like The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Guggenheim Museum have such a wealth of programming that they are like their own miniature art empires amidst the bustling streets.

If you have more specific interests, be sure to check out Meetup, offering groups to join with people who have similar interests. From photography workshops to avid hikers, the groups are endless. If you can’t find one that fits you, try starting your own!

Another great way to meet people and build a community in NYC is to join a gym, yoga studio, or run club. You’ll meet people from your neighborhood while getting in the best shape of your life. The Central Park Track Club is one of the foremost running clubs in the city, and their “track,” most of the time, is in Central Park (as you might have guessed). This is an ideal way to connect with nature in the city and to meet other serious runners. Another excellent place to get your double dose of friendly faces and an outstanding workout is Orangetheory Fitness, a fitness club whose entire ethos is based on building community and on recognizing the enormous benefit of having personal training coaches overseeing your entire workout plan. Or try CorePower Yoga for equal parts sweat-inducing workout and mindfulness. You’re going to need both with what will soon be your exhilarating and ever-expanding schedule.

If there’s one thing New Yorkers have in common, it’s that they love living in the city. And yet, despite the daily magic of life in no-fee apartments in NYC, even the most seasoned urbanite needs an escape now and then. Luckily, there are plenty of natural wonders within a few hours of the city that make for a refreshing weekend away. So, when the concrete jungle overwhelms, you can just pack a bag and go. Here are a few of our favorite destinations for a quick getaway, no matter the season.

The Hamptons, Long Island, N.Y.

The Hamptons is one of the quintessential New York seaside getaways, especially during the warmer seasons. Worth a visit for endless components – there are the long stretches of pristine white sand, the hulking dunes, and the uninterrupted views of the deep-blue Atlantic Ocean, for starters. If you want to stray from the beaten path, check out Two Mile Hollow Beach, a low-key, picturesque spot with vibes that tend toward the bohemian.

Asbury Park, N.J.

If your favorite part of going to the beach is strolling the boardwalk, perusing the seaside shops, and enjoying fresh seafood, Asbury Park might just be the place for you. The promenade has a distinctive, old-school feel; it’s one of the few remaining beach towns still full of arcades, theaters, vintage clothing boutiques, and infamous venues like The Stone Pony, where Bruce Springsteen played in his early days. Travel & Leisure recently declared Asbury Park “the coolest place on the Jersey shore,” but we’ll let you decide for yourself.

Shelter Island, Long Island, N.Y.

Nature lovers will find much to love at Shelter Island, the bucolic Long Island oasis. While Shelter Island has enjoyed renewed popularity in recent years, it remains a natural and quiet getaway, thanks to Mashomack Preserve. The preserve, a swath of land making up about a third of the island, covers “2,039 acres of interlacing tidal creeks, mature oak woodlands, fields, and freshwater marshes,” according to The Nature Conservancy. To explore it, take a stroll on one of the loops of the nine-mile-long Mashomack Preserve Trail, where you’ll see plenty of fascinating flora and fauna and get a healing dose of salt air.

Phoenicia, N.Y.

Perhaps your getaway inclinations pull you upward, toward the mountains. In that case, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a mountain escape with as many recreational opportunities as Phoenicia, N.Y. Set deep in the Catskill Mountains, Phoenicia is surrounded on all sides by natural playgrounds. You can head down Esopus Creek on an inner tube, hike to the dramatic, two-tiered Kaaterskill Falls, or take in miles of fall foliage from Giant Ledge. Afterward, stroll historic downtown Phoenicia, where you can shop for antiques or try the pan-fried trout alongside the locals at the famous Phoenicia Diner.

As your summer getaways come to an end, you can look forward to coming home to your homey apartment in the city. Explore our availabilities today and find your next home in classic New York.

Searching for a no-fee apartment in NYC can be an arduous task. It’s a highly competitive market; big decisions often must be made in minutes or your ideal apartment could slip away. But worry not, ambitious New Yorkers, we’re here to tell you that you can rise above the chaos and find your dream home — it is possible. Here’s how to do it.

Start Your Search Early (But Not Too Early)

This is always tricky in New York. You certainly don’t want to start too late, because the pressure of hurrying the process could cause you to make a rash decision — landing you in a less-than-ideal situation. Most NYC apartments are listed 30 days in advance, and some are 60, but it’s rare to find time frames longer than that. So, you can start two months before your moving date, but make sure to only search for apartments that are available for rent two months out. The last thing you want is to find a wonderful place and then discover that it’s up for rent in a month. Paying rent twice is far from ideal. We’d recommend starting anywhere from 30 to 50 days out. That way, you can get a good feel for the market and are more likely find something you really want.

Go in With a Plan

This is a must. Whether moving on your own, or with a partner or friend, make sure you know what you want in a residence. Sit down and make a wish list, and then decide which things on your list you can live without — and which things you can’t. When you search, aim high, but don’t be unwilling to compromise. If you’re looking for a two-bedroom with a roof deck, an eat-in kitchen, a parking space, natural light, and an in-unit washer/dryer, and you find a place that has everything but the roof deck, it might be time to pounce. Go in knowing which aspects of your future home are negotiable and which are carved in stone — it will make the whole experience far less stressful.

Understand Your Credit Score

Many listings will post a credit score or range that is needed to rent a residence. It’s important to know where you stand in this particular area to avoid surprises. Sites like Credit Karma offer free credit checks, and since they’re soft inquiries, checking the score will not impact your credit. If you find your credit score is too low for many apartments you desire, you may be able to have a guarantor co-sign for you. Not all buildings allow guarantors, but many do.

Be Ready to Act

Speaking of pouncing, being ready to act when your ideal place pops up is vitally important. You may only have a window of 30 minutes to lock down an apartment before it’s gone. Go in ready to rent, primed to get the ball rolling, or you might be left in the dust.

One way you can easily find a new NYC no-fee apartment is by exploring our availabilities today to jump on your new home in classic New York.

Regardless of the mode of transport, nobody likes commuting — it’s a hassle. Fortunately, many companies are now allowing their employees to work remotely, which means those frustrating, stressful trips into the office are a thing of the past. However, a laptop and a chair do not a home office make. To be able to effectively and efficiently work from home, you need a space that is designed for productivity.

Find a Space

The first thing to consider is where you are going to set up your workspace. You don’t need a lot of space for a home office, but you don’t want to be crushed into a closet, either. There are many no-fee apartments in Manhattan that offer layouts with half-bedrooms. Those layouts work quite well for a home office. Remember that it’s a good idea for your work area to be separate from the main living area of your home. Keep your living space for living and your working space for working — the separation will help you maintain regular hours and enhance productivity.

Let There Be Light

The lighting in your home office is vital. It’s pretty simple really: If your lighting is off, you will constantly be straining your eyes to see your work. This leads to a lack of focus. Also, inadequate lighting can zap the energy right out of you, and good lighting can do just the opposite. It’s wise to avoid harsh overhead lights and go with a floor lamp accented by a nice desk lamp. And always utilize natural light as much as possible. Some people say you shouldn’t have your desk facing a window, but we disagree — we’re all for it. Natural light is invigorating. Use it.

The Desk — The Epicenter of the Home Office

In most home offices, the desk is the centerpiece and the most important furniture purchase you’ll make when designing your workspace. If there’s any place to splurge a bit, this is it. Your desk needs to be functional and aesthetically pleasing or you won’t want to work there. Think of it this way: You will be spending a significant amount of time at this desk — you should love it. Moreover, we recommend purchasing a model that converts to a standing desk. Sitting all day is bad for your back, and having the option to stand and work helps break up the monotony. If you need fresh air, be sure to get out and enjoy a serene walk around your neighborhood, no matter where you live – whether it be Gramercy, Murray Hill, or the Upper East or West Side – a clear mind gets the job done.

The Importance of Comfort

This part is simple: Buy a nice chair. Along with the desk, this is the place to spend your money. Even if you purchase a convertible, standing desk, you will still spend hours seated, and you’re going to want to be comfortable. The last thing you need is for your home office to be an uncomfortable, unwelcoming place that makes you feel miserable.

Distractions and Design

Don’t put a television in your home office. Just don’t do it. It’s tempting, but remember: This is a work space. Having a television in your home office will only serve to distract you from your work. And again — we can’t stress this enough — the key to being productive when working from home is to create an office space that is separated from living space, both physically and in terms of what you do there. It’s also wise to keep the design cohesive. If you’re going modern, stick with that the whole way through. If you’re going traditional, the same goes. Cohesion will help the space feel like a separate, distinct entity. This is your chance to build everything to your exact specifications. So, shoot for the moon.

Hard though it is to believe, Gramercy Park started out life as little more than a swamp. Indeed, its name is thought to derive from the Dutch for “crooked little swamp.” And how it has bloomed! The area is now one of NYC’s greenest, most desirable neighborhoods; people will do just about anything to live in a no-fee rental here. Read on, as we delve into Gramercy Park’s history, and discover how it flourished into prestige — starting with the touch of one man.

 

Samuel B. Ruggles: The Man Who Made Gramercy Park

They say that one million horse carts of earth were shifted when developer Samuel B. Ruggles oversaw the transformation of Gramercy Square in the early 1830s. Perhaps he’d gotten the idea to create an urban haven from observing the model of Hudson Square — it’s the only private square in New York City older than Gramercy Park. At any rate, 66 moneyed New Yorkers were lucky enough to purchase a parcel of the reclaimed land. And so, the area’s prestige was born. Since then, of course, new streets, churches, apartments, hotels, and bars have sprung up, burgeoning into the wider area of the current Gramercy Park neighborhood. But be sure to visit the flagstone at the west of the original gated park, which quietly remembers this area’s savvy founder.

 

Famous Gramercy Park Residents

As you might imagine, a neighborhood as appealing as Gramercy Park boasts its fair share of celebrity locals. Shakespearean actor Edwin Booth presides over Gramercy Park in statue form — perhaps keeping an eye on The Players, the club he founded in 1888. A young Preston Sturges — the man who would go on to become one of the great filmmakers of his time — stayed at The Hotel Irving. (His mother stayed uptown at the Ritz-Carlton!) Among the contemporary residents of the area are “Kill Bill” lead Uma Thurman, “The Tonight Show” host and funnyman Jimmy Fallon, singer-songwriter Rufus Wainwright, and one of Hollywood’s true superstars, Julia Roberts. Have a no-fee apartment here, and, rest assured, you’ll be in good company.

 

Explore Historical Gramercy

Today’s Gramercy Park throbs with all the vibrancy of modern-day NYC — and has all the modern conveniences, to boot. Yet, throughout the neighborhood, you can still sense the history. Stroll the leafy streets, and find 19th century brownstones rubbing shoulders with former carriage houses. Marvel at the Gothic Revival Calvary Church, known for its charitable work in the community. Catch a show at Gramercy Theatre, a former cinema turned decadent music and comedy venue. When you’ve tired yourself out, call in at Pete’s Tavern — one of the oldest drinking establishments in the city — for a cold beer. The celebrated watering hole has been featured in everything from “Seinfeld” to “Sex and the City.” Of course, if you require some more upmarket refreshment, you can always order a whiskey at The Players. Provided they accept you as a member, of course.

If there’s one thing Marie Kondo has showed us with her “spark joy” revolution, it’s that organizing your home is a creative act. When you live in an Algin Management no-fee rental in New York City, you are starting with the perfectly primed canvas to strike that balance between minimalist practicality and the pleasure of filling your home with the things you love. Those two ideas, however, are not mutually exclusive — streamlining your home is actually a way of highlighting what has meaning and eliminating what is just taking up space.

You’ll need to do some strategic shopping to find the organizational equipment to set up a home for maximum comfort and efficiency. A tall plant can anchor a room with a calm and verdant presence when its backdrop is a pristine white wall instead of a heap of clutter; a hamper can be an art object; and a desk organizer can provide a vintage accent that harkens back to the days of fountain pens and handwritten letters. Living in New York means having the most design-savvy versions of what sorts and holds your best-loved stuff. And part of the fun is discovering how aesthetically pleasing staying organized can be.

For organizing the bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen, it’s hard to imagine living in a no-fee New York apartment and NOT paying a visit or two to The Container Store. With their fabric hanging shelves and Elfa shelving system, this is a place where you can become an organizational strategist and work out configurations for creating and saving space inside every closet and drawer.

For keeping your apartment spotless, there is nothing more helpful than a set of cleaning tools whose thoughtful design makes them as easy to use as they are to store. At Muji, you can find mops, brooms, dustpans, and dusters derived from a Japanese design sensibility that promotes elegance and simplicity, and might even make the act of cleaning its own kind of refreshing ritual.

For storage solutions that could double as home decor, head to ABC Carpet & Home where you can find a hamper that is handmade by artisans in Colombia, or a set of handwoven raffia baskets that can both hold and display items too beautiful to store out of sight, like fresh fruit or jewelry.

Perhaps there is no place in New York City that makes getting organized and productive a more delectable experience than Goods for the Study – McNally Jackson Store. There, you can grab a set of geometric photo stands whose elegance is almost a side effect of their space- and hassle- saving simplicity — change the pictures you display in them as the mood strikes — there will never be a need for bulky frames or for your photographic adornments to remain static. The wood tape dispenser is an elegant touch for your workspace. It’s a piece you’ll want to exhibit, which means you will never go hunting for the tape again. Do you need a Brass Curve Pen Tray? Once you realize it’s a sculpture for your desk as much as a place to keep your writing instruments, the answer is, “It wouldn’t be home without it.”

And if you really need more space, no need to rent a storage unit blocks from home, some of Algin’s buildings offer storage units for rent so all of your possessions can stay under one roof. Explore our availabilities today and find your next home in classic New York.

Want the upscale sophistication of Uptown with the carefree style of Downtown living? Well, look no further than Gramercy — one of New York City’s quintessentially “New York” neighborhoods. With tree-lined streets, a deep history, and a central location, it’s an ideal locale for anyone who wants to experience all that Manhattan has to offer, including the best and most luxurious no-fee apartments in NYC.

Since 1844, Gramercy has served as the verdant centerpiece of the city where its landscaping and architecture add an element of European appeal to this already appealing section of town.

Location

Gramercy affords residents the most picturesque of urban settings, but it also provides a location that makes it easy to get almost anywhere in the city for work or pleasure. Experience the shopping and street life of Union Square — just a five-minute stroll down Park Avenue. There, you’ll find shops like Whole Foods Market, Trader Joe’s, and The Food Emporium. And Chelsea is just a 15-minute walk to the west. Commuters who want an effortless way to get to work can just hop on the 6 train that will have them in Midtown or at Wall Street in under 20 minutes. Don’t want to wait for the train? Get anywhere quickly by taking advantage of the neighborhood’s plentiful Citi Bike stations. Medical professionals love the area since some of the top hospitals in the city are nearby.

Does this sound like the right neighborhood for you? Look for no-fee apartments that are well-maintained and spacious, just like Gramercy Park itself – your next home may already be waiting for you at The Liane or The Townsway.

Legends

Over the years, luminaries from the worlds of politics, business, arts, sciences, and fashion have called Gramercy home — including Oscar Wilde and industrialist Peter Cooper. In fact, Theodore Roosevelt was born in a house on 20th Street — now a National Historic Site. For those who want to celeb hunt, you’ll have no problem with bold-faced names like Uma Thurman, Jimmy Fallon, and Kate Hudson calling Gramercy their home.

Libations and Dining

Whether you want to have a few drinks with friends or one of the best meals of your life in one of the best restaurants in the world, Gramercy should be your home base.

From hidden gems to ultra-upscale eateries, this ‘hood has you covered. Since 1986, Friend of a Farmer has been at the forefront of the farm-to-table movement with grass-fed beef, local cheeses, and a strong focus on sustainability. You’ll be able to have a guilt-free meal no matter what you order. And for an evening to remember, try Maialino, Danny Meyer’s “love song to Rome.” This distinctive modern trattoria transports you to a summer’s night in the Eternal City, where you might indulge in a mouthwatering plate of carbonara in a little spot off the Piazza Navona.

How about a few cocktails pre- or post-dinner? The Gramercy Park Hotel’s Rose Bar is an excellent place to unwind with your favorite whiskey in a refined atmosphere surrounded by original Andy Warhols. Late-night fun continues in the hotel’s Jade Bar, where paintings of celebs are replaced by the subjects themselves who show up to party.

For a delicious nosh anytime of day, The Freehand Hotel offers a bevy of food and beverage options whether it’s breakfast and coffee at Smile to Go, a sumptuous seafood supper at Simon & the Whale, or handcrafted cocktails and warm evenings alfresco atop the hotel in the luxe confines of the Manhattan outpost of Miami’s popular Broken Shaker.

Wind down your night — no matter what time it might be — at L’Express, a 24-hour French bistro that might just have the best croque monsieur in the city. Then, head home to your luxury no-fee Gramercy rental – or, if you’re missing this essential piece of the puzzle, check out Algin Management’s current availabilities.

Looking for a great no-fee apartment in NYC? And how about living in a neighborhood with a truly distinctive character? You might want to consider a residence in Murray Hill. This picturesque part of Midtown Manhattan is steeped in exciting restaurants, great bars and pubs, cultural attractions, and, of course, transportation.

 

Walk This Way

New York City is a perennially wonderful place for a stroll, and Murray Hill’s tranquil, tree-thronged streets lend themselves to lazy morning ambles with your partner — or your four-legged furry friend. As soon as you step out of your no-fee apartment at Murray Park or Laurence Towers, you find yourself in a walking wonderland. Along the way, admire the brownstones, with their wrought iron balconies and wooden shutters, which characterize the neighborhood. Of course, Murray Hill edges onto the East River, too. Endless strolls along the waterfront await, providing a perfect opportunity to drink in vistas across the glinting water. And if you’re looking for something a bit more strenuous than a leisurely afternoon constitutional, round up a couple of friends and make use of the basketball and handball courts of St. Vartan Park.

 

Binge on Culture

Murray Hill contains many of NYC’s best-known architectural and cultural institutions. Whet your appetite for politics with a visit to the iconic headquarters of the United Nations, with its awe-inspiring Secretariat Building and General Assembly Hall. Practice your digital photography skills on the city’s instantly recognizable landmarks, including the Chrysler Building, the Rockefeller Center complex, and the Empire State Building. Call in to Grand Central Terminal to admire the celestial ceiling, devour fresh seafood at the Oyster Bar, and indulge in some quality people watching. For an off-the-beaten-trail escapade, explore the Sniffen Court Historic District, the picturesque cul-de-sac that was once a collection of stables, or get a taste of Nordic culture at the ever-informative Scandinavia House. No two days in Murray Hill are ever the same.

 

Eat, Drink, Be “Murray”

Where even to start with Murray Hill’s food and drink offerings? Perhaps a glass of something cold, effervescent, and refreshing at The Ginger Man, a craft beer bar boasting 70-odd drafts on tap — from lagers to stouts to sours. The Liberty, meanwhile, mixes classic cocktails in Old New York-style surroundings. For dinner, tuck in to a signature mutton chop at Keens Steakhouse, or tend to your Mexican cravings with lashings of smoky black bean soup at Baby Bo’s Cantina. Feeling like Korean in Korea Town? Hit the new 5-star restaurant, Atomix, for dishes as beautiful as they are tasty. Like your dishes loaded with even more spice? Immediately south of Murray Hill lies a thoroughfare of exceptional restaurants serving up the best Indian food you’ve ever tasted in NYC. It’s one of many reasons you’ll never want to move from your Murray Hill apartment.

Explore availabilities at Algin Management’s Murray Hill buildings and find your next home in lively and central New York.

There’s something magical about the downtown lifestyle. Below 14th Street you’ll find an easy mix of world-class culture, cuisine, and couture. Think: morning walks down 8th Street to your favorite coffee shop and nights on the town at the best clubs and restaurants. From jet-setting scenesters to upscale urbanites, those in the know know that Greenwich Village is the ultimate location to experience some of the best of what Manhattan has to offer. And what better way to experience the Village’s townhouses and charming tree-lined streets than to live right in the heart of it all at Hilary Gardens — the beautiful no fee rentals at the center of it all.

While you may be tempted to stay in and savor the spectacular panoramic views of Uptown and Downtown, and enjoy hot cocoa in the modern plaza. In the no fee Manhattan apartments of Hilary Gardens, there’s so much more to life in this storied downtown neighborhood. You can get the full Greenwich Village experience by simply walking through the soaring lobby of the Hilary Gardens and out the front doors.

Just a five-minute walk south, you’ll find Washington Square Park, the de facto epicenter of the Village. A quick walk through this historic park, originally built as military training grounds, will expose you to an explosion of art, music, and all other unexpected surprises that come to the park daily.

A little farther south of the park is not only a massive section of the New York University campus but a hub of old-school NYC history and haunts. Places like Cafe Wha saw the start of Bob Dylan’s career and hosted some of the earlier performances of some legendary one-name greats: Springsteen, Hendrix, and Pryor, to mention only a few.

This is one of the few neighborhoods in New York City where you can feel the city’s past yet be completely ensconced in a modern lifestyle. This is especially true for dining. Buvette is a popular spot whose concept of serving a delectable assortment of small French dishes all day in a cozy atmosphere isn’t new, but it feels distinctly contemporary. It’s the perfect place to drop in any time — for a pre-work pastry, a mid-afternoon lunch with friends, or a romantic date early in the evening. Their mouthwatering croque-monsieur is unrivaled. The owners of Buvette also opened Via Carota, a buzzy Italian restaurant down the street that has quickly become a go-to for many.

Looking to stay active? Take advantage of Hilary Garden’s recently updated state-of-the-art gym, which include two Peleton bikes. Greenwich Village offers creative (and fun) ways to get your cardio on. Enjoy a brisk walk down Bleecker Street, popping into the many unique stores offering beautiful clothes, furniture, and much more.

Looking for a night out in the Village? Head to The Public Theater’s Joe’s Pub for a memorable show on a Saturday night. After the show, don’t forget to stop by Momofuku’s Milk Bar location on 13^th street to end the night on a very sweet note.

Daily life on the Upper West Side is one of ease and access. The Upper West Side no-fee apartments brought to you by Algin Management can be found throughout the neighborhood, near to some of the finest in culture, shopping, and cuisine that the city has to offer. You could spend a lifetime exploring the Upper West Side — and we urge you to — but for now, we’ll just go through a few of our favorites in the way of fun and food that make living here such a delight.

Entertainment

Refined. What else is there to say about the Upper West Side’s marquee marquee, Lincoln Center? This iconic cultural institution, near the Sessanta apartments, is home to 11 performing arts organizations and covers more than 16 acres. Here, you’ll find the Metropolitan Opera, the New York City Ballet, and the New York Philharmonic, as well as the renowned Jazz at Lincoln Center. As New Yorkers, we adore the show tunes of Broadway and welcome plaintive blues played in the Bowery, but when our minds are set on virtuoso violinists or seeing that prima ballerina whose expressive grace makes us weep before the intermission, this is where you’ll find us.

Of course, not every night is right for tuxedos and evening gowns, and on those evenings, we head for the Beacon Theatre, just a few blocks north of 242 West 61st Street. The venue provides superior acoustics and drawing power for both performers and crowds. Over the years, this cultural landmark has been host to the Rolling Stones, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, The Allman Brothers Band, George Carlin, and Jerry Seinfeld, as well as world leaders, such as His Holiness the Dalai Lama and President Bill Clinton. FYI: Tickets for Seinfeld’s 2019 New York residency went on sale on Nov. 2.

Food

If you’re looking to simply “eat,” your choices are practically unlimited on the Upper West Side. If you’re looking for an experience, then book a reservation at Belle Harlem. With only 12 seats and an ever-evolving menu sourced primarily from fresh, local ingredients, the owner’s intention of offering guests the comfort of being attended to in someone’s kitchen is readily met. The menu of comfort foods — like chicken and waffles (the finest you’ll ever eat) and a hearty black sea bass, with sautéed yellow squash, almonds, fennel, asparagus, truffle oil, and lime — gives diners a truly memorable selection of dishes to savor.

Brunch enthusiasts will want to find their way to Flat Top: a cozy bistro whose twists on classic dishes foster contemplation of what you’ll try on your next visit. We’re partial to the blueberry buttermilk ricotta pancakes with lemon curd and the Irish ham Benedict with poached eggs, hollandaise, and spinach on homemade focaccia. However, these are simply two dishes that we favor from a menu filled with unique culinary delights. Excellent Stumptown coffee awaits to accompany your selection and your post-meal conversation with friends.

The Upper West Side boasts easy access to two cornerstones of NYC life: Central Park and fabulous deli food. When you reside at 461 Central Park West you are near to both — across the street from the North Woods and just up the avenue from one of the city’s most notable delicatessens, Barney Greengrass. A family business that dates back 100 years, Barney Greengrass is the go-to for a quick lox and bagel or a weekend brunch with friends. Sturgeon, whitefish, pastrami, gravlax, and sable, all of your favorites are here, along with soups, salads, desserts, appetizers, and even caviar.

Down the way is another luminary in the foodie realm: Zabar’s. Your home for gourmet coffees, seafood salads, and delicious rugelach and babka. Zabar’s carries an amazingly wide selection of specialty items, and offers consistently excellent meats and platters.

The Upper West Side competes heartily with any other neighborhood in the city when it comes to fine dining experiences. Put Red Farm at the top of your list and indulge in an Asian-fusion experience that is uniquely New York. By that, we mean dim sum offerings like BBQ “Black Foot” Berkshire pork belly with grilled jalapeño peppers or Katz’s pastrami egg rolls that sit easily next to 16 ounces of grilled prime Creekstone bone-in New York strip steak, dry aged for 40 days.

Tessa, Mediterranean to its heart, is a complex amalgam of southern French and Italian cuisines twisted into a Spanish tavern. The result is divine with small plates of duck pastrami sliders and

octopus a la Plancha saddled next to hearty mains like grilled branzino with broccoli rabe, fingerling potato, fennel puree, and pimento coulis. Show up hungry, let the sommelier select your wines (you won’t go wrong), and stay for not one but two desserts, such as the bombolino with raspberry jam and vanilla glaze and a decadent chocolate chip bread pudding with bourbon ice cream.

Culture

The American Museum of Natural History brings you one of the finest collections of wonders from the natural world ever assembled under one roof. Start your adventure in the David H. Koch Dinosaur Wing before diving into the Milstein Hall of Ocean Life. Or tour the Milky Way with a show at the Hayden Planetarium. In the warmer months, The Butterfly Conservatory brings hoards of these delicate insects together, while year-round you can explore more exotic creatures from across the sea in the Akeley Hall of African Mammals.

While the American Museum of Natural History is by far the largest museum on the Upper West Side, it is certainly not the only one. Right across the street is the New-York Historical Society, housing 400 years of New York history. The American Folk Art Museum, near to Lincoln Center, hosts an exploration of art “by the self-taught” with more than 7,000 artworks dating from the 18th century to the present, revealing human nature and its expression of self in profound and engaging mediums and forms. And don’t forget the Children’s Museum of Manhattan: fun for all ages with five floors of magic and mystery.

A bit further uptown you’ll be happy to find the National Jazz Museum in Harlem. A Smithsonian affiliate, the museum seeks to preserve and promote this quintessentially American musical genre. The current space is designed to give its visitors “an immersive jazz experience” through exhibits that bring jazz into the present age. In addition, the museum offers the public more than 80 free performances every year. And no visit is complete without an exploration of the Savory Collection: “more than 100 hours of live recordings of jazz legends made from New York City radio broadcasts aired between 1935 and 1941.”

For those seeking fresh air and open space, iconic Central Park is quite literally right in your backyard. With 843 acres of fields, wooded glens, and pathways, the park is the fifth largest in the NYC park system, but certainly its most famous. A National Historic Landmark, the park offers activities and attractions in all seasons, including sporting opportunities at a variety of fields and courts, the Swedish Cottage Marionette Theater, the Central Park Zoo, the Central Park Carousel, and Lasker Rink ice skating, just to name a few. Whatever your outdoor or cultural passion — from bicycling to cross-country skiing; from rock concerts to Shakespeare in the Park — you’ll find an opportunity to indulge it in Central Park.

Central Park in fall… school groups walking up the steps at The Met… a doorman standing beneath a crimson awning… steam billowing off a cart selling honey-roasted nuts… These images are pure Manhattan, and they create a living portrait of the Upper East Side. Fortunately for starry-eyed apartment seekers, the neighborhood famous for the finest art and food is also home to some of the city’s best no-fee rentals. Come along as we highlight some of the Upper East Side’s best attractions, as well as a selection of homes from the UES experts at Algin Management:

An Iconic Aesthetic

The first thing any visitor notices when arriving on the Upper East Side is the unique collection of architecture that gives the neighborhood its identity. Mansions like the French Gothic masterpiece built by Isaac D. Fletcher and the Italian Renaissance-style Henry Cook house give the area an old-world charm. And, to accompany the splendor of great buildings, there is the magnificent stretch of Fifth Avenue that borders Central Park — one of the world’s great urban walking paths.

New construction finds ways to blend in with classic architecture. The neighborhood is full of residential properties like The Pearl on 66th Street, a modern limestone-and-glass doorman building on a tree-lined street that offers some of the finest no-fee rentals in NYC.

Culture – Old and New

From Museum Mile to a host of contemporary art galleries, the Upper East Side is the epicenter of fine art in Manhattan. The Mile begins on the edge of Central Park with The Metropolitan Museum of Art, where beautiful objects from the near and distant past live side by side with contemporary masterpieces. Just a short walk up Fifth Avenue from there rests the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed spiral building which is currently home to an exhibit of colorful abstract paintings by Swedish painter Hilma af Klint. Further north on Fifth Avenue are the Jewish Museum and the Cooper Hewitt, lesser-known but equally impressive museums that focus, respectively, on Jewish art and the history and future of design. For those in the market for fine art, the Upper East Side is home to a vibrant gallery scene, including the Anton Kern Gallery, the Craig F. Starr Gallery, and Francis M. Naumann Fine Art, which routinely host shows featuring work by masters from the last 50 years.

If you’re an art lover and being near these cultural institutions sounds like a dream come true, look for a home at The Parkview, a collection of no-fee rentals on 96th Street with spectacular park and city views and easy access to Museum Mile and Central Park itself.

Finest Dining

Complementing the wealth of arts and architecture is the Upper East Side’s culinary scene, which boasts some of the city’s finest dining as well as some quirkier fare that gives the neighborhood some spice. If Michelin-star restaurants are your calling, Café Boulud, home of creations by world-renowned chef Daniel Boulud, offers seasonal menus that combine classic French cooking with local ingredients and dishes from around the world. If you’re in the mood for something more comforting on a cold winter day, visit the local italian spot, Uva, for a cozy country house feel, with warm lighting, well-worn wood tables, and exposed brick. Looking for something sweet? Head to Two Little Red Hens for cakes, cupcakes, pies, and a full café with a laid back, take-your-time kind of feel. When the sun sets and it’s time for a cocktail, check out Maya, a classic tequileria where exotically-flavored margaritas share the table with delicious small-plate style Mexican dishes. And you can never go wrong with rolls or a chirashi bowl from Poke, the local sushi spot (but don’t forget to BYOB!).

Upper East Siders who like to do their own cooking will love the stainless steel appliances and custom wooden cabinetry in the contemporary kitchens at 330 East 85th Street, a newly renovated white-brick apartment building on a leafy street with convenient access to the brand-new Second Avenue subway at 86th Street.

Lately, Midtown West is brimming with a certain joie de vivre; it’s one of New York City’s most in-demand neighborhoods, and new residents are flocking to the area to take advantage of its conveniences, attractions, and access to every borough, neighborhood, and transport hub imaginable. Midtown West has quickly become a go-to destination for those who want to be in the heart of it all. ARO, Algin Management’s latest rental property, is poised to offer its residents the best rental experience in Midtown West, and the city is buzzing with anticipation.

 

ARO will offer no-fee Midtown West apartment rentals that range from studio to three- bedroom layouts, featuring condo-level finishes and stainless steel appliances. ARO will also offer a stunning four-bedroom duplex penthouse residence. Each apartment exudes a simple and clean aesthetic, thanks to its warm, organic materials, 10-foot ceilings, and natural lighting via its floor-to-ceiling windows.

 

Designed by renowned architecture firm CetraRuddy, ARO’s modern, elegant, and “futuristic” design sets it apart from its neighbors. Slender lines intersect with the undulating curvature of its steel construction. These organic yet dynamic bends aren’t just for show; they are completely functional—the metallic outcroppings allow for many apartments to enjoy private terraces, though every home will feature stunning views of the city. CetraRuddy’s vision has not gone unnoticed; in fact, ARO has received several prestigious architectural awards, including the American Architecture Prize, the SARA National Award, and the Architecture Podium International award. It was also recently featured in Architectural Digest.

 

ARO is situated right on 53^rd Street, where the legendary Roseland Ballroom once stood. The New York Times recently revealed some of the ways in which ARO will pay tribute to that renowned venue; for example, “photographs taken during performances — including of the Rolling Stones, Metallica and Dave Grohl — will be hung” in the building’s common spaces.

 

ARO offers easy access to all of Manhattan’s must-visit destinations, whether for business or pleasure. A trip to Wall Street just takes 15 minutes via the plentiful train options, and an Uber down the West Side Highway might be even quicker. Also close to this exemplary no-fee apartment building in Manhattan is the business hub of Midtown East, which is a quick 10-minute walk away. You’ll be minutes from Thomas Keller’s world-famous Per Se restaurant at the Time Warner Center, which also encompasses a shopping center with luxury shops, lounges and restaurants, and even a Whole Foods. Of course, residents of ARO will find plenty to do right at home – with over 40,000 square feet of amenities, it’s safe to say that there is something at ARO for every lifestyle.

 

Take a look for yourself! And be sure to follow ARO on Facebook and Instagram to stay up-to-date on what the New York Post calls one of “New York’s best new buildings”.

When you’re flying into New York and the Manhattan skyline emerges from under the clouds, it’s nothing short of awe-inspiring—and the only thing more inspiring than that is getting to live in the social, creative, and architectural playground that is Manhattan every day.

Moving here is a dream shared by many, which is partially why finding a no-fee rental in New York City can seem overwhelming. Fortunately, finding your perfect home in NYC is far more manageable than it seems! There is no smoother way to make that transition or to live well and live to the fullest in this city than to find your new no-fee Manhattan apartment through Algin Management.

Whether you’re already a local and looking for your next apartment, or seeking your very first apartment here, read on to learn more about finding no-fee rentals in New York City.

 

Pick the Perfect Neighborhood!

It’s no secret that NYC is massive, and the sheer variety of neighborhoods can seem intimidating to locals and newcomers alike. While every neighborhood has great food, and something exciting going on at all times (it’s New York City, after all!) it pays to be practical when you’re trying to narrow things down. Many find that Manhattan’s more residential neighborhoods make for shorter commutes, without sacrificing access to services and conveniences that make city living so appealing.

If you’re commuting within the city, you’ll want to consider how far you are from the subway (and which lines you can access). You’ll also want to weigh whether you want to be close to green spaces, the water, or if you know you’ll thrive in a denser and more urban locale. Check out our Neighborhood Guide to learn more about what it’s like to live in popular neighborhoods like Murray Hill, Greenwich Village, Midtown, the Upper East Side and Upper West Side, and others!

 

Avoid Broker Fees!

Most apartment listings are managed by real estate brokers, who have arrangements with management companies that allow them to collect fees from tenants when they sign a lease. This can run as high as 15% of one year’s rent!

Fortunately, Algin Management has been matching New Yorkers with their perfect apartment for more than 50 years, and as a family-run business, we know there’s a better way to rent in New York City. As such, we strive to offer apartments that are “no-fee”, meaning you don’t need to worry about paying a broker for showing you an apartment.

Check out our available apartment rentals and avoid the hassle of broker fees entirely!

 

Find A Great Management Company!

Once you’ve found the right no-fee NYC rental, you’ll want to make sure that your building (and apartment) will be managed proactively and professionally. When you live in an apartment that’s well-managed, you will enjoy a sense of calm and peace of mind that will allow you to focus on enjoying life in New York City.

Because Algin Management owns and manages our properties, we know the ins and outs of each building and apartment in our portfolio, and go above and beyond to keep our apartments in pristine condition for each new tenant that signs a lease with us. From doormen to maintenance team members, our on-site staff is friendly and helpful, and a cut above what you may find in other apartment buildings. Check out our properties to see for yourself.

 

Opt for Amenities

Depending on your lifestyle, you may appreciate having certain amenities on-site, rather than a few blocks away – for example, if you work out often, it might be nice to have a fitness center in your building, rather than a few blocks away. Perhaps you may want laundry on-site, rather than sending it to a wash-and-fold, which can get expensive. And if you’re wondering how you can keep your car in the city, many of Algin Management’s buildings have on-site parking garages.

On-site amenities are a difference-maker, and so while you can opt for a no-frills rental and piece together the services and amenities you need on your own, there is a better way. Algin Management has plenty of available apartments in buildings with amazing amenities, like Hilary Gardens’ rooftop swimming pool, or Sessanta’s outdoor, fully-lit tennis court. Find the building that suits your lifestyle, and you’ll find yourself with extra time (and funds) that can be put to better use elsewhere.

If you’re ready to start your search for a new no-fee rental apartment (or ready to finish it), contact us today – we’ve been helping people find the perfect rental for over 50 years. Algin Management is perfectly equipped and more than ready to introduce you to the quintessential New York experience and make you feel utterly at home in it.
