Condo Purchase Review for Midtown New York Office Worker@Midtown East

Our client, a Midtown Manhattan attorney, wanted to stop renting his apartment, where he was paying $5,000 a month.

He hoped to invest in a new condo where he could live. We recommended the Eastlight condo in Manhattan’s East Midtown neighborhood, near his office, with excellent infrastructure and within his budget.

The one-bedroom unit, known as a C Line, features a small space that our client, who works remotely, could use as a home office.

The Eastlight was completed in 2021. It has 34 floors and 144 units, developed by COA 200 E 34th LLC and designed by CetraRuddy.

Located at the border of Kips Bay, NoMad, and Midtown Manhattan, it boasts excellent accessibility to mass transit and is surrounded by landmark locations. Additionally, it is close to Koreatown, an area filled with restaurants, cafes, and diverse retail stores. With parks along the East River, such as Madison Square Park and Bryant Park, it also offers green space for exercise.

Within a 13-minute walk, homeowners have access to the 4, 5, 6, 7 and S New York City Subway lines. There is also a nearby ferry. By foot, it is 10 minutes to NYU Medical School and 12 minutes to the School of Visual Arts. By subway, it is 15 minutes to New York University and 15 minutes to the Parsons School of Design, making it a convenient location for students.

Instead of renting an apartment for their children in college in New York, our clients decided they wanted to invest in New York real estate. They wanted a place convenient for commuting to the school their children are attending. Koriny quickly matched the couple with a preferred area, budget, size and their loan needs.

They ended up buying a unit at the Eastlight, a newly built condo developed by COA 200 E 34th LLC and designed by CetraRuddy. Completed in 2021, it consists of 34 floors and 144 units.

Located on the border of Kips Bay, NoMad, and Midtown Manhattan, the building offers excellent access to major landmarks: Madison Square Park, Bryant Park, the Empire State Building, and the East River. It is also close to vibrant Koreatown, a densely populated area with restaurants, cafes, and retail stores.
