Madison Square Park est devenu l'épicentre du cool à Manhattan et le siège de l'industrie technologique de New York. La zone est animée jour et nuit, ce qui en fait un quartier très intéressant situé entre Downtown et Midtown. Autour de Madison Square Park se trouvent trois quartiers distincts : NoMad, Flatiron et Gramercy. Autour de Madison Square Park, vous trouverez les derniers restaurants étoilés au guide Michelin, comme 11 Madison et Nomad, ou des options plus décontractées comme Scarpetta et Eataly. En plus des restaurants, vous trouverez des bars à Nomad et des commerces variés à Flatiron.
NoMad is one of the hottest neighborhoods in the city, steps to Madison Square Park, Gramercy Park, Credit Suisse, and the many tech companies that call this neighborhood home. The Observer calls the neighborhood the “de facto home of New York’s startup and digital media community” and is a thriving live, work, play neighborhood. The neighborhood sprouted up in around 2010 after Madison Square Park was redeveloped. NoMad is a small neighborhood that lies to the north of Madison Square Park from East 26th Street to East 31st Street and from Sixth Avenue to Lexington Avenue.
Without the height restrictions of neighboring Flatiron and Gramercy, NoMad new development has been on steroids, rapidly changing the area almost overnight with a number of 60-story towers that offer breathtaking views of the city. New hotels like the Ritz Carlton and Virgin Hotels will be coming to Broadway in NoMad. The vibe of NoMad during the day is fast paced, while at night it becomes a more cool casual destination. Perhaps the most exciting part of the neighborhood where you will find the most NoMad apartments for sale is from Fifth Avenue to Lexington Avenue.
The Flatiron District lies just south of NoMad. It was named after the infamous triangular building at the intersections of Fifth Avenue and Broadway. The Flatiron runs from Union Square to East 26th Street and from Sixth Avenue to Lexington Avenue. A bustling neighborhood, Flatiron includes many popular restaurants and a dynamic retail presence focusing on fashion, beauty and home furnishings.
Flatiron is home to many technology companies and it is where co-working in NYC took off because of all these tech companies in this location (also called Silicon Alley). Flatiron also is home to coding schools and CUNY campus. Flatiron’s central location (making it very easy to get to the west side) has been attracting developers to convert existing warehouses to condos. As there are many zoning restrictions in this neighborhood, there are a limited number of Flatiron apartments for sale, especially new development condos.
Long appreciated for its beauty, its historic architecture and its very own private park (Gramercy Park), the Gramercy neighborhood is a peaceful respite from the craziness of the city. Gramercy offers a step back in history with ivy covered brownstones and lots of greenery. It is steps away from the hustle and bustle of Madison Square Park and Union Square Park, but still very calm even though it is so close by.
Given it’s one of the oldest neighborhoods in Manhattan, there is not a lot of land to build on. Gramercy runs from Lexington Avenue to First Avenue and from East 14th Street to East 23rd Street. As Gramercy stretches eastward toward the East River, some very nice new developments have come in along Third Avenue and Second Avenue. East of Third Avenue, however, is where you will find all the old brownstones.
Address: 277 Fifth Avenue, NoMad
Project: This 55-story tower was designed by Rafael Vinoly, the same architect of the 432 Park Avenue apartments, one of the most notable and expensive condo buildings in New York City.

All 130 apartments are corner units that have double and triple exposure depending upon the size. In addition, many apartments have outdoor loggias.
Given the building's position at 5th and 30th, the views of the Manhattan skyline are spectacular including iconic buildings like the Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, Flatiron Building, Madison Square Clock Tower and One World Trade Center (in the distance!).

Project: This handsome new construction Art Deco 600 foot tall tower is in the heart of NoMad on East 29th Street between Madison Avenue and Park Avenue South. Rusticated hardwood floors and bronze finished hardware run throughout the residences.
We especially love the kitchens, which feature custom ultra-matte dark charcoal cabinetry with metal-framed glass upper cabinets (that rise all the way up to the ceiling) and Calacatta Razzi honed marble countertops. In addition, the efficient and thoughtful floor plans help keep prices down and provide flexibility by allowing owners to change layouts to their needs. These clever use of pocket doors, home offices, and thoughtful layouts allow apartment owners to use their flex space as a nursery, library, office, den, or guest bedroom.
Amenities: 24-hour concierge, lounge, landscaped courtyard, gym, squash court, 50-foot pool, dry heat wellness sauna.

The views, interior finishes and 11' tall ceilings set Madison House apart.

Address: 368 Third Avenue, NoMad
Project: VU is a 35-story condo at 368 Third Avenue (at 27th and Third), along the border of NoMad and Kips Bay, which lies East of NoMad. We like the interior designer Paris Forino, the architect SLCE, excellent first offering price and selection of smaller units.
The understated luxurious interiors are “light and airy” in neutral tones, pricing is excellent for new development, and there are actually studio apartments here. Most new developments just concentrate on building the largest size units, of which there is an oversupply of now. NYC is in dire need of studios and 1 bedroom new development, which you can find here at VU.

Project: Madison Square Park Tower is one of the most iconic buildings in Downtown. The soaring tower is a sculptural glass silhouette standing at sixty-five stories rising seven hundred and seventy seven feet in the sky. Not surprising, this residential building has set new records for Flatiron in terms of price per square foot.
