Apartments Rentals Near 14th Street & 3rd Avenue Subway Station [L train]

Union Square South doesn't have the instant name recognition of such Manhattan mega-addresses as Broadway or Fifth Avenue, but it's a quintessentially New York address just steps from the best of downtown Manhattan living. With the energy of Greenwich Village to the south, the gracious quiet of Gramercy and Flatiron to the north, and Union Square Park right across the street, 1 Union Square South offers a commanding view of the park and as central a Greenwich Village location as can be imagined.

Built in 1903 by Bruce Price, the Bank of the Metropolis is a striking 16-story high-rise that is as impressive now as it was when it was built. Located at 31 Union Square West, right across the street from Union Square Park, the Bank of the Metropolis is a tripartite luxury building built in the neo-renaissance style with an imposing limestone-clad exterior. The Bank of the Metropolis retains its classical austerity; the 2-story bowed portico with polished granite columns leads into a marble lobby that transports residents back to New York’s era of classic luxury.
