Battery Park City: LEEDing the Way in Green Rentals

There’s a lot of green in New York City…well New York City’s real estate market, and we’re not talking about money. Green building is a hot trend, and LEED certification is a surefire way of adding some appeal to what would otherwise be an ordinary rental. One of the more recent additions to Manhattan’s green rental market is Liberty Green in the city’s most sustainable neighborhood, Battery Park City. Yet Liberty Green is not alone; sustainability is rapidly-growing trend around the world, and New York City in particular.

Battery Park City has become a green mecca in Manhattan for a few reasons, aided by the fact that it is privately owned. All new property, both rentals and general real estate, must satisfy LEED requirements, a policy dating back to 2000, far before many other places followed suit. As a result, there is a vast array of green renting available in Battery Park City, with The Verdesian, The Solaire, Tribeca Green, and Liberty Luxe all certified at least to LEED Gold standards and open for new residents.

New York, Burger City: Two Manhattan Neighborhoods Snag Beloved Burgerterias

At Luxury Rentals Manhattan, we are not unaware that people browsing Manhattan rental apartment listings are often looking for different things. This is why we've built our search so that NYC apartment hunters can find apartments near subways and rental listings near parks and so on. It's our hope that a more focused and specific way to search Manhattan apartments will lead to a more satisfying and successful experience. That said, there is not currently a search function at LRM that enables you to find an apartment located near a delicious hamburger. For that, we use the LRM blog. No, seriously: we've covered Shake Shack pretty extensively in the past, and we're not going to stop doing that. We do it for you, readers. And also we do it because we're hungry, and because Shake Shack is delicious. And so it is with no small amount of delight that we inform Luxury Rentals Manhattan readers that rental listings in Battery Park City will very soon be rental listings near a delicious hamburger.

Verdesian, Solaire Developer Sheds Some Light on Green Rental Apartments (Among Other Things) in New York Times

When Christopher Albanese speaks, the Luxury Rentals Manhattan blog listens. This is because Albanese's real estate development company, The Albanese Organization, has developed some truly extraordinary green rental buildings in Battery Park City: the Solaire and Verdesian. Two of the greenest green apartment listings in Manhattan, the Solaire and Verdesian were trend-setters in the burgeoning market for green rental apartments in Manhattan, and happen to be pretty beautiful buildings beside. Given your blogger's admitted soft spot for green apartment buildings, the Solaire and Verdesian are sentimental favorites of a sort, but the apartments for rent at the Solaire and Verdesian are also among the most popular rental listings here at Luxury Rentals Manhattan, so the favoritism isn't entirely sentiment-driven.
