Sleek, modern and stylish inside and out, The Melar is perhaps the defining luxury high-rise rental building on this stretch of one of Manhattan's most desirable neighborhoods, and certainly one of the most desirable no-fee rentals on the Upper West Side. With amenities that afford discerning NYC dwellers the lavish living experience they expect from a luxury rental apartment on the Upper West Side and graceful, innovative interior design on display in every apartment home, The Melar is a true Upper West Side gem.

The amenities alone at The Melar place it in the top tier of luxury apartment listings on the Upper West Side. The windowed fitness center features state-of-the-art Cybex cardio and strength-training equipment, while the strikingly landscaped residents-only sun terrace offers striking city and river views and a private refuge from the city below. The stylish lobby has 24-hour doorman and concierge service, and copious storage space -- including a bicycle storage room and private resident storage lockers -- offers another added convenience and creates extra space in the already spacious rental residences.

The Melar's apartment homes offer renters uncommon and all-encompassing luxury. With stylish studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom and convertible three-bedroom apartments available, The Melar's rental units offer a variety of looks and a high-level of aesthetic excellence. Floor-to-ceiling windows bathe each residence in sunlight and offer city and river views; oak plank flooring adds luminous warmth to every room. The gourmet kitchens and baths, too, are at the very cutting edge of Manhattan luxury -- the richly detailed baths feature imported Italian tile, lacquer-style vanities, fog-resistant mirrors and oversized medicine cabinets; sleek kitchens feature state-of-the-art appliances, in-sink disposals and stone counters.

The Melar's prime Upper West Side location puts the best of this exciting neighborhood within reach. The charms of Riverside Park and Central Park are short walks away -- good news for those who choose to take advantage of The Melar's pet-friendly policies -- while the Upper West Side's famed cultural attractions, shopping, restaurants and lively nightlife are just outside the door. The Melar is also just steps to the subway station at 96th Street, where the 1, 2, and 3 trains and a crosstown bus put the rest of the city just a few stops away. With an ideal location, stunning residences and an impressive array of resident services, The Melar is one of the finest rental listings on the Upper West Side, and one of this lovely neighborhood's premier no-fee rentals.
