The Ashley's unbeatable suite of amenities and elegant apartments for rent would make it one of the most notable new luxury rental listings on the Upper West Side even if it didn't also boast one of Manhattan's most unique and appealing locations. But with all due respect to The Ashley's astonishing 40,000 square feet of amenities and spacious, gracious new construction rental apartments, what has truly set The Ashley apart as a rising star on the Manhattan apartment scene is a location few Manhattan rentals can match. The Ashley's perch at 60 Riverside Drive offers residents jaw-dropping Hudson River views, easy access to the spectacularly landscaped new park along the Hudson River, and a coveted Riverside Drive address. Take all that together with everything else that The Ashley offers, and it's little wonder that The Ashley has earned a place on any list of Manhattan's elite new construction rental listings.

The Ashley's generous floor plans ensure that each rental flat at The Ashley is plenty spacious, while top-of-the-line finishes and condo-quality fixtures -- the result, perhaps, of the fact that The Ashley shares a building with luxury condo development The Aldyn -- ensure that the apartments for rent at The Ashley embody the best of contemporary Manhattan luxury. Apartment features include solid white oak flooring throughout, with oversized windows bathing each apartment in natural light and soaring ceilings ensuring that each rental unit at The Ashley has an open, airy feel. In every room, in every aspect, The Aldyn's suite of finishes and fixtures impress. The Ashley's open plan kitchens feature Caesar Stone quartz countertops, white oak cabinetry and stainless steel appliances; the elegant baths are adorned with white oak vanities and Kohler fixtures. With a variety of design looks ranging from breaking-edge contemporary to Manhattan traditional, the apartments for rent at The Ashley are also easily customized to any renter's taste.

And of course there are those 40,000 square feet of luxurious extras. The Ashley is home to the largest private amenity space in all of Manhattan -- dubbed "La Palestra," The Ashley's sprawling amenity space includes a spa, bowling alley, game room, golf simulator, basketball and squash courts, climbing wall, indoor pool, Pilates studio, Yoga studio and a fully equipped weight and cardio room with personal trainers available. More conventional luxury conveniences such as a 24-hour doorman and concierge and underground parking share space with more unexpected amenities such as a private courtyard garden and well-appointed children's playroom. The new West Side Park is also an amenity in its own right, and offers Ashley renters access to one of the city's newest and most appealing green spaces. The Riverside South shuttle also makes getting anywhere in the neighborhood a breeze, including the subway hub at Columbus Circle, just a few blocks east. With a uniquely appealing Upper West Side location, a suite of amenities few Upper West Side rental listings can match, and an aesthetic all its own, The Ashley stands out for its full-spectrum luxury, and ranks among the most desirable new construction rental listings on the UWS.
