The spacious open kitchen with a large breakfast bar, is top-of-the line, and includes a Bosch stove and dishwasher, as well as an abundance of cabinet space including a pull-out pantry drawer. There is an area after the entry hallway that works perfectly as an office space. There is plenty of room for a dining table and the bright, spacious living room is sunny all day.

It is a five minute walk to Madison Square Park, Fairway Market, tons of restaurants, pubs and super easy to take the 23rd St. crosstown, 2ndor 3rd Avenue busses and the 6 & R subway lines are very nearby. Kips Bay is centrally located and an easy, vibrant neighborhood to live in and enjoy. Sorry no co-purchasing or investors. Don't miss!

Kips Bay | Manhattan

Quick Profile

If you take a walk through Kips Bay, which is loosely defined as the area between 23rd street and 34th street and the East River to almost Lexington, you’ll quickly learn it's a hodgepodge of sorts and not as well defined as other neighborhoods in New York City. Some New Yorkers say Kips Bay has an identity crisis because 1st, 2nd, and 3rd avenues are distinctly different from one another as you traverse them. Despite the perceived lack of neighborhood vibe there are others that appreciate its affordability and convenience.  

First Avenue is dominated by hospitals and hospital buildings such as NYU Medical Center and Bellevue Hospital to name a few. Second Avenue is a mosaic of convenience stores, fast food joints and nondescript brick buildings. Third Avenue is saturated with small bars and gastropubs and the twenty somethings that patronize them. 

No judgement against Kips Bay here. It’s a great neighborhood that is just as much a part of New York City as any other neighborhood. Kips Bay It’s bordered by Murray Hill to the North, Stuyvesant Town and Gramercy Park to the South, and Rose Hill to the West. The neighborhood is partly defined by newer high-rise apartments, brick rowhouses, and former tenement buildings.
