Battery Park City apartments

Battery Park Apartments

Battery Park City apartments are some of the best options for where to live downtown. Battery Park City is located on the southwest tip of Manhattan, running from West Street to its north, south and western boundaries, the Hudson River. It is a planned community separate from the Financial District, which includes mostly luxury high rise buildings with spectacular views of the Hudson River, Statue of Liberty, New Jersey and the rest of Manhattan. Many families have flocked to this area of the city to take advantage of lower real estate prices, schools and recreational activities available for children.

Although this area is separated by the West Side Highway from the rest of downtown, there are plenty of shopping, food and entertainment options. A relatively new mall holds big box retailers for all your home needs, including Whole Foods, DSW, Bed Bath & Beyond and Duane Reade. The Battery Park Stadium is a huge movie theater complex that shows most of the popular films available on the big screen. In addition, several restaurants line the Hudson River and offer residents a great outdoor meal on nice days.

Battery Park City’s proximity to the Financial District and TriBeCa, allow inhabitants to enjoy other parts of downtown Manhattan without having to travel far. For food lovers, TriBeCa possesses some of the best and most well-known restaurants in Manhattan. The area is also convenient for anyone working on Wall Street and one of the largest parks in the city, Battery Park, is right around the corner.
