About This Lister

This is a lease takeover with the option to renew directly with our amazing landlord at the end of February 2026. My husband and I currently live here with our pup, Summer — she’s a fluffy bundle of joy who especially loves the private courtyard and nearby walks in Central Park. We both work in creative and tech fields and have loved calling this apartment home. We’re personally handling all showings to help find someone who will love the space and the neighborhood as much as we have. Our landlord has fully approved the lease transfer process — everything is smooth and ready for the right next tenant!
