With the coronavirus pandemic upending lives, and in a real estate market with a glut of luxury apartments, developers in New York City are getting creative with special promotions and programming to respond to the needs of COVID-weary residents.
At Charlie West, a new 123-unit luxury condominium in Hell’s Kitchen, developers El Ad Group and Mi&Co Development recently partnered with Andres Escobar of Lemay + Escobar Architects, who designed the building’s interiors, to create custom home offices for its residents.
Each resident will receive $10,000 from the developer to purchase office furnishings and decor, and technology such as a laptop, printer or monitor, and will be able to work with Escobar to create their custom home office. The offering plan for the building, where units range from $ 865,500 for a studio to $5,255,000 for a four-bedroom, is currently being changed to incorporate the partnership.Recommended For You
