This fully furnished alcove studio apartment is located in Battery Park, part of downtown Manhattan, New York. The apartment, completely renovated in 2015, is on the 11th floor (tenth floor for Europeans) of a luxury elevator building. The building also includes a full-time doorman, concierge, and laundry facilities. There is a gym and a pool on the property as well that can be accessed with a membership for an additional monthly rate.
Enjoy the amazing view of the New York City skyline from the wide windows of this apartment. The apartment features hardwood floors, air conditioning, and a kitchen that is fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, including a gas stove, dishwasher, and microwave. Cable television and internet access are available. Three closets provide plenty of storage space. The living area of this alcove studio can be divided from the sleeping area with a curtain.
This apartment is located on Rector Place and South End Avenue in the Battery Park section of New York City. The neighborhood is full of restaurants, coffee shops, stores, and bars. Popular places to dine at include 2 West, Liberty View Restaurant, Battery Market, and Winter garden Café, all within a quarter of a mile from the studio. The esplanade running alongside the Hudson River is a great place to take a stroll or jog, and Battery Park itself is a pleasant green oasis in the city that never sleeps! Adjacent neighborhoods include TriBeCa and Bowling Green.
Downtown Manhattan has many well-known attractions such as Trinity Church, Wall Street, Battery Park and Ground Zero. Just .7 mi (11.3 km) away is the South Street Seaport. Not only does the Seaport have excellent places to eat, you can visit shops such as Coach, Abercrombie & Fitch, Guess, and J Crew. In the warmer months of the year, be sure to check out the New Amsterdam Market, full of local and regional vendors selling everything from honey to kombucha to ice cream cones, as well as the typical assortment of fresh veggies and fruits.
The N and R subway station is located 2 blocks away near Rector Street / Trinity Place. You can also catch the 1 train here, which runs locally and will take you through Penn Station, Times Square and Columbus Circle, all the way through the Upper West Side to Uptown Manhattan.

PLEASE NOTE - my score of the condition was prior to the refurb (pictured), which is beautifully done and raises it to 4/5 stars. |

I had a wonderful stay and the apartment was very nice to live in. Its main drawback is the heater/cooler system which is extremely noisy and hard to get used to. I found also the bathroom is not well-ventilated, so there's too much humidity. |

I enjoyed renting at Rector Place. Every one of the doormen and front desk staff were very friendly. The location was close to several subway lines which was very convenient. The apartment itself |

Thank you for your thorough feedback Samira. We contacted the owner of the apartment to convey your comments. The owner said the Ethernet should be functioning fine now. He will speak with the cleaners and make sure the apartment is being thoroughly cleaned and is up to the standards that New York Habitat expects. There is a gym and a pool on the property, but they are not owned by the same owner and there is indeed a monthly membership fee to access these. We hope you enjoyed living in Battery Park for the time of your rental. |

The apartment is well furnished. The only thing missing was the household linen. In addition, the internet connection is far too slow, the wi-fi hardly worked. The ironing board is too small. Apart from these few points, the apartment is very pleasant. |
Answer by: New York Customer Service Jun 07 2011 |
Many thanks for reviewing this apartment rental, Emmanuel. All your comments have been conveyed to the owner who told us that he has just provided 2-3 sets of brand new linens. We are all glad to hear you found the apartment to be pleasant and well furnished. |
