If you're a city dweller who values sunlight, skyline views, and a home that feels like a personal retreat — 225 Rector Place might just check every box.
This spacious studio, easily the size of a one-bedroom, isn’t just another apartment — it’s your front-row seat to the beauty of New York Harbor. With five oversized windows (four facing east, one south), your morning coffee comes with sailboats gliding by the Statue of Liberty, kids playing on the green below, and a front-row view of the city's ever-changing weather.
Inside, you’ll find three large closets — yes, three — giving you more than enough room for every season’s wardrobe, weekend gear, and the inevitable overflow of New York life. It’s clean, bright, and cleverly laid out to offer both breathing room and privacy, all in one flexible, open-concept space.
But what truly sets this home apart is what’s waiting just beyond your front door.
225 Rector Place is packed with amenities that make daily life feel more like resort living. Picture this:
A 24-hour concierge who knows your name
An on-site tailor and dry cleaner (because who really wants to leave the building?)
A two-story fitness center that opens into a 40-foot indoor atrium pool — complete with oversized skylights
Locker rooms, steam room, and a resident lounge perfect for working from home in style
A 360° rooftop terrace with sweeping views, grilling stations, and even a rentable cabana for private events
There’s also a children’s playroom, laundry facilities, and an attached garage, making this a rare gem for both convenience and community.
And when you're ready to explore, you're perfectly positioned: right by the Battery Park footbridge, minutes from the 1, R, W, 4, and 5 trains, plus PATH and World Trade Center Transit Hub access. Not to mention you’re just blocks from Brookfield Place, Le District, and the waterfront esplanade — perfect for after-work drinks or weekend brunch with a view.
For the buyer who wants more than just a place to sleep — who wants light, luxury, and a little bit of daily magic — this studio is a lifestyle, not just a listing.
