What $2,700/Month Can Rent You in New York City

New, 13 comments

Welcome to Curbed Comparisons, a column that explores what one can rent for a set dollar amount in various NYC neighborhoods. Is one man's studio another man's townhouse? Let's find out! Today's price: $2,700/month.


↑ In Park Slope, a "cozy 2 bedroom," also known as a tiny two-bedroom, is asking $2,690/month. Heat and hot water are included and there's a windowed kitchen, but it's also a fourth-floor walkup.


↑ In Greenwich Village, three blocks south of Washington Square Park, a studio apartment with whitewashed exposed brick, two windows, and a decorative fireplace is going for $2,675/month.


↑ In Greenpoint, a renovated two-bedroom apartment with high ceilings and large windows is asking $2,775/month. The living room and kitchen look nice enough, though the other pictures don't inspire a lot of hope about the bedrooms being particularly large.


↑ If you've been looking for a nice one-bedroom with twins beds and glass rolling nightstands, you've probably been pretty frustrated—until now. We're not quite sure what's going on in the bedroom of this Clinton Hill apartment, asking $2,700/month, but the private backyard is pretty sweet.


↑ Way out in Astoria, you can get three bedrooms and one-and-a-half baths for $2,650/month. The apartment is not particularly inspiring, but there is a separate kitchen and, as mentioned, three whole bedrooms. The bedrooms have wall-to-wall carpeting.


↑ And in Brooklyn Heights, a one-bedroom with some nice architectural details in a brownstone building is going for $2,725/month. The highlight, though, is undoubtedly the large private deck.
