Development Marks First New Rental Project for Neighborhood in Many Years, Bringing Much Needed Housing to the Area, Along with Great Amenities for Residents
Fetner Properties announces the opening of 266 West 96th Street, a 23-story mixed-use, amenity-laden residence on Manhattan’s Upper West Side. The building fills a significant void in new Upper West Side rental inventory.
Designed by SLCE Architects, the development brings a total of 171 affordable new residences to the market, including 83 fully furnished studios. The highly functional space was carefully designed to create a seamless experience for residents, with no features or amenities overlooked.
“The need for efficient and state-of-the-art housing at affordable price points is paramount in New York City,” said Hal Fetner, President, and CEO of Fetner Properties. “We are proud to bring beautiful homes complete with top-of-the-line energy efficiency standards and tech-forward services to the Upper West Side and are thrilled to welcome new residents to the neighborhood.”
Featuring flexible floor plans ranging from studios to three-bedroom homes, all residences include upscale fixtures and finishes, modern flooring, and smart appliances and utilities. The one-bedroom homes and up include washer and dryers. Studio residences feature induction stovetops. Rents begin at $3,400 for studios.
A full floor of amenities are available for residents: a lounge with a fireplace, work pods, a private call room, a media room perfect for enjoying a movie with friends, and a party room that is available for reservations. Residents also have access to a children’s playroom and pet spa. Two outdoor rooftop terraces offer access to grills and sweeping views as far north as the George Washington Bridge, all the way down to Hudson Yards, with northern, western, and southern exposures.
With a premium fitness facility and nearby running and biking trails in both Riverside Park and Central Park, living at 266 West 96th Street makes staying fit a breeze. In addition to the wide array of cardio and strength equipment onsite, tennis courts and athletic fields are also located in the neighborhood. A bike storage room completes the full fitness package.
“266 West 96th Street came to fruition from the collaboration of some of the finest design professionals and consultants the profession has to offer, and collectively the group has created one of the most innovative buildings the Upper West Side has ever seen,” said Damon Pazzaglini, Chief Operating Officer of Fetner Properties. “At Fetner Properties, we strive to create unique communities where residents really feel connected with each other, the building, and the greater neighborhood they live in. We are proud to have achieved that here.”
Located between West End Avenue and Broadway, 266 West 96 Street is one block west of the 96th Street subway station, which is serviced by the 1, 2, and 3 trains. The Westside Highway is easily accessible and Riverside Park, astride the Hudson River, is a block away. The lively neighborhood is filled with restaurants, cafés, schools, excellent shopping, and public amenities.
