The Lower East Side Gets Its First Spring 2021 Condominium Launch at New Empire Corp.’s 208 Delancey

 New Empire Corp. (New Empire), announces that sales have officially commenced at 208 Delancey, a 12-story, 85-unit new luxury condominium located at the corner of Pitt Street on the Lower East Side (LES) making it the first Spring 2021 condo launch for the neighborhood.

“Our goal for 208 Delancey was to create an elevated extension of the Lower East Side, offering residents a calming oasis to come home to,” said Bentley Zhao, Chairman and CEO of New Empire. “With an added emphasis on green spaces complemented by a robust amenity package and striking design, we are confident these new homes juxtapose the surrounding area quite nicely.”

Designed by award-winning architectural and interior design firm, ODA New York, the 67,300-square-foot Bauhaus-inspired building embraces a curved brass and copper façade, artfully reflecting natural light and creating a sophisticated urban sanctuary.

“This dynamic neighborhood demanded a dynamic building, one with movement, flow, and energy. Drawing inspiration from the Bauhaus, we incorporated curved glass and an undulating facade that continues inside. We wanted to imbue as much light, air, and vibrancy as possible into the building and its interiors,” said Eran Chen, Founder and Executive Director of ODA. “We tried to tie it into the urban fabric and the history of the Lower East Side, but the architecture stands on its own as a new landmark in the neighborhood.”

Residences, starting at $630,000, range in size from 388-square-foot studios to 1,289-square-foot three-bedroom penthouses boasting open floor plans with a smart keyless door entry, European oak plank flooring and oversized windows. Gourmet kitchens feature marble countertops, backsplashes and island waterfalls, as well as a suite of Miele appliances, including in-residence washer and dryers and a refrigerator with integrated cabinetry. Sleek bathrooms boast Duravit soaking tubs, marble clad walk-in showers, radiant heated marble floors, LED lighting features and more. Select residences offer private outdoor terraces, curved corner windows and wine coolers.

“We played with the geometry of the interiors and incorporated sculpted, organic materials,” said Ryoko Okada, Director of Interiors at ODA. “Because 208 Delancey is situated in a historic, vibrant neighborhood, we paid tribute to the many types of people that have lived in the community, capturing a lively sense of movement at different scales.”

“Buyers in today’s market increasingly demand all-inclusive amenity perks and private, outdoor space – a rarity in Manhattan,” said David Chang, Sales Director at Compass Development Marketing Group, the firm handling the sales and marketing exclusively. “Those seeking prime real estate in Manhattan with comfortable floor plans and expansive green space will be attracted to 208 Delancey’s wraparound balconies, lushly landscaped rooftop and meditation area, which residents can enjoy year-round.”

Replacing My Furnace In NYC

If you own a home in NYC, then you know first-hand how brutal winters in New York City can be. You also know how cold it can get at night during fall and spring. Undoubtedly, you cannot survive in NYC without a dependable furnace. Therefore, you must know when it's time to replace your furnace to keep your home reliably heated throughout the cold seasons.

The following signs will tell you that it's time to replace your furnace.

Your Furnace Is More Than a Decade Old

Typically, most furnaces are designed to have a service life of between 15 and 20 years. When your furnace repeatedly fails to heat your home even after several repairs, it may be a sign of wear and tear. Particularly if your furnace has served you for more than ten years, it's a good sign that you need to replace it. The lifespan of your furnace can be longer or shorter depending on the quality of installation and how well you maintain it.

You Are Experiencing Humidity Problems in Your Home

If you observe that the air in your home is excessively dry in the winter and too humid during summer, your furnace may be to blame. Having humidity problems in your home is a health hazard. Frequent exposure to dry air can trigger respiratory ailments. In extreme cases, you or other family members living in your NYC home can get asthma, bronchitis, or catch a common cold.

To avoid jeopardizing your health, you should replace your furnace immediately you start having humidity problems in your home. A functional furnace improves indoor air quality. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the typical American spends 93% of their life indoors.

This means that quality air in your home will enhance your health and increase your life expectancy. As it stands, the average service life of an American is 78 years. According to the National Center for Health Statistics, a child born in 2015 has an expected lifespan of 78.8 years. For a female child, life expectancy is 81.2 years, while that of a male child is 76.5 years. Significant differences also correlate with regions of the U.S., income, and other factors that include the capacity to retain quality indoor air in a home in all seasons. That's why it's of the utmost importance to replace your furnace whenever you have humidity problems in your home.

Your Furnace Keeps Leaking Even After Multiple Repairs

Sometimes water may leak from your furnace because of excess condensation, blocked drainage, wrong flue size on your standard-efficiency furnace, or when the whole-house humidifier leaks into the furnace. This causes puddles to form under the furnace and spread to the floor over time, exposing you to fall accidents. It's estimated that 22% of slip accidents cause people to miss work for more than 31 days.

While a leaking furnace may still heat your home, it will eventually break down if you don't have it fixed by a professional HVAC technician. However, if the problem persists after multiple repairs, it's a sign that you should replace your furnace right away.

You Hear Loud Unusual Noises From the Furnace

Unusual loud noises from your furnace may mean that there are some loose parts in the unit, or cracks and leaks have developed in your furnace. Mostly, these problems are triggered by wear and tear or poor maintenance. If the noises persist even after one or two repairs, you should consider replacing your furnace.

You want to keep your NYC home sufficiently heated in all seasons. This means that you must keep your furnace operating optimally. If your furnace is more than ten years old and doesn't heat your home well, you should consider installing a new unit. It's more cost-effective to replace an old and problematic furnace than to have it repaired.

Why you should consider investing in pre-construction condos

Many investors are increasingly interested in the real estate market because it’s performing pretty well.  This is the reason why purchasing pre-construction is a great way for any person to invest in a long-term investment vehicle that is considered to be passive. It can also be a good thing for first-time home buyers to get into the real estate market. If you intend to buy new condos, then you will be pleased to know that condo sales have increased exponentially recently. 

Understanding the preconstruction is crucial if you're considering investing in pre-construction condos. To grasp the concept fully, read more about the meaning of preconstruction which will empower you to make informed decisions regarding your investment in the real estate market.

No wonder, there are now many investors looking to buy pre-construction condos because competition has also grown. Even better, the condo occupancy rates are also quite good as there is a high demand for them. This post discusses why you should consider investing in pre-construction condos.

An extended deposit program 

When buying a new build condo, you will find that the deposits vary between 15 to 20 percent and are usually spread out. The payment can sometimes extend over 18 to 24 months. In most cases, if you don’t have to put down this 20 percent upfront, it allows you to save up. There are some situations where you can use a line of credit to get further spread out on the payment deposits but this is not always available to all property investors so it is worth looking carefully at your options first.

During the 3 to 5 year period it takes to construct, other than you paying the deposit, you have no mortgage obligation until closing. The mortgage comes in only on closing. As a result, you can own pre-construction real estate but it may not appear on the credit bureau. Even better, this can allow you to have the flexibility of owning a condo without affecting the debt ratio or even your chance to access debt from any lender in this period. 

When it comes to the first-time buyers, this extended deposit program and period it takes to start and complete constructing a condo can allow you to save up. Many of these first-time condo buyers regard it as a forced investment or saving strategy. After all, it is always easier to save some cash when you know that there is a condo you need to pay for. This financial planning becomes even more crucial when considering factors like the need for a structural integrity reserve study in Florida. As part of responsible condominium ownership, such studies ensure that the property's structural elements are well-maintained, and an extended deposit program can contribute to a secure and financially manageable path towards homeownership.

Gentrifying is your best option

Purchasing a pre-construction condo is like you are purchasing futures in the stock market. Therefore, you can purchase at today’s prices believing that in the future, prices will go up. Historically, long-term prices of properties tend to go up. So there is a good chance that you can improve the odds of appreciation by getting properties in gentrifying neighborhoods. 

This is where key infrastructure or even transit is scheduled to be constructed. Since the property you intend to purchase may not be available for at least 3 to 5 years, then it makes sense to get a new condo in an area that is rising. These neighborhoods can have a lower buying price entry point and also a higher potential to be more successful than the other markets. 

Hands off

While owning or investing can be lucrative and exciting, owning real estate can usually be a hands on experience. Therefore, there are many potential investors and buyers out there who avoid this opportunity. One of the huge benefits to purchasing pre-construction property is the 3 to 5 years, the period when the construction can be passive.

When the construction is done, you can get a qualified realtor to rent out your property. Also, a realtor may even manage your property for an affordable fee. With this in mind, all building maintenance issues that come in the couple of years have a warranty. This applies to all new constructions, so they can sometimes have a warranty of up to 7 years. Remember that this type of warranty and protection to a resale cannot extend out for a new build. Hence, running a small condo can take minimal time. ‘

There is a civilized process

Oftentimes, when buying resale, you can find many desirable condos that sell in fierce bidding wars. This can usually come with last minute decisions that may sometimes be based on emotions. In these types of situations, you need to make a competitive offer that has no conditions to succeed purchasing the property. 

But when purchasing pre-construction, you get what is called a 10-day cooling off period. Therefore, during this period, you have the chance to review the buying information with your attorney, realtor, lender, and financial advisor. You can also use this period to do more due diligence on the area and builder. It’s a far more effective process that allows you to assess this investment opportunity.

A new property is better

When it involves the resale condo market, buyers and renters can get distracted by the shiny and new property. Because of this, many people are ready to pay a premium. But with time, buildings can become outdated and the maintenance fees can significantly rise. At this point, a condo building’s appreciation can begin to slow compared to the rest of the market. It means, when you purchase a condo today, in just a few years it can age and. 

With this, you should know that the condo is approaching the end of its prime. On the other hand, if you decide to buy a new condo, it means even in a couple of years you will still have a new property. The good news is that it will still be in high demand while appreciating and going above the market during the building period. 

This is the reason why many people prefer Toronto preconstruction real estate, and for several years pre-construction condo sales continue increasing. Home buyers and investors believe that pre-construction is a passive, lucrative, and safe way you can get property. Because not all pre-construction are the same, it’s crucial that you know the builder. When you decide to make such a huge investment like purchasing pre-construction real estate, you need to have an experienced realtor by your side. 

This means that you should find a real estate agent who has enough experience in pre-construction. This person needs to find the proper opportunities to guide you through the process.

Sales launch at ODA's 2505 Broadway in Manhattan's Upper West Side

Imagery credit: MOSO Studios

2505 Broadway in Manhattan's Upper West Side. has launched sales this week. The building was developed by Adam America, was designed by Eran Chan of ODA and unlike most new construction glass towers, it embraces the hallmarks of classic pre-war buildings. Since most of the Upper West Side’s classic architecture is made exclusively of brick masonry, ODA wanted to use this material to create the building’s facade so that it would be instantly woven into the fabric of the neighborhood. ODA aimed to elevate this heritage with custom long-format Petersen bricks, whose hand-molded fabrication in Denmark by eighth-generation brickmakers creates a richness in texture and character.

Each of the building's 44 residences is filled with natural light through oversized windows with historically inspired mullions that contrast the rich character of the masonry by adding crisp, sophisticated lines to the façade. Inside, marble, oak, and brass finishes were chosen to reinforce classical architectural elements. Select residences also feature private terraces. The residences are refined yet modern, and there is an array of forward-looking amenities such as a state-of-the-art gym with adjacent flexible space used as a sports court or movie theater, a pet spa, and an outdoor terrace overlooking the Hudson River.

Prices range from $1.5M for a one-bedroom to $4.9M for a four-bedroom.

532 West 20th Street is an intimate collection of only nine full-floor condominium residences emphasizing privacy and sanctuary in the center of West Chelsea’s influential gallery district, where neighbors include collector destinations such as David Zwirner, Gagosian, ACA, Tanya Bonakdar and Jack Shainman. Inspired by these surroundings, the building features a gallery-like exterior façade of exposed concrete and handmade, hand-laid bricks from Denmark’s Petersen Tegl.

"Today's luxury buyer in Manhattan is looking for larger living spaces, private outdoor areas and a more boutique lifestyle experience," said Joe McMillan, Founder, CEO and Chairman of DDG. "With only nine loft-like full-floor homes, private parking, direct elevator access and south-facing terraces for every home, 532 West 20th Street perfectly represents the desires of today’s discerning buyer. This rare new development in West Chelsea offers a discrete, truly bespoke residential sanctuary in New York's most culturally rich and architecturally distinct neighborhood."

From the private parking garage, residents have secure, direct elevator entry into their full-floor homes, each of which features a private south-facing terrace. The homes are ideal for buyers who desire privacy and discretion.

For 532 West 20th Street, Joe McMillan's DDG tapped frenchCALIFORNIA, who partnered with Magen H Gallery to curate an exhibition titled "The Collector: Le Gout Francais." FrenchCALIFORNIA outfitted the space with international mid-century and modern collectible design pieces with a particular focus on French post-war design, including pieces by Guillerme et Chambron, Pierre Chapo, Max Ingrand, Jacques Adnet, André-Aleth Masson and more.
