On Friday, March 11th, Emily Beare hosted 50 brokers at 199 Mott Street, 2 to discuss the future of boutique condominiums. Leading names in New York City’s boutique condominiums came together to discuss the projects that epitomize the city, the ever-evolving real estate market and what’s next for New York City’s neighborhoods. CORE’s Director of New Development, Tim Crowley, led the lively and insightful discussion amongst the three panelists. Here are some highlights:
Shawn Katz, KUB Capital – notable projects include Wythe Lane, 150 Wooster Street and 253 Pacific Street:
Jon Kully, FLANK – notable projects include 224 Mulberry Street, The Boerum, 385 West 12th Street, 441 East 57th Street and The Abington:
Roy Stillman, Stillman Development – notable projects include The Schumacher at 36 Bleecker Street, The Centurion and The Metropolitan:
Overall, all panelists agreed that boutique condominium projects are distinctly unique in that they invite a more personal buying experience than a larger development. Put best by Roy Stillman, “Something that’s the center of the bull’s eye deserves special treatment…Because of the low unit count, we can know our buyers better and provide them that same special treatment.”
