Owning a pet in New York City can be challenging – Will they get enough outdoor space? Who is going to walk them when you are putting in long work days? Will the building I want to live in even allow pets? As more and more New Yorkers get pets, these questions have become ever more important for Developers looking to attract well-off city dwellers. So, are the amenities going to the dogs? Yes – but in the best way possible!
If you are looking to ensure your dog is living its best life, there are buildings across Manhattan that are offering your canine companion the best of the best when it comes to amenities and services. The buildings below, of course, allow residents to have pets, but the first step in searching for a home in New York when you have a pet is letting your Broker know. Some buildings do not allow pets at all, while some only allow cats, or have some restrictions related to size and breed.
We’ve rounded up some of the buildings with the best Pet Amenities across town-
Waterline Square
The Starchitect-designed Waterline Square project features a host of amenities, of which lavish pet amenities are included. The good news is, whether you choose to live in One, Two, or Three Waterline Square (perhaps based on your preference for architects including Richard Meier, Kohn Pederson Fox, or Raphael Vinoly), you will have access to the Waterline Club which includes over 100,000 square feet of amenities.
For your four-legged friend, the Waterline Club will offer an indoor playroom for dogs to socialize as well as a dog washing salon and dog training studio.
50 West Street
Rising tall above lower Manhattan at 778 feet, 50 West Street is a new development glass tower that arrived with the wave of revitalization happening Downtown. While residents will enjoy stunning River and Harbor views from the homes as well as luxe amenities for themselves, pets will be able to enjoy a dedicated amenity space as well – 200 square feet for the pets to be exact.
Additionally, 50 West has partnered with a top-notch Vet and Groomer so you don’t have to worry about where to take your pet. They will make house calls right to the building. Rumor has it the Groomer is the same one that fashion designer Isaac Mizrahi uses.
