Stuyvesant Town Apartments For Rent

Stuyvesant Town (or more formally Stuyvesant Town-Peter Cooper Village), is a massive residential development known to its residents and New Yorkers simply as “Stuy Town.” This residential community, which is known for its no-fee apartment rentals and family-friendly vibe, is located on Manhattan’s east side, spanning the blocks from East 14th and East 23rd streets between 1st Ave and Avenue C. 
Stuy Town was initially planned as a post-war housing project in response to the city’s housing crisis and opened to residents in the late 1940s, with preference given to applicants who were veterans. The neighborhood has a tight-knit community and maintains its own newspaper as well as a bevy of amenities and facilities that are available to all residents, including a gym, lounge, playgrounds, and basketball courts. Stuy Town is known for its relatively attractive rents compared to other Manhattan neighborhoods, as well as its abundant supply of no-fee rental apartments. This, along with the area’s residential feel, has made the neighborhood popular with renters looking for good deals on spacious, pet-friendly apartments located in a quiet neighborhood that maintains a bit of a sleepy college-town vibe. While it’s tough to describe the apartments for rent in Stuy-Town as being cheap, they are certainly more affordable than what you’d find elsewhere in Lower Manhattan.
