Hell’s Kitchen has gone from gritty to glitzy, with Hudson Yards and its newly constructed luxury real estate taking center stage, and attracting a whole new type of homebuyer to the neighborhood.

Up until recently, if you were searching for an affordable apartment for sale, Hell’s Kitchen was one of the best places to look. In fact, most things about Hell’s Kitchen are affordable, including dining, nightlife, and entertainment. But now, Hudson Yards is bringing a new level of apartment living to the neighborhood with its incredibly luxurious condos.

Buyers look at the neighborhood will also find that commuting is easier than ever, thanks to the extension of the 7 subway line.

Hell’s Kitchen is a simple neighborhood that has its roots in a 19th-century motorcycle gang, for which it’s named after. In that period of time, it wasn’t considered desirable to live in this area of town because of the gang’s presence and a generally unsafe feeling. However, the district has undoubtedly come a long way since then, with apartments for sale in Hell’s Kitchen selling for ever-rising prices. Some of the most desirable buildings in the neighborhood include The Sheffield, the Orion Condominium, The Atelier Condo, 15 Hudson Yards, and 35 Hudson Yards, where apartments are selling for sky-high prices.

In recent years, real estate developers and business owners have made the neighborhood far more family-friendly and appealing.
