New commute, new demand: NYC Ferry fuels housing boom on the waterfront

By Dana Schulz

It’s been eight years since the city’s first commuter ferry set sail, and in that time, it’s completely transformed the way New Yorkers think about real estate. "The NYC Ferry has absolutely shifted the real estate landscape, especially in pockets of the city that weren’t always considered commuter-friendly," says Michelle Griffith, luxury real estate broker at Douglas Elliman. "Eight years ago, some of the waterfront neighborhoods like Red Hook or certain areas of the Rockaways felt much more remote. But once the ferry became a reliable commuting option, we started seeing renewed interest from buyers and renters who wanted that lifestyle balance: scenic, slightly quieter neighborhoods with direct access to Manhattan."

Asking $9.5M, this Upper East Side carriage house was once Mark Rothko’s studio

Situated on East 69th Street’s historic "stable row," this unique Romanesque Revival carriage house at 155 East 69th Street has a storied past and an unusual configuration.

Asking $9,500,000, the property contains a not-for-profit foundation and a stunning private residence. Standout features include an elevator and a private garage.

For $3.75M, this ‘secret’ 1850s carriage house is hidden away in a private courtyard just blocks from Times Square

The 1850s carriage house co-op at 422 West 46th Street, known as The Carriage House at Clinton Court, is one of New York City's enchanting secrets, hidden in plain sight–in this case, literally blocks from Times Square. The building's lower floors, where you'll find this duplex unit asking $3,750,000, were once home to horses and carts between their rounds delivering milk to local residents. From the street, through the narrow sliver that was the original horse passage, enter a mid-block courtyard that feels more like the French Quarter in New Orleans than Midtown Manhattan. What's more, according to Untapped Cities, the property isn't merely enchanting–it's haunted.
