This $4,895 "two-bedroom" at 400 Chambers Street in Battery Park City is actually a one-bedroom with a home office, according to the floorplan, but the building, known as Tribeca Park, has all the trimmings.

Some of our most popular posts here on Brick dwell on the difference "real" New Yorkers vs. the stereotypes ("15 ways to tell a real New Yorker from a poser" and "16 things I have learned since moving to Manhattan" among them).

Four-bedrooms apartments in NYC are pretty rare, so if you have a big family (and want to live in a condo with all the amenities), this $5,599/month condo rental in Harlem might be right for you. 

Pros: The 1600-square-foot penthouse apartment has 15 windows, a private terrace, a fireplace, an ultra-modern kitchen and a master bedroom with a walk-in closet. There's even a wine refrigerator and an in-unit washer/dryer.
