No-Fee Apartment of the Week: $5,850 TriBeCa two-bedroom

By Lucy Cohen Blatter | July 27, 2012 - 2:07PM

We have a confession to make -- we love TriBeCa. Maybe that's why this $5,850 two-bedroom, two-bath is so appealing, despite its steep price tag. Also, the family-sized apartment is located in one of the best school districts in the city, so for families with school-age children (fyi there's a park just 2 blocks away) it might be worth shelling out the extra cash.

Pros: The luxury rental building's got all the trimmings --- gym, doorman playroom... and there's a Whole Foods downstairs! The apartments have high-end appliances (washer-dryer included) and floor-to-ceiling windows, and it's owned and managed by the highly regarded Related Companies.

Cons: Aside from the price tag (which is often the major con in these no-fee apartments), not much that we can see. Some people might not love being in such a commercial/busy building, as in addition to Whole Foods, there's a Bed, Bath & Beyond and Barnes & Noble downstairs, too.
