Public transportation is crucial to the lives of New Yorkers, which may be why three Chelsea apartments on this week's Hot Dozen -- the 12 rental apartments Streeteasy.com visitors clicked on most often over the past seven days -- are located less than a block from the closest subway stop.
A studio at 170 West 23rd Street and 7th Avenue is listed at $2,500/month and has no broker fee. The apartment is located in a luxury building in the heart of Chelsea and is on the same block as the 1, F and M trains. The apartment also has a small Juliet balcony.
A junior one-bedroom apartment at 221 West 28th Street and Seventh Avenue is listed at $1,895/month and is also available as a short term rental. Not only is the apartment located steps from the 1 train, it's also only a short walk from transportation hub Penn Station. The walk-up building has a live-in super and Virtual Doorman. Note: It's been on the market for almost 2 months.
You are about 10 hours too late to rent this two-bedroom apartment at 240 West 15th Street and Eighth Avenue, whcih was listed at $2,995/month with no broker fee. The apartment was less than 500 feet from the A, C, E, and L trains and on the edge of the West Village, increasing the food, shopping, and nightlife options just outside your (would be) door.

If the apartment you like requires a guarantor that you don't have, see if the landlord accepts Insurent, a great solution from one of BrickUnderground's sponsors.
