Sometimes the best views of New York can be seen from New Jersey, and that is certainly the case at this Newport studio with oversized windows. A lush rooftop deck also takes advantage of the sweeping skyline and harbor views. The building is in the heart of a thriving waterfront community, and the nearby PATH and ferry provide an easier commute than some parts of the city.

With its stunning views, well laid out apartments, and extensive amenities package, it is not surprising that Avalon Riverview North is on CityRealty’s list of top 10 LIC rentals. The attended, pet-friendly building overlooks the Gantry State Park, East River, and east side skyline. Amenities include a roof deck, fitness center, pool, sun deck, and lounge (to name just a few!), and the building is one stop away from Grand Central.

According to Carter Horsley, the stepped and faceted profile of the buildings at Waterside Plaza gives every apartment spectacular views. This model of urban design also offers an attended garage, day spa, three-level health club with an indoor pool, and the city’s largest roof garden overlooking panoramic water views. It attracts young professionals of all industries to a community and not just a complex.
