While many hospitals are still located in the area, Kips Bay is moving on from its history as “Bedpan Alley” as a residential renaissance begins to take hold. The latest entrant is Hillrose28, a 20-story condominium on the corner of Third Avenue and East 28th Street with a pale limestone facade and narrow balconies. Construction is in its later stages, and sales have launched on the 43 units within.
An offering plan with a sellout price of $101 million was approved at the end of last year. To that end, current availabilities start at $1.315 million for one-bedrooms and $2.225 million for two-bedrooms. Additionally, a three-bedroom penthouse with a large private terrace is listed for $5.375 million.
