This bedroom is bright now, but blackout shades make for a peaceful night's sleep. (53 West 53, #16E - Douglas Elliman)

From Great Listings Ahead of the return of Daylight Saving Time, see listings with blackout shades in the bedrooms

By CityRealty Staff Thursday, March 9, 2023

On Sunday, March 12, much of the country returns to Daylight Saving Time at 2:00 a.m. This means later sunsets and more light in the evenings going forward, but after losing an hour of sleep the night that the time change happens. Fortunately, there are a number of measures people can take to enhance their sleep quality, even in the city that never sleeps. Blackout shades block out a significant amount of light, and these listings throughout New York come pre-equipped with them.
