All of the luxury and none of the commitment (The Carlyle via Douglas Elliman)
Staying in New York for only a short time is no reason not to stay in style. At least, that seems to be the mind-set of an ultra-niche, ultra-rich demographic. For them, the city is home to a set of fabulously luxurious apartments in amenity-rich addresses for over $80,000, or roughly 23 times the median New York City rent of $3,500/month (per CityRealty listings).
Those running the numbers will notice that this comes to an average of $17,000 per day. However, it is worth noting that these units often come fully furnished with high-end pieces and allowing access to all amenities and white-glove services.
