When the annual March Madness college basketball tournament rolls around (March 19-April 8 this year), some people find themselves eager to relive their glory days and get back in the game. Meanwhile, others are more interested in making a party of watching the games with friends. At the following buildings throughout Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens, renters and homeowners alike don't have to choose, but can even pop into a game fresh off the court.
Condos

The three soaring, starchitect-designed towers comprising Waterline Square each have their own private amenities, which include lounges ideal for hosting gatherings like game viewing parties. However, the buildings are also connected by The Waterline Club, a luxurious, 100,000-square-foot space with amenities designed to cater to every interest and hobby. These include a full-sized basketball court for athletes of all stripes and a screening room for those who'd rather watch.

Elsewhere in the building, a screening room with plush seats is ideal for watching the big game in both comfort and style.
