Hi All! Due with my first in 2015! DH and I are looking for a large 1BR or 2BR in Manhattan. Any good recommendations for apartment buildings to consider with baby-friendly amenities (ie, ideally a doorman, easy entrance for strollers, large enough size for a moderate budget ideally at $4200-$5000/month)? Ideal neighborhoods would be FlatIron, NoMad, Chelsea, Greenwich Village, Union Square, and UWS. Thanks in advance!
The Chelsea Landmark, Chelsea Centro, The Caroline, The Tate, The Art (all Chelsea/Flatiron). A 2 bdrm in that price range is tough to find in the neighborhood, but you can get a very nice and large 1 bdrm in that range. I would think an older pre-war building on the UWS that still has the amenities you're looking for might be more likely to have a 2 bdrm in the $5k range. Hope that helps!

London Terrace Gardens is wonderful. The one bedrooms are large (by Manhattan standards) and they have all of the amenities you're looking for. Neighborhood is Chelsea, just 2 blocks from Chelsea Pier and half a block from the High Line.
