This apartment's rent is 124.72% more expensive than the median rent of $8,900 for a 3-bedroom apartment in Midtown, New York, NY.

The median is solely based on the area and the number of bedrooms. Listing-specific characteristics such as the number of bathrooms and the amenities will also impact the price.

The apartment is a unit offered at a monthly price of $20,000. One of the key perks is the building doorman. Both cats and dogs are allowed, but as always, double check with the manager about any specific pet concerns you may have.
