This Week's Prewar Spotlight Lands on Kips Bay

Curbed's latest roundup of New York City's most worthwhile apartment listings turns this week to Kips Bay, the Manhattan neighborhood built up largely in prewar apartment houses. The outlet's case for the area rests on that prewar stock itself — the ceiling heights, the layouts, the kind of detail a "triple-threat" unit still delivers at Kips Bay prices. It is the sort of pick worth noting on these terms: a neighborhood argued for on the buildings' own merits, not a marquee address.
