Where to live if you want your pets' Wagyu beef shipments held in cold storage

The Suffolk, one of the Essex Crossing complex’s newishly built, full-service luxury buildings located at 55 Suffolk Street, between Broome and Grand Street. Positioned as “eclectic yet refined” — like, artsy and hip but with sharp, clean edges — The Suffolk offers units ranging from studios to three-bedroom layouts , all designed with high-quality materials, floor-to-ceiling windows , and a “Did you buy that at Pottery Barn?” aesthetic .

The Suffolk offers an impressive amenity package that functions as an extension of residents’ homes . Building amenities include a 24-hour attended lobby , personal concierge services , a rooftop pool and sundeck , BBQs and private dining terrace , a fitness club and yoga studio , firepits and lounge seating , resident lounges and co-working spaces , conference rooms and work pods , a game room , demonstration kitchen , a Zen garden , a package room with cold storage , bicycle storage , resident storage , pet-friendly policies with no pet fee, an exclusive resident mobile app , resident event programming through the Gotham Living platform, and neighborhood perks via the Gotham Card .

Wow, that’s a lot of commas .

But, wait: there’s one more!

A common laundry room . Wah-wah .

With all of that on tap, the last thing I want to do is share a washer with other people’s shirts that have yoga sweat and BBQ stains on them . (Just kidding: I already share washers with people whose clothes are far grosser .)

I happened on unit 1112 , listed via LeaseBreak: it’s a three-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment . The apartment is unfurnished, features a northern exposure , and provides natural light and open city views . The kitchen is finished with quartz countertops and modern detailing , while the bathrooms feature custom porcelain tile, quartz counters, and vanity mirrors . The apartment includes an in-unit washer and dryer — hooray, no need to visit the common laundry — and comes with a complimentary building club membership . Take a tour of 1112 here

Any guesses for what this rental runs monthly?

That’s right, it’s $11,195 per month with immediate availability . Upon approval, tenants are responsible for the first month’s rent and one month’s security deposit , with a reduced $1,000 security deposit available to qualifying applicants . (This is likely a function of credit-worthiness .) There are no moving fees and no broker fee , and monthly utilities — electricity , cable , and internet — are to be paid by the tenant. Optional monthly add-ons include:

• $100/month: Amenity fee; no more details, sorry

• $500/month: Seasonal pool ; that’s per person

• $100-150/month: Storage ; bike storage is included, though

The Suffolk currently lists a selection of other available residences . Here’s a selection of them:

• Residence 518 (Studio, 1BA) offered at $4,081 per month

• Residence 1203 (Studio, 1BA) offered at $4,755 per month

• Residence 1013 (2BR, 2BA) offered at $8,582 per month

• Residence 2101 (2BR, 2BA) offered at $9,395 per month

Building marketers will tout its proximity to the train , Essex Crossing , and LES bars and such. But, I think the best proximity prize is being steps away from Grand Street Pizza .
