Looking to enjoy the ultimate in New York City charm? Take a stroll down Leroy Street sometime. No other avenue better epitomizes the West Village’s undeniable beauty or inventive energy. From the row houses of St. Luke’s Place on its eastern edge to the majesty of the Hudson River at its western perimeter, this is a cobblestoned stretch of Lower Manhattan sure to leave an indelible impression on all who savor its elegance.
Though a total newcomer, 111 Leroy, developed by Property Markets Group (PMG) and marketed by Douglas Elliman Development Marketing, seems an ideal fit for the storied milieu. The exclusive collection of residences at 111 Leroy pays respectful homage to the past, while showcasing new construction’s potential at its most thoughtful.

Outside, its stylishly restrained yet refined grey brick façade showcases irregular brick patterns and varying window widths, a knowing tribute the enclave’s individuality. Inside, an artfully simple lobby leads to a baker’s dozen of one-of-a-kind residences delivering privacy, exclusivity and comfort. They feature open, loft-like floor plans, towering ceilings and oversized picture windows, with terraces enhancing select residences.

This focus on craft created a boutique luxury development that feels at home alongside the historic vernacular on Leroy Street and provides not often available access to contextually relevant modern living presented at the highest level.”
