Property Manager

When most think of Lincoln Square their mind immediately goes to Lincoln Center, home to some of the world’s best operas, ballets, and of course, the New York Philharmonic. But this Upper West Side enclave is also a bustling residential neighborhood, not just a global tourist attraction. The Element, a 35-story, glass-clad high-rise, was one of the first major residential developments in the area when it was completed in 2007, which gave way to several other new builds in the neighborhood. Designed by SLCE Architects, the reflective glass tower features a series of setback, varied terraces, and contains 186 residences, many of which offer views of the Hudson River and surrounding cityscape.

Element is a condominium located in Manhattan and the 10023 ZIP Code. This area is served by the Manhattan County attendance zone.
