BLDG Management Co., Inc. and exclusive marketing agent, Corcoran New Development, are pleased to announce the launch of STELLA LES - a boutique luxury rental building that features a “club inspired” amenity offering. Located at 251 East 2nd Street – just north of Houston - new residents will have access to the best of the East Village and the Lower East Side, two of Manhattan’s most vibrant neighborhoods.
“When designing STELLA LES I wanted to create a building that respects the area’s rich heritage. In doing so, we researched important people and places that shaped the Lower East Side,” explained Lloyd Goldman, Founder and President of BLDG. “The actress and entrepreneur Stella Adler immediately stood out as an incredible woman with deep neighborhood roots. The more you learn about Adler, the more you want to sing her praises. She should be remembered for her talent, intelligence, and strength. I named our new building in her honor.”
Envisioned by architects Rotwein + Blake, the 10-story STELLA LES offers 44 one and two-bedroom apartments, many with private terraces. In addition, there is one coveted studio residence that leads to an oversized 244 sq. ft. outdoor terrace with BBQ grill. All homes feature oversized floor-to-ceiling windows with sunshades, white oak hardwood flooring, fully built-out custom closets, and in-unit washers and dryers. A ‘Latch’ entry system allows convenient yet secure apartment access via smartphone app, and Smart thermostats provide both comfort and energy efficiency.
Kitchens at STELLA LES are designed with a full suite of Bosch appliances and Scavolini custom cabinetry with under-cabinet LED lighting. The quartz countertops are both beautiful and durable, and electronics can be charged via the built-in UBS outlets. Residence baths are complete with modern white lacquer vanities, recessed LED-lit medicine cabinets, and luxurious showers with brushed-chrome faucets.
The club-like amenities provide STELLA LES residents beautiful spaces to connect and unwind. A state-of-the-art fitness center features equipment by Technogym with ample room for popular HIIT work outs and stretching. When it is time to relax, the penthouse lounge boasts a fireplace, large-screen television, billiards table, and hospitality kitchen.
This top-floor retreat flows out to a landscaped terrace with fire pit, BBQ grills, and lounge-style seating for exclusive use of residents and their guests. A surprising feature of the oasis is a custom putting green, and it is also is outfitted with a foosball table for hours of competition. Positioned on the 9th floor, the terrace provides uninterrupted spectacular 360 degree river, bridge and skyline views of the world’s greatest city.
Indoor public spaces such as the lobby, gym and the lounge are equipped with an ultra violet LED in-duct air purification system proactively treating the air in these areas by reducing airborne and surface contaminants and pollutants - including microbials, bacteria and viruses. Ultra violet devices can prevent viruses from circulating in the building while improving air quality for residents. One of the applications of this technology is ultraviolet germicidal irradiation in a building's HVAC system, a solution that BLDG chose when designing STELLA LES.
“STELLA LES is a much needed offering in a neighborhood where luxury rentals and amenities remain limited,” said Jodi Stasse, Executive Vice President of New Developments at The Corcoran Group. “The building’s façade and mid-rise height were designed to blend into the fabric of the neighborhood while standing out like a beautiful jewel box at night. Our interiors capture the Lower East Side’s unique and dynamic energy.”
Situated on Houston Street, where East 2nd Street meets Avenue C, STELLA LES is near multiple subway lines at the Second Avenue and Delancey Street stations. With proximity to public transit and a Citi Bike docking station on the corner, the entire city is within residents’ reach.
Rents at STELLA LES start at $3,255 for a studio, $3,590 for a one-bedroom, and $5,855 for a two-bedroom home. All pricing includes 2 months free on a 14-month lease and no fee. For more information, please visit www.stellales.com.
