The Octagon at 888 Main St. #838

A beautifully modernized New York landmark, The Octagon is one of Manhattan’s greenest waterfront residences. Located one subway stop from Midtown on Roosevelt Island, enjoy fresh air, green space, and panoramic views of the East Side skyline. Unlike other properties in the neighborhood, The Octagon offers country club amenities without the country club dues—six tennis courts, a private waterfront swimming pool, and a 2,200-square-foot fitness center. The neighborhood is rife with riverfront promenades, parks, and bike paths. For those with kids, The Octagon provides an in-house daycare center by Bright Horizons.

The Octagon opened in 2006 and offers affordable, eco-friendly luxury living in the dramatic setting of an urban waterfront. Floor-to-ceiling-windows open to spectacular views of the New York skyline and allow natural sunlight to pour through every room. The kitchen’s smooth granite countertops and cherry cabinetry complement sleek stainless steel Energy Star appliances, while warm hardwood floors run throughout. Spacious studio, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, and 3-bedroom penthouse residences for rent.
