Luxury rental-dog friendly??

Carnegie park is all dogs and kids

what is large. i think Grand Tier allows dogs up to 30lbs. But give them a call. Great building.

I don't know if you consider our blg luxury or even UWS, but it's at 9th and 59th, Brodskdy Bldg, "One Columbus Place" you can contact Brodsky directly and rent from them, no broker fee needed, and we've got Great Danes and Chihuaha's (SP?)

I heard that Brodsky building was either not allowing new dogs or limiting the size to something small.

Extremely tall order. I went through this this spring with Hollywood relos with a golden retriever. You're basically going to be limited to looking at townhouses and co-op sublets because the nice rental buildings won't let a big dog in, and -- sweepingly -- a lot of the condo sublets available aren't "very nice."

You can try some of the newer condo buildings that haven't yet sold out -- I put my clients in a brownstone on a park block on the UWS, but our back-up choice was the Sheffield (which I don't consider UWS, but it's at least dog-friendly and close to the park). On the UES you might take a look at owner rentals at the Laurel, for instance.

Feel free to ping me at ali [at] dgneary [dot] com if you want brokerage help -- I charge a fee but I think it's going to be tough for you to avoid paying one.

I guess it matters what you mean by "nice". We rent in a very nice pre-war UWS building and have a 75lb Golden Retriever. We consider "nice" to mean a museum block, 12 ft ceilings, and an apartment in good condition. If "nice" means gym in the building and concierge, then we fall slightly short.

I agree that it can be a challenge, since many buildings had a cut-off of 35 lbs or so... but our entire block is filled with large breed dogs.

I think La Rochelle (57 W 75th) accepts large dogs as do the rentals in The Harrison (205 W 76th).

I rent in a townhouse that was originally described as "no dogs."

I liked the place and asked the landlord if I could put up an extra month's security to assuage his concerns. Answer: yes.

One rental building that should fulfill your requirements is 211 East 70th Street. You can contact the building through the Rudin Management website.

There is a building on west 67th street that accepts doggies, especially those who bark with zzz's

nycmatt, r you done yet?

You didn't remind us about how much you can squat or about your yacht.

I'll check with management at One Columbus Place on size of pooch. We got a dog in diapers, one dog only has two front feet and a chariot harness for back feet, the obligatory three legged dog, there was a great dane with all kinds of genetic defects, down the hall we had two sheep looking dogs that were at least 65 lbs under the matting they wore. However, the curb in front of the bldg smells something fierce this time of the year, so white glove and fermeting dog pee smell have a strange juxtaposition.

Thank you all for your responses!! My dog is the friendliest of breeds, a Labradoodle-about 60 lbs
I'll look into all the suggestions. Problem with a lot of the East Side condo buildings is, owners can have dogs but renters can not. At least that was true with Trump Palace and The Savoy. Still hoping to find an owner rental in a condo bldg.

i actually have a great 1000sq ft loft 1 bedroom in a very very nice apt building near the UN. I have 2 boxers but have moved out. I am looking to rent as the sales market is not ideal. will do furnished oir unfurnished. what is your budget?

I just did a very perfunctory search of the database and quickly found several apartments, including a co-op sublet that simply asks the renter's pet to come in to meet the board to ensure friendliness. So the apartments are definitely out there.

Rents from $2200 to $3500 is what I checked. The Upper East Side has more big dog opportunities than the Upper West Side, as I've noticed before. 110 East End Ave, a rental building, is right by the Charles Shutz park, which is doggie heaven.

There shouldn't be any doggie curb smell if the staff deodorizes the sidewalk daily.

And Topper's advice is spot-on; you can always ask to pay an extra deposit for doggie. This can be screened over the phone.

My fee is 15% of one year's rent, reduced by any concessions I can get from the owner/landlord.

My budget is 3000 mo. I prefer a doorman building to a townhouse. I've only been looking west of 2nd ave and east of West End Ave, which narrows my options even further : (

One Columbus Place is 50 lb dog limit. You should check it out, 1 Bed's can be had under $3K and maybe at 60 lbs not a big issue. 50 lb limit was enacted in the last two years, so there still maybe some flexibility. Only 1 Avenue over to Columbus Cirlce and the Park.

15 Broad Street is very dog friendly. The majority of people there have dogs, dogs of all sizes. HUGE dogs. The elevator smells like wet dog. I KID YOU NOT. Was not a selling point for us...

KPGN,

Your budget of $3K for a doorman one-bedroom is a little low to use the words "luxury" and "very nice." You'll have to compromise somewhere -- either by looking for a studio in the crop of new condos (which are luxury and very nice) or focus on 1980s condos, which won't have the same standard of finishes but will have 1-BRs that fall within your price range.

Thank you all so much for the help!
Just found a fab prewar fully renovated 1 br condo on UWS, 3200 mo : ))

I have two cats and the whole bullshit when I rented with the extra security deposit and the pet fees the landlord is making a killing and then some just because I have pets.

So easy. Equity res, related, bldg, all allow large dogs.
