Still plenty of room to fall, because there's plenty of competition:

$3,100 2-Bedroom at The Carteret
$4,495 2-Bedroom at Chelsea Centro
$4,500 2-Bedroom at 21 Chelsea
$4,638 2-Bedroom at Chelsea Centro
$4,695 2-Bedroom at The Capitol
$4,966 2-Bedroom at Chelsea Centro
$5,300 2-Bedroom at London Terrace Gardens
$5,330 2-Bedroom at Casa: 155 West 21 Street
$5,400 2-Bedroom at The Capitol
$5,400 2-Bedroom at London Terrace Gardens
$5,526 2-Bedroom at Casa: 155 West 21 Street

$7,195 2-Bedroom at The Sierra
$7,595 2-Bedroom at The Westminster
$7,695 2-Bedroom at The Westminster
$8,055 2-Bedroom at Archstone Chelsea

The Archstone ones will be the last to fall (as their vacancy rate rises) because it was owned by Lehman, bought at the height of the boom.

Unlike otehr landlords in Chelsea, Rockrose refuses to re-negotiate leases or give concessions to current tenants. They are real pigs. Rockrose deserves to get slaughtered.

let me know when Glenwood gets on board. Their prices are still out of control...BUT listings are up. I guess it's just a matter of time now.

bguy - are they cutting only for vacancies or are they also adjusting downwards for current lease renewals?

Wow, a 2 bed for $2600. Is it real?

No, Rockrose will advertise 1 bedrooms as "two." You need to check on the Rockrose site itself and see how many BATHROOMS it has.

sorry, spoke too soon. That is a tenement bldg. So it could be real, but on the fifth floor. Still one bath, though. What I said about rockrose is true, though. Always click on the floor plan with them.
