One Manhattan Square Residents Receive Ultimate Shopping Amenity
Extell Development Company— a full-service real estate developer of residential, commercial and hospitality properties — announced today a partnership with Avo, a Kleiner Perkins and Y Combinator backed private online personal shopping and delivery service start-up. Avo will provide residents of One Manhattan Square, a luxury condominium, access to free, same-day delivery of thousands of products. Located on the Lower East Side Waterfront, OneManhattan Square features over 100,000 square feet of private indoor and outdoor amenities. The homes also showcase 360-degree views of the New YorkCity waterways and its most iconic landmarks.
Facilitated through Experience by Extell — the developer’s in-house lifestyle management service — Avo will provide residents with free, same-day delivery of products ranging from groceries, electronics, household goods, personal care items, pet products and more. With no minimum order requirements, no delivery is too big or too small.
“We have always been committed to providing our residents with thoughtful amenities and services that genuinely speak to their needs,” said Rebeca Park of Extell Management Services. “Even more so today, we are compelled to offer a safe and seamless living experience and our exclusive partnership with Avo will provide just that for our residents.”
Since entering the New York market one year ago, Avo has mainly focused on servicing commercial office buildings; however, COVID-19 presented a unique opportunity for the company to accelerate its residential plans, starting with One Manhattan Square. Residents can order whatever items they need at the custom branded One Manhattan Square online store 24/7 and enjoy free, same-day, contactless delivery to the building, with orders arriving in custom building branded bags. Extell Development Company plans to expand this service to its other condominiums and rental buildings within its portfolio.
“Our company provides a unique service that has become invaluable during today’s changing times,” said Jonathan Pelosi, Chief Revenue Officer of Avo. “Extell is an industry leader in recognizing the importance of this service and forming a partnership for its residents. We are thrilled to bring Avo to this amazing building and provide residents with an added level of convenience and comfort.”
Pioneering a new era of luxury on the Lower East Side, One Manhattan Square is an urban oasis with architecture by Adamson Associates Architects, complemented by custom interiors by Meyer Davis Studio. All of the residences, ranging from one- to three-bedrooms, are positioned to maximize panoramic skyline views. The building is surrounded by some of the city’s finest dining, shopping and cultural destinations including the newly reimagined South Street Seaport, Essex Crossing and the East River Esplanade.
Last month, Extell announced price incentives on new contracts signed at One Manhattan Square in response to global conditions related to COVID-19. For a limited time, the remaining inventory at the luxury development will be discounted, some up to 20 percent. The building also offers an attractive 20-year tax abatement and low common charges.This new pricing discount is for a limited time and only applicable to new contracts executed after May 1, 2020.
In an effort to accommodate the changing real estate landscape, The Extell Marketing Team, the exclusive sales and marketing firm for One Manhattan Square,is fully equipped and available to accommodate virtual sales appointments. The sales team can offer prospective buyers a virtual look inside the building with tours of the residences, views, finishes, floor plans and amenities.
