NY Post describes the neighborhood's Price Points
One part "Breakfast at Tiffany's," one part "Animal House," Yorkville attracts the post-college set with its cheap rents.
That's how the NY Post described Yorkville in Lisa Key's Price Points article this month.
And what is the price point? $1,600 - $2,000 to rent a walkup and $2,750 to $3,000 for the luxury of a doorman building.
