Whether you want to be in the heart of Manhattan or nestled in cozy Brooklyn Heights, Educational Housing Services has a room for you. With five buildings in the best neighborhoods of NYC, you are sure to find something that exceeds your expectations and gives you the city experience you’ve always imagined. Uncertainty is okay! That’s why we put together some highlights of all five locations so students and interns just like you can choose housing that best suits your needs.
St. George Towers
The St. George residence sits right in the middle of historic Brooklyn Heights, one of the most sought-after neighborhoods for young professionals looking for more laid-back city life. Living at the St. George puts you within a minute walking distance of the 2/3, 4/5, A, C and R trains, giving you easy access to anywhere you need to go. While there are plenty of transportation options, with the East River, Brooklyn Bridge, and DUMBO a short walk away, you may never want to leave the neighborhood. Surrounded by beautiful rows of brownstones, a variety of parks, and the common celebrity sightings, we can understand the urge to stay in the area and soak up the Brooklyn Heights life.
John Street
Want to live in the most historic part of New York City? The John Street residence sits in the middle of the Financial District, surrounded by cobblestone streets, fine dining (and delicious cheap options), and the rich history of Wall Street. With endless shopping options like South Street Seaport, The Oculus, or Brookfield Place, you have anything you could want at your fingertips. With some of the most Instagram-worthy locations, you’re sure to make friends and family envious of your time in New York.
New Yorker
In the heart of Manhattan, living at the famous New Yorker residence puts you steps away from Penn Station, Madison Square Garden, Times Square, and so much more. If those aren’t enough, you’ll have easy access to the subway and the Amtrak to go uptown, downtown, Long Island, and everywhere in between. With views of the Empire State Building right from the common areas, you’ll get to watch the hustle and bustle of the city and truly live the life of a New Yorker.
Cooper Square
Located in the East Village, The Cooper Square residence is surrounded by a charming neighborhood feel combined with fast-paced city life, giving you the best of both worlds. Whether you are looking for a quiet meal on a charming outdoor patio, or a shopping day in SoHo, the East Village has it all. After a long day, give yourself a rest and head up to the wrap-around terrace to put your feet up while soaking in the picturesque view.
Marymount
Want to live close to The Museum of Modern Art, Rockefeller Center, and Radio City Music Hall? The Marymount residence is perfect for you. Located in Midtown East, you’ll have easy access to some of NYC’s most famous landmarks. It’s not every day that you can step out your front door and walk to one of the most well-known museums in the world, see a birds-eye view of NYC from the Top of the Rock, and still have time to grab dinner with friends. Midtown East is a treasure trove of fun things to do and a great place to take advantage of all NYC has to offer.
