If you believe the movies, the typical day in the life of a New Yorker is filled with picturesque walks through parks, surrounded by exciting nightlife, high-end restaurants, and moments of quiet repose or conversations with friends in perfectly appointed apartments. This aspirational vision of New York living is an everyday reality at the East Village rentals at EVBG. Residents enjoy a combination of luxury amenities at home, along with proximity to some of the most dynamic and liveliest destinations and restaurants New York has to offer.

Each morning, residents wake in generously proportioned bedrooms with oversized windows that let light and fresh air pour in. Coffee and breakfast are a breeze to prepare and savor in the open-space chef’s kitchen—or on gracious private balconies, terraces, or garden backyards in select residences. For a virtuous start to the working day, the two-level fitness center and indoor saltwater pool offer an opportunity to get buff or zone out the world with another rejuvenating lap in the water. After working out, a few minutes sweating it out and relaxing muscles in the steam room provide a refreshed outlook for the day.

Living at EVBG also means there’s no shortage of bars and restaurants to suit any craving or mood. For an after-work drink, the Sake Bar Decibel offers one of the city’s most extensive selections of sake, while crafting the perfect cocktail is the modus operandi at nearby Pouring Ribbons, Please Don’t Tell, and Mace. For a tried-and-true dive bar, Lucy’s and Doc Holliday’s both offer a reliable pitcher in a comfortingly low-fi atmosphere. And for craft brew fans, Augurs Well Bar and Upstate Craft Beer & Oyster Bar both offer bustling happy hours along with an ever-changing selection of new brews.

The East Village restaurant scene near EVGB features fine dining options, including everything from Michelin-star gems like Momofuku Ko, Tuome, Kanoyama, and Papilles to basement-level Punjabi Grocery & Deli, which offers satisfying chaat and curries, and Bobwhite Counter, which serves up what foodies argue are the best fried chicken sandwiches in the city—all for less than a typical fast-food meal. The neighborhood’s diversity extends to its countless other restaurant offerings, which span from Korean meals at popular haunts like Oiji to the beloved LHASA Tibetan Restaurant and Ukrainian stalwarts like Veselka.

Of course, EVGB residents can always dine in or enjoy a nightcap from the 19,000-square-foot roof deck while taking in sweeping views of Lower Manhattan. This unparalleled amenity space in these NYC rentals offers alfresco dining areas with grilling stations and fire pits for year-round comfort, as well as lounging areas. Entertaining guests with the bocce court and putting green or the outdoor screening area is a fitting way to show off the best of New York City living while appreciating all the comforts associated with the super-stylish homes at EVGB.
