Fall in New York is a time of transition and discovery—the shift to cooler weather makes the air crisp and the promise of the indoors more cozy. At the East Village luxury rentals at EVGB, you can still tend your terrace garden with a cup of tea or sit by a fire pit at the rooftop lounge and admire the skyline in the glistening air. But, thanks to an impressive lineup of amenities, the season’s turn inward will open up an indoor playground of possibilities to serve health, wellness, and playtime needs for both adults and kids—all through the winter.

Get to know your neighbors at the residents’ lounge, which is fully equipped with a bar, kitchen, and cafe-style seating. This is a great place to gather for game night, a cooking demo, or a sit-down dinner everyone cooks together. It’s also a cozy destination for relaxing with a drink any night of the week, and you can visit it without leaving your building.

The kids will have a chance to make friends and let their imaginations run wild in the dedicated children’s playroom. They can climb, make puppets and put on a puppet show, draw and paint, build a fort or a reading nook, and set up decorations for Halloween and the coming holidays.

In the two-story gym and fitness center, you have everything you would wish for in a local gym—without ever having to face the cold. Choose from state-of-the-art treadmills, stationary bikes, and weightlifting machines to get your heart pumping and your muscles toned. For the most luxurious winter relief, take a swim in the indoor saltwater pool, complete with lockers and spa-like locker rooms. The elegant calm of the pool deck, with its comfy lounge chairs where you can rest or read after your swim, will make the entire pool area into a place of refreshment and sanctuary. Follow your laps with a visit to the steam room to clear out toxins and find mental and physical equilibrium.

At the end of the day, one of the best locations to discover your East Village version of hygge is your apartment itself, where your well-equipped kitchen will beckon you to keep a pot of soup simmering, while you relax with a steaming cup of oolong tea, which you can stock up on at Tea Drunk, a local gem for the most authentic Chinese teas just steps from your East Village apartment.
