Yorkville Painters

 The Yorkville neighborhood of Manhattan hugs the East River on the east and rests an easy couple blocks walking to Park Avenue. Gracie Mansion, the official home of the mayor, is in Yorkville, along with Carl Schurz Park and the 92nd Street Y. Papaya King, which opened in 1932, is still serving up grilled hot dogs and tropical drinks. High-rise condo buildings offer classy, contemporary cribs, and we recently painted one of these.

 A coat of paint does wonders for any interior space (or exterior), and savvy property managers and homeowners who rent out their properties know this well. Thus, we waltzed into one of these Upper East Side condos in between tenants to spruce up the walls. The paint choice was Pink Damask OC-72 from Benjamin Moore’s Off-White Color collection. These walls will wow any prospective tenant for their light, neutral, quietly sophisticated allure. It’s the perfect, serene background for any style of art, décor, fabrics and furnishings.

NYC Rental Preparation

Riverside Drive is aptly named for hugging the shoreline of the Hudson River in Manhattan. Homeowners and property managers here are meticulous about their properties, and this high-rise condo was being prepared for the rental market. The dark walls were a bit foreboding, and the white walls were kind of beat up and uneven. After removing the light attached to one black wall, we patched the damage, spackled and smoothed all the walls and finished everything with lustrous white coats of paint. The landlord was very pleased and is moving forward to advertise and show this radiant, attractive rental condominium.
