Judging by the page views on Jenifer Aniston’s potential condo purchase in the neighborhood, I thought many of you would like to know that the New York Post reports that actors Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively were in our neighborhood checking out a 3 bedroom condo on Madison Square Park at the Grand Madison (225 5th Avenue @ 26th Street).
For those who follow this stuff, according to amNewYork, Jennifer Anniston is in contract on a beautiful 3 bedroom apartment overlooking Gramercy Park at 21st Street and Lexington.
It’s rumored to be the 50 Madison North building (also home to the Gramercy Park Hotel) designed by John Pawson and Ian Schrager.
This is not the first Jennifer Aniston real estate purchase rumor at a building, so take it with a grain of salt until the sale closes and is recorded by the city.
To see the floorplan and photos of the unit, check out www.50gramercyparknorth.com/residences_floor_9b.html or www.elliman.com/new-york-city/manhattan/gramercy/50-gramercy-park-north–9b/50-gramercy-park-north/fvjcvei.

Apparently Bachelorette Ashley Hebert told People Magazine that when she comes to New York, her first stop with her dog is Madison Square Park, seemingly to get some dog treats from the Shake Shack.
“Hebert already knows where she wants to take Boo in the Big Apple – Madison Square Park for dog treats – and what the pooch will be like on the sidewalks of the city: “She just loves everyone. She’s such a friendly dog. I can’t wait to walk her around New York.” (People)
There is a new and very large sports bar in the Flatiron called Bounce Sporting Club (55 West 21st Street between 5th and 6th Avenue). It opened last week and features 4000 square feet of space to watch 30 HD TVs for game watching. They also have a full bar with drinks from mixologist Charlotte Voisey, and restaurant menu with gourmet burgers, sliders, wings, and more.
It was also immediately named top sports bar in New York City by Haute Living. Not a bad first week!
We haven’t been there yet for a game, but will check it out soon. Give them a call at 212-776-1997 to see if your game is on.
