    Anchored by the historic South Street Seaport and the canyoned streets around Fulton Center, 10038 blends cobblestone charm with glassy high-rises and East River breezes. Expect four true seasons, with crisp winters, humid summers, and salty air that keeps things a touch cooler along the piers. Many professionals and a growing mix of families call it home; the area is broadly pet friendly, with the Fishbridge Park dog run, Imagination Playground, and nearby City Hall Park for green breaks. Daily living is easy: groceries at Jubilee Market Place and the Tin Building food hall, coffee at Black Fox, Blue Bottle, and Joe Coffee, workouts at Blink and Crunch, and retail at Fulton Center and the Oculus just west. Dining and nightlife orbit Pier 17 and The Beekman, from The Fulton to Temple Court, with waterfront strolls and seasonal concerts on the rooftop. Transit is a breeze via the A C J Z 2 3 4 5 and R W lines at Fulton Center and ferries from Pier 11. According to Zillow’s Rental Manager market trends in recent months, the median asking rent hovers in the mid $4,000s, with most listings roughly $3,800 to $7,500 depending on size and amenities.
