T H E AV E N U E C O L L E C T I O N : 1 2 0 0 AV E N U E AT P O RT I M P E R I A L , W E E H AW K E N , N J The Avenue Collection describes itself as a new generation of chic condominium living that blends a modern, urban lifestyle with hotel- inspired amenities. With the first boutique, 74-unit building sold out, Lennar is currently selling residences at the 103-unit 1200 Avenue at Port Imperial. On the seventh floor, the Skyline Social Room features a lounge space, catering kitchen, bar, multiple gathering areas with a fireplace, sound system and televisions; an internet lounge and more — all set against the stunning backdrop of the New York City skyline. Let's remember a "roof" deck doesn't always have to be on the top floor. Outside, a dramatic third-floor landscaped plaza offers an expansive open-air space that includes a sun shelf swimming pool, sun deck with outdoor showers, pool house with catering bar and restrooms, open lawn and garden spaces with multiple seating areas, and a fire pit with motorized shade trellis. I t's clear why living the city life is gaining more traction among the young professional buyer market. Exquisite form and superb functionality allow professionals to live with ease and these fabulous outdoor community spaces allow them to do that without compromising their desire for the outdoors. You can be in Manhattan in a matter of minutes, and more importantly, be home with your loved ones quickly at the end of the work day. Some say we will always have the need for the suburban lifestyle at some point during our lives, and these luxury communities are devoted to helping their residents achieve that balance right along New Jersey's Gold Coast.
