September 9th, 2025 — The Dylan, a meticulously reimagined luxury rental community by Skye Development, has officially opened its doors for leasing. Once a historic schoolhouse, the building has been transformed into 31 refined residences that merge preserved architectural character with contemporary sophistication. The Marketing Directors serves as the exclusive marketing and leasing agent for the property.
Historic Character Meets Contemporary Comfort
The Dylan offers a rare combination of heritage and modernity. Original architectural elements recall the building’s past, while sleek interior finishes and amenities cater to the demands of today’s residents. Select residences — along with the rooftop terrace — offer sweeping views of the Manhattan skyline, bringing an added layer of prestige to the living experience.
Inside, loft-sized one- and two-bedroom layouts feature soaring 11-foot ceilings, stainless steel GE and Whirlpool appliances, and in-home vented washer/dryers. Expansive windows flood each home with natural light, while quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and plank flooring lend a sophisticated, design-forward edge.
Lifestyle Amenities Designed for Today’s Renter
The Dylan’s amenity suite is curated for both convenience and leisure. Residents are welcomed by a stylish lobby lounge, and can take advantage of a state-of-the-art fitness center, a gaming space, a common laundry room, a secure package room, and a virtual doorman intercom system. Outdoor amenities include a rooftop terrace with al fresco dining areas and BBQ grills. The property also offers a private parking garage, dedicated storage, and bicycle storage for added convenience.
A Location Balancing Access and Neighborhood Appeal
Situated adjacent to Broadway and minutes from everyday essentials — including CVS, ShopRite, banks, the UPS store, and a diverse range of restaurants — The Dylan delivers both accessibility and neighborhood charm. Its proximity to the 22nd Street Light Rail Station provides a seamless connection to Manhattan and Jersey City, making it an ideal choice for commuters who value both efficiency and a sense of community.
