50 Battery Place, also known as South Cove Plaza, is a residential building located in Battery Park City, Manhattan. The building was completed in 1999 and features 9 stories with a total of 208 rental units. It stands as part of the development of Battery Park City, a planned community built on landfill on the west side of lower Manhattan.

Battery Park City itself occupies 92 acres and was developed on what was previously a port and industrial area. Throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries, the neighboring area was known as Little Syria, home to various ethnic communities including Lebanese, Greeks, and Armenians. Earlier plans to develop this site in 1929 for residential use were abandoned due to difficult conditions during construction, such as encountering old docks and ship remnants. By the mid-20th century, the site had fallen into decline along with the shipping industry in downtown Manhattan.

The redevelopment of Battery Park City began with landfill efforts in the 1960s, supported by city and state officials, including Governor Nelson Rockefeller. The vision was to create a comprehensive community with housing, social infrastructure, and light industry, designed by architect Wallace K. Harrison. 50 Battery Place was one of the residential buildings constructed as part of this larger revitalization, symbolizing the transformation of the waterfront area from industrial decline to a vibrant residential neighborhood.

Argent Trading Testimonial

Argent Trading testimonial To Whom it May Concern: I have had the opportunity to work with Optimal Spaces Inc. (specifically, Stephen Sunderland) over the last 18 months. Stephen was hired to find a reasonably priced lease for corporate office space that would support our highly professional environment. I considered this to be a significant challenge since Manhattan was experiencing a severe shortage in available professional space. However, Stephen found a space that exceeded my expectations and that was approximately 15% below current market rates for comparable space. An important aspect of working with Stephen is the level to which I can trust him to act in my best interest. I believe that Stephen possesses in-depth knowledge of the New York City real estate market and is responsive and performs his work in a very professional manner. I am impressed by Stephen's sincere desire to understand his clients' needs. It is clear to me that Stephen is interested un building mutually beneficial business relationships. I am happy to recommend Optimal Spaces Inc. to other growing businesses, and I look forward to working with Optimal Spaces Inc. again. Sincerely, William Levitz President Argent Trading, LLC
