Individual homes are thoughtfully-designed to evoke calm and relaxation. Penthouses and select residences feature expansive private terraces.

“We’re proud of The Dime, from its architectural design to its efficient and modern living spaces, to the carefully thought out amenities that will foster a balanced lifestyle,” said Sam Charney, Founder and Principal of Charney Companies. “We think now more than ever, residents will especially appreciate the abundance of private outdoor space, totaling over an acre with plenty of room to socially distance.
