Curbed is an American real estate and urban design website published by New York magazine. Founded as a blog by Lockhart Steele in 2006 to cover New York City real estate,[1][2] it grew by 2010 to feature sub-pages dedicated to specific real estate markets and metropolitan areas across the United States. Steele once described Curbed.com as an "Architectural Digest after a three-martini lunch". The site hosted an annual contest, the Curbed Cup, to pick the best neighborhood in each city.[3]
In November 2013, Vox Media purchased the Curbed Network, which, apart from Curbed, also included dining website Eater and fashion website Racked. The New York Times reported that the cash-and-stock deal was worth between $20 million and $30 million. In 2018, the Curbed critic Alexandra Lange won a New York Press Club award for her story "No Loitering, No Skateboarding, No Baggy Pants."[4]
Curbed had expanded to include area-specific editions for Atlanta, Austin, Boston, Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles, New Orleans, New York City, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Seattle, and Washington, D.C.[5] In 2020, however, as a part of a downward trend of layoffs and restructuring of many venture capital-funded sites, and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, many of Curbed's area-specific sites closed, leaving New York City as the site's sole remaining metropolitan focus.
In October 2020, Curbed was integrated into New York magazine's suite of digital publications,[6] where it was redesigned and focused more tightly on New York City's built environment, design, architecture, real estate, and urbanism. Its prominent contributors include New YorkTemplate:'s Pulitzer Prize–winning architecture and music critic Justin Davidson and the magazine's acclaimed design writer Wendy Goodman.
In 2026, The Architect's Newspaper reported that "since December 2025[update]Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters"., a significant portion of the [Curbed's] national coverage and vast network of city-specific beats has been taken offline, the latest in a string of digital publications, alternative weeklies, and local media sites that remain difficult or impossible to access due to ownership decisions".[7] Vox Media stated a content management system transition led to older articles no longer being accessible and that they do not "have a solution for publicly maintaining the Curbed archive".[7]
