This 36-story, brown-brick rental apartment building was erected in 1975 by the Kibel Company. It has 352 apartments, many with good views.

With its large windows and concrete floor plates, this tower, which is indented a bit on its long sides, is simple but quite strong. The neighborhood of the East 30s is rather amorphous with not too many distinguished landmarks. This area, however, is graced by proximity to I. M. Pei's very handsome Kips Bay Plaza complex to the south and the new towers that sprouted in the late 1980's around the Manhattan Entrance to the Queens-Midtown Tunnel a couple of blocks to the north.

This building has a doorman, a garage, a health club and pool, a sundeck, video security and a laundry on the third floor.

The building has a location that is very convenient to both the Midtown and Midtown South business districts and is not too far from the trendy Flatiron District. It has good cross-town bus service and neighborhood shopping and is convenient to the FDR Drive and a heliport along the East River.
