Overview of 16 East 84th Street

16 East 84th Street is a landmarked pre-war condominium built in 1900 by architects Clinton & Russell for George Gordon King, a member of one of New York's prominent families. The five story building contains eight units and sits on a tree lined block between Fifth Avenue and Madison Avenue in Carnegie Hill. Part of a trio of London-inspired neo-Georgian mansions, the building features an Ionic portico, Flemish-bond brickwork, marble entryway, and original wood-paneled elevator that serves as architectural remnants of its grand origins.

Residences range from studios to full floor apartments, with many units featuring 11 foot ceilings, wood burning fireplaces, and private terraces or balconies. Several apartments showcase original interior design elements by Ogden Codman, including elaborate crown moldings, decorative bas relief friezes, and two inch thick carved doors. The thick masonry walls provide sound privacy, while modern renovations have added central air conditioning and updated kitchens and bathrooms throughout the building.

Building amenities include an elevator, basement storage, video intercom system, and in-unit washer/dryer installations. The building welcomes pets and allows pied-à-terre ownership. Recent capital improvements include a new boiler and repointed front and back façades.

The location places residents steps from Central Park and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, with easy access to Madison Avenue shopping and Upper East Side dining. The building's position on this museum block offers some units views stretching to Central Park's treetops, while others overlook private townhouse gardens.
