Approx. Prices for Apartments at 401 East 65th Street

This pleasant, 16-story, gray-brick building was erected in 1962. It is a cooperative and has 147 apartments.

The building has a one-story, white marble base with polished gray granite pilasters. The building has a doorman, a roof deck, and a garage, but no sidewalk landscaping and no health club. Its avenue retail frontage is occupied by a supermarket.

This neighborhood is convenient to Rockefeller University and New York Hospital to the east and the Queensborough Bridge to the south. New luxury apartment construction at the beginning of the millennium is beginning to change the ambiance of the avenue. Just to the north of the building, for example, a very handsome new luxury rental apartment tower, known as The Pearl, opened in 2000 at 400 East 66th Street.

This building is two blocks south of St. Catherine's Park, which occupies the full avenue blockfront between 67th and 68th Streets, and one block south on the avenue of two churches.

There is convenient cross-town bus service, but the nearest subway is at Lexington Avenue.
