between Second Avenue & First Avenue View Full Building Profile
This large, white-brick apartment building in the Sutton Place district is convenient to the east Midtown office district and one block away from cross-town bus service on 57th Street.
Some of the city's most impressive townhouses and exclusive apartment buildings are in this area.
The 22-story structure, which has some terraces, was erected in 1960 and converted to a cooperative in 1988. It has 173 apartments with a doorman and a concierge and a garage.
Although there is considerable traffic along First Avenue, this neighborhood has many popular restaurants and convenience shopping and is not far from several movie theaters. During the winter there is a tented tennis club nearby beneath the Queensborough Bridge at York Avenue.
