The Octavia, 216 East 47th Street: Review and Ratings
between Third Avenue & Second Avenue View Full Building Profile
This slender 32-story spire has only 48 apartments, affording most residents a level of privacy quite rare in a high-rise.
The condominium building was completed in 1985 and was designed by Daniel Pang & Associates for King Fook and Heather Mills N.V., Inc.
The building's façade is quite elegant with curved balconies on the tower that sits on a low-rise base that is set back at the 8th floor to match the setback of the YMCA building to its east.
This block is unusual in that it has three high-rise towers across the street from the famed Turtle Bay townhouses that share a common garden.
The building has a concierge and doorman, a bicycle room, storage space, video security, but no health club.
6sqft delivers the latest on real estate, architecture, and design, straight from New York City.
