Overview of The Charleston at 225 East 34th Street

The Charleston at 225 East 34th Street is a 21 story, 191 unit condominium in Murray Hill, developed by LCOR and the California State Teachers Retirement System. Designed by SLCE with HLW International as design consultant, the building is named after Charles Benenson, the New York developer and art collector who died in 2004 and previously owned the site. The building's location near the Queens Midtown Tunnel means considerable traffic, though residents benefit from proximity to Trader Joe's, Fairway and an AMC theater.

Units range from studios (approximately 540 square feet) to three bedroom penthouses (approximately 1,712 square feet), with one bedrooms spanning 670 to 980 square feet and two bedrooms from 983 to 1,441 square feet. Apartments feature 9 to 10 foot ceilings and oversized floor-to-ceiling windows, with many units offering balconies and Empire State Building views. Kitchens are equipped with marble countertops, wine coolers, etched glass cabinetry, and with some units featuring appliances such as Sub-Zero refrigerators and Fisher & Paykel dishwashers. Most apartments have in-unit washer/dryers, California Closets, and multi zone heating and cooling systems, with many apartments including deeded storage units.

The building offers 24 hour doorman and concierge service, along with a fitness center equipped with Pelotons and cable TV on cardio equipment. The landscaped roof deck provides 360 degree views of the city skyline, furnished with tables, chairs, and chaise lounges. Additional amenities include the Charleston Club, a second floor party room with a catering kitchen and dining space for up to 14 people; a zen garden designed by Thomas Balsey Associates with three waterfalls, geometric patterned flooring, and outdoor BBQ grills; a media lounge; an outdoor dog run; and a full service garage. The pet friendly building features a live-in superintendent and complimentary wireless internet in common areas.
