Evans Tower is a 36 story post-war condominium at 171 East 84th Street, completed in early 1986 by developers Louis Evangelista and Legent Realty Company. Designed by Philip Birnbaum & Associates, the building houses 220 units and stands out for its thoughtful massing and cross-axis design that creates better views for residents while providing a welcome plaza at the busy Third Avenue corner. The tower features two story retail frontage along Third Avenue and a landscaped plaza with a canopied entrance on the side street.
The building's crown jewel is its glass enclosed rooftop swimming pool with a retractable dome, allowing for year-round use alongside a comprehensive fitness center and panoramic roof deck. Full service amenities include 24 hour doorman and concierge service, live-in resident manager, residents' lounge, children's playroom, bike room, private storage, and an in-building parking garage. The pet friendly building welcomes primary residents, pied-à-terres, and investors alike.
Apartment layouts range from studios to four bedroom units and duplexes, with many featuring private balconies and some boasting dramatic elements like 18 foot ceilings and 46 foot long terraces. Common features across units include hardwood floors, in-unit washer/dryers, windowed kitchens, and marble bathrooms. The building's prime Upper East Side location provides easy access to the 4/5/6 and Q subway lines, Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum, and neighborhood staples like Whole Foods and Fairway, making it a well positioned residential tower in one of Manhattan's most established neighborhoods.
