Overview of The Miles at Lexington Heights at 1990 Lexington Avenue
The Miles at Lexington Heights is a 32 story post-war rental in East Harlem, completed in 1974 with 341 apartments. Its height and prevalence of private outdoor space shape the building’s character, with many homes opening to balconies or terraces and upper floors overlooking the Manhattan skyline, Queens, and the East River.
Renovated apartments commonly have open living areas, large windows, substantial closet space, and similarly proportioned bedrooms. Some layouts incorporate separate dining nooks, while balconies and patios extend the living space in many residences. Heat, hot water, and gas are included in the rent.
The building has a 24 hour doorman, a fitness center, community room, package lockers, laundry room, on-site parking, and a live-in superintendent. Residents also have access to a lounge and landscaped courtyard at the neighboring Parker, another property in the Quintet NYC collection. Pets are permitted, and the building operates as income restricted housing.
The Miles sits just east of Marcus Garvey Park, between the subway stations at 116th Street and 125th Street on Lexington Avenue. The 6 train stops at 116th Street, while the 4, 5, and 6 trains serve 125th Street; Metro North service is available at Harlem 125th Street on Park Avenue.
