Overview of 151 East 78th Street

151 East 78th Street is a 16 story, 14 residence Lenox Hill condominium designed by Peter Pennoyer and completed in 2014. The mid-block building pairs a two story limestone base with red brick, multipaned windows and decorative urns along the parapets, while stepped upper floors incorporate terraces, bay windows and three street facing oculi. It occupies the former site of the Ackerman Institute between Lexington and Third Avenues.

Residences range from approximately 3,300 to 6,900 square feet, and many occupy a full floor. Private landings open to barrel vaulted entry galleries, while the full floor plans arrange formal rooms in long, south facing enfilades with floor-to-ceiling windows; bedroom wings are oriented toward neighboring townhouse gardens.

The building's three penthouses occupy its stepped upper levels, where terraces and broad exposures correspond to the articulated roofline. At the base, the Maisonette spans the first and second floors, combining a dedicated street level foyer with a two tier private garden.

The building has a 24 hour doorman, live-in resident manager, fitness center, yoga studio, bicycle room and private storage. A library off the lobby leads to a landscaped courtyard with a fountain, and building systems include an emergency generator and humidification.
