Overview of 244 East 79th Street

244 East 79th Street is a four story pre war rental building in Lenox Hill, completed in 1930 between Second and Third Avenues. Its 24 apartments retain the compact scale associated with older Upper East Side buildings, with one bedroom layouts represented in the available residences.

The apartments are organized around practical proportions: living rooms are large enough for a full seating arrangement and dining table, while bedrooms accommodate a queen size bed. Windowed kitchens with full size appliances, dishwashers, and generous counter space recur in the apartments, and hardwood floors are also common.

The building is described as clean and well maintained, with a pet friendly policy that permits cats and dogs. Shares and guarantors are allowed, giving the rental building flexible leasing policies, while the block's location places it among the shops, restaurants, and neighborhood services of the East 70s.
