Overview of The Blake at 220 East 63rd Street

The Blake is a 13-story rental apartment building located at 220 East 63rd Street on the Upper East Side of New York City. It was designed by architect Joseph S. Rizzio and constructed in 1963. The building was acquired by the Atlas Capital Group in 2006 for approximately $100 million. The interiors were designed by Amir K Designs. The building is situated on a quiet street, yet conveniently close to popular destinations such as Bloomingdale's and Serendipity, as well as the Romanesque-style Barbizon apartment building.

The Blake features a white-brick exterior with a limestone entrance surround and a small entrance canopy. The lobby is elegantly designed with Italian porcelain slab patterned flooring and mahogany walls, complemented by a library nook. The building offers a range of amenities, including a 24-hour doorman and concierge, a fitness center, a garage, valet services, and a residents' lounge.

The apartments at The Blake are well-appointed, with kitchens featuring lacquered cabinetry, Caesar Stone quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances. Bathrooms are equipped with Italian porcelain tile, polished mahogany vanities, and Kohler fixtures. Notable units include Penthouse B, a two-bedroom unit with a terrace, and Unit A, a three-bedroom unit with a spacious living room. Some apartments are furnished by Oakwood Worldwide, which acquired the ExecuStay corporate housing brand from Marriott International in 2012.

The building is pet-friendly and offers easy access to multiple subway lines, including the 4, 5, 6, E, M, F, Q, N, R, and W, making it a convenient choice for residents. The Blake's location provides proximity to a variety of shopping, dining, and entertainment options, enhancing the living experience for its residents.
