Description

Opened in 2000, the Chatham at 181 East 65th Street was conceived by Robert A. M. Stern, the dean of the Yale School of Architecture.

The design of the 34-story Chatham displays all of Stern’s virtuoso architectural skills. Inside, the 94 apartments feature classic layouts with fine finishes throughout, including solid wood doors, cherry wood floors and – most rare of all in post-war construction – plaster walls. Modern kitchens have premium appliances and glass and ash-blond cabinets imported from France. High-efficiency windows were imported from the Netherlands and bathrooms have marble floors and walls and topnotch fixtures. Several units have balconies or terraces.

The Chatham’s amenities are impressive and include an on-premise garage, storage and bike rooms and a David Barton Gym.

Carter Horsley's Review

Carter Horsley's Building Review
"The Chatham at 181 East 65th Street on the northwest corner at Third Avenue is a very handsome, red-brick, condominium apartment building on the former site of the Sign of the Dove Restaurant that for several decades was one of the most elegant and expensive on the Upper East Side.
The 34-story tower, which was completed in 2000, was designed by Robert A. M. Stern, a leading Post-Modem architect who is dean of the Yale School of Architecture and the author of several very major volumes on the history of New York's architecture over the last century or so."

Broker & Buyer Comments

"A great, full-service building beautifully designed by Robert A.M. Stern that blends in seamlessly with the surrounding buildings on the Upper East Side."
"Related commissioned Robert A.M. Stern, the then new dean of the Yale School of Architecture and one of America's preeminent architects, to design its first new-construction luxury condominium development in New York City: The Chatham at 181 East 65th Street, the former site of the renowned Sign of the Dove restaurant."
"It worked. This marks Related's third development with Stern as architect, and Stern's first condominium tower in the United States."
"The Chatham's limestone base with a Georgian-inspired brick facade and stone accents was intended to harmonize with the classic and elegant architecture of the Upper East Side, in the tradition of the best of New York's grand apartment buildings, marrying convenience and charm in a seamless package."
"Very nice building, thought it has many over-priced apartments."
