Overview of The Forum at 343 East 74th Street

The Forum is a 25-story condop located at 343 East 74th Street, between First and Second Avenues, and finished in 1987. It contains 148 apartments, and only four units per floor allows for excellent privacy.

Amenities and staff at this full-service building include a full-time doorman, live-in superintendent, 24-hour fitness center, sauna and steam room, garage with direct access from the elevator, and a roof deck. John Jay Park, popular restaurants and bars, the Q train, and FDR Drive are close to the building.

The Forum has 116 years remaining on a land lease with the Greek Orthodox church as landlord, and its payments only represent a small fraction of the building's operating budget. There is no board approval required, and the building permits all purchasing scenarios as well as unlimited subletting.

Broker & Buyer Comments

Add Your Own Comment

This "well-appointed" post-war condop offers "spacious" units featuring "elegant" herringbone floors and private balconies with "open city views" above the 8th floor. The "full-service" building boasts a "comprehensive" amenity package including doorman, free health club with sauna, and direct-access parking. While the "higher monthly fees" (due to land lease) give some pause, the "prime Upper East Side location" near "diverse dining options" and "excellent shopping" on Third and Lex makes it a "solid choice." The "no board approval" policy and "pet-friendly" atmosphere add to its appeal, though some units "may need updating."
