Overview of The Kingsley at 400 East 70th Street

The Kingsley, located at 400 East 70th Street in Manhattan's Lenox Hill neighborhood, is a distinctive 42-story condominium tower completed in 1984. Designed by Stephen B. Jacobs & Associates and developed by Ian Bruce Eichner, the building is architecturally notable for its bold stepped form and rounded balconies, creating a rhythmically dramatic beige brick façade.

The full-service building offers comprehensive amenities including 24-hour doorman and concierge services, a live-in resident manager, and laundry facilities on every floor. The 31st floor houses a state-of-the-art fitness center with panoramic views, complemented by two outdoor terraces. Additional conveniences include a bike room, luggage storage, resident's lounge, courtyard, and a public garage with direct building access.

Positioned strategically in the Upper East Side, The Kingsley provides excellent transportation access with the Second Avenue subway (Q train) just one block away, plus proximity to the 6 and F trains. The location offers convenient access to numerous retail options including Morton Williams, Trader Joe's, and Madison Avenue shopping, as well as various dining establishments and medical facilities.

The building maintains a strict no-pets policy and currently has an assessment in place through April 2026.
