L'Isola is a 23 story condominium built in 1987 at 157 East 32nd Street in Kips Bay. The 80 unit tower features a distinctive light red brick façade with a three story rusticated limestone base, a large circular window over its canopied entrance, and curved balconies throughout. The building sits set back in a fenced plaza with a fountain and landscaping, directly across from the Windsor Court apartment complex. The lobby, hallways, and elevators were recently renovated, and Local Law 11 work has been completed with the assessment paid in full.
Some apartments feature private balconies with southern and eastern exposures, offering city views that include the Chrysler Building from north facing units. Interiors typically include pass through kitchens, hardwood floors, and generous walk-in closets. Many two bedroom units offer split layouts for privacy, with only four apartments per floor. Some units include in-unit washer/dryers, and most alcove studios can be converted to one bedrooms.
Amenities include a 24 hour doorman and concierge, a fitness center with sauna, an on-site laundry room on the second floor, and a landscaped rear garden with barbecue facilities. The location offers exceptional convenience, situated one block from the 6 train and close to Grand Central Terminal, with access to the 4/5/7/S lines and the 34th Street Ferry. The building is close to Trader Joe's, Fairway, Whole Foods, and Target, with easy access to Bryant Park, the United Nations, and the dining and shopping of Murray Hill and Park Avenue South.
