40 East 72nd Street is a five story, mid block condominium designed by Schwartz & Gross in 1928, with a landmarked red brick façade and just six residences. The building was reimagined in 2017 by designer Jacques Grange and architect Barry Rice, preserving its prewar proportions while introducing updated infrastructure and contemporary interiors.
The building has a 24 hour doorman, a canopied entrance, resident storage, a garden, laundry facilities, and in unit washer and dryer connections. Apartments have high ceilings, large windows, custom cabinetry, premium kitchen appliances, and generous storage; fireplaces, balconies, terraces, and other private outdoor spaces recur among the residences. Some homes also have radiant heated bathroom floors, central air conditioning, and private elevator landings.
The layouts range from full floor residences to larger multilevel homes. The maisonette is organized as a duplex, with its principal entertaining rooms on one level and bedrooms arranged on the other, while its private outdoor space extends from a terrace overlooking the garden to a lower level garden. This configuration gives the building a townhouse like residential option within a doorman condominium.
At the top of the building, the penthouse occupies three floors and contains approximately 6,060 square feet of interior space, with three terraces and three balconies totaling about 1,210 square feet outdoors. The address is on 72nd Street between Madison and Fifth Avenues, near the Frick Collection, Madison Avenue boutiques, and the Ralph Lauren stores.
