Description

Turtle Bay Towers is a 27-story condop located at 310 East 46th Street. Built in 1929 as an design school and known for its striking terraced façade, the tower was briefly home to a print factory. In 1979, its careful conversion to 338 luxury apartments was noted with the First Honor Award from the American Institute of Architects. On-site amenities at this pet-friendly property include a large renovated lobby with two sitting areas, a rooftop terrace, laundry, storage, bike room, and a parking garage, plus 24-hour doorman service and a live-in super.

As a condop, Turtle Bay Towers combines all the attraction of a graceful prewar property with the flexibility of a condo: no formal board approval, an open sublet policy and pied-a-terres allowed. With a venerable history dating back to New Amsterdam, Turtle Bay is the most tranquil corner of Midtown Manhattan, known for its quiet tree-lined streets and beautiful green spaces. United Nations Plaza is just down the street, while Grand Central Station is a few blocks in the other direction and all the appeal of living in the heart of Manhattan is moments away.

Carter Horsley's Review

"This attractive, 26-story, beige-brick, mid-block condop was erected in 1929 and has 337 apartments.

The building's canopied entrance is in an arcade that is set back considerably from the building line. The very large lobby is highly visible behind glass partitions, the top part of which is angled. Part of the west wall of the lobby is curved and part of the mail box wall at the rear of the lobby is visible from the street. The building has a concierge, a garage, discrete air-conditioners, some terraces and basement storage, but no sidewalk landscaping and no balconies." Read Carter's Full Review
