Overview of 309 East 81st Street

309 East 81st Street is a 1910 rental walkup in Yorkville, with five stories and 20 apartments on a tree lined Upper East Side block. Its defining feature is the range of layouts, which includes duplexes and triplexes as well as more conventional studios and one bedroom apartments, with terraces incorporated into some of the multilevel homes.

The apartments combine prewar details with practical updates. Exposed brick and hardwood floors recur across the residences, while the broader apartment mix includes air conditioning, marble bathrooms, fireplaces, and in-unit washers and dryers. Heat is included in the rent. Individual apartments have also featured renovated kitchens and bathrooms, recessed lighting, generous closet space, and strong natural light.

The building sits near the Upper East Side's restaurants, shops, and nightlife, with the tree lined setting providing a quieter residential backdrop. Access is handled through the rental office at 312 East 82nd Street, which maintains weekday and weekend hours.

Leases are generally for one year, with no shares or wall partitions permitted. The building accepts pets, allows guarantors and out of state applicants, and typically requires an income equal to 40 times the annual rent. Applicants with good credit generally provide a one month security deposit, while two months may be required in other cases.
