Overview of Channel Club at 455 East 86th Street

The Channel Club is a 39-story condominium at 455 East 86th Street, designed in 1987 by Wechsler-Grasso-Menziuso and developed by David Edelstein and Harvey and Edward Simpson. The slender tower features a distinctive reddish-purple brick façade and sits on a landscaped, raised corner plaza. A recent lobby renovation was completed by Michael Zenreich, and a small building extension was added approximately two decades after the original construction. The building contains 164 condominium apartments ranging from studios to a six bedroom unit on the 32nd floor.

Some apartments feature curved corner windows, private balconies, and open layouts with city and East River views, particularly on higher floors. Many units include hardwood floors, high ceilings, and renovated kitchens with modern appliances and larger apartments often have in-unit washer/dryers and generous closet space. 

The Channel Club is a full service, white glove condominium with a 24 hour doorman, concierge, and live-in superintendent. Amenities include a skylit indoor pool, sauna, state-of-the-art fitness center, children's playroom, and an outdoor Zen garden. The building is pet friendly and offers bicycle storage, private storage units for rent, and an independently operated attached garage with direct building access. The location provides convenient access to Carl Schurz Park, the Second Avenue Subway (Q train), the 4/5/6 express trains, the M86 crosstown bus, and the East 90th Street ferry, with nearby shopping at Whole Foods and Fairway.
