Overview of Georgica at 305 East 85th Street

The Georgica at 305 East 85th Street is a striking 21 story, L-shaped condominium tower designed by Cetra/Ruddy and developed by Ascend Group LLC. The building wraps around a corner property and features a distinctive cantilevered design over two neighboring buildings. With only 58 residences across 21 floors, the glass curtain wall building offers an intimate living experience on a tree lined Yorkville street, with two to four residences per floor.

Apartments at The Georgica are distinguished by their varied and spacious layouts, with floor-to-ceiling windows and ceilings ranging from 9 to 11 feet 4 inches. Most units feature oak herringbone floors, and some include balconies, terraces, and fireplaces. The kitchens are outfitted with Miele, Sub-Zero, and Bosch appliances, custom cabinetry, and marble countertops, while bathrooms feature radiant heated floors and high end fixtures. Many corner units offer particularly impressive city and river views, with some larger apartments spanning over 3,000 square feet. The building includes several full floor penthouse residences with private terraces.

Building amenities include a 24 hour doorman and concierge service, a live-in resident manager, and a landscaped rooftop terrace with outdoor kitchen and dining areas. Additional amenities feature a state-of-the-art fitness center, children's playroom, bicycle storage, cold storage, and refrigerated package room. The Yorkville location provides convenient access to the Q train around the corner and the 4, 5, 6 subway lines nearby, with close proximity to Central Park, Carl Schurz Park, Museum Mile, and local shopping and dining options.
