The Colorado is a 35 story, 256 apartment rental tower completed in 1987 at 201 East 86th Street in Yorkville. Its corner site has considerable light and air because two opposing corners are low rise and the remaining corner is occupied by a tower set back in a plaza. A two story limestone base and stainless steel entrance anchor the beige brick exterior; on the south façade, an indented dark brown brick section breaks up the tower’s massing.
The building has a 24 hour attended lobby with doorman and concierge service. A 2,700 square foot furnished roof deck forms the main shared outdoor space, while the fitness center, residents lounge, common dining room and children’s playroom round out the interior amenities. Valet parking, dry cleaning, pet services, a live-in superintendent and a central laundry room are also offered, and pets are allowed.
Apartments have central air, and many renovated homes have in-unit washers and dryers. Several renovated residences have open Manhattan skyline views from every room, reinforced by the tower’s many corner windows and open surroundings. The residential design also incorporates private terraces and balconies.
Whole Foods is one block away, with Central Park and Museum Mile farther west along 86th Street and Carl Schurz Park to the east. The 86th Street station at Lexington Avenue serves the 4, 5 and 6 trains, while the 86th Street station at Second Avenue serves the Q.
This "well-situated" Upper East Side high-rise offers "spacious" apartments with "modern amenities" including "gorgeous" roof deck with "amazing views" and a "well-equipped gym" complete with Pelotons. The "professional" doormen and staff provide "impeccable service" in this "convenient" location that's "steps from shopping and transit." While some note "construction issues" during renovations, recent updates showcase "modern kitchens" with "stainless steel appliances" and "heated bathroom floors." The building provides "valet service" and a "resident website" that makes living here "effortless," though some suggest management can be "hit or miss."
