Overview of The Monarch at 200 East 89th Street

The Monarch, completed in 1986 at 200 East 89th Street in Yorkville, is a distinctive 44-story condominium tower designed by Schuman, Lichtenstein, Claman & Efron. The building, developed by Thomas Kenneth, Stephen LaSala, and J.I. Sopher Inc., contains 263 units, with approximately three-quarters being one-bedroom apartments. Its architectural signature features a rhythmic pattern of balconies that wrap around corners, vertical grills on rectilinear balconies, and a light beige façade with circular motifs and oculi windows adorning its base.

The building is notable for its extensive amenity package, centered around a glass-roofed health club facility that includes an atrium pool, jacuzzi, sauna, and steam room. Additional services include 24-hour doorman and concierge, valet service, a live-in superintendent, and garage parking. The property maintains a cats-only pet policy.

Situated in a prime Upper East Side location, The Monarch offers convenient access to Central Park, Whole Foods, and multiple transit options including the 4, 5, 6, and Q subway lines.

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "prime Upper East Side gem" wins raves for its "outstanding location" with "excellent transportation access" including the 4/5/6 trains and crosstown bus. The building sits in a "cultural sweet spot" near "upscale shopping," museums, and the 92nd Street Y, while foodies appreciate the proximity to Whole Foods and Fairway markets. Though management can be "somewhat disorganized," the "easy approval process" makes this a practical choice for those seeking the "complete Upper East Side lifestyle."
