Broker & Resident Comments

This "well-maintained" Upper East Side residence earns praise for its "unbeatable location" near multiple subway lines, Central Park and premium grocers. Residents rave about the "exceptional" staff who provide "personal yet professional" service, while amenities including a "fantastic" roof deck with city views, in-unit washer/dryers, and a "well-equipped" gym make daily living convenient. Though some note "construction noise" and "rental increases," the "true community feel" and "responsive maintenance" keep residents loyal. The "dog-friendly" environment and "doorstep package delivery" add to the appeal of this "modern" building where many units feature "beautiful finishes."
