Property Description

This iconic building was erected in 1966 by Max Abramovitz and Wallace Harrison, the lead architects for the United Nations Headquarters.

The luxury building is known as one of New York City’s classic modernist residential buildings. It boasts unencumbered city views from oversized windows and overlooks the East River.

Located near Beekman and Sutton Place in the heart of midtown Manhattan it is easily accessible to pocket parks and the newly created East Midtown Greenway which has a 1.8-acre public promenade along the East River waterfront.
United Nations Plaza is comprised of two 38 story towers, containing @336 apartments. The building has a circular drive for easy access, four spacious sundecks with 360-degree views, garage, state of the art gym, and library. In addition, the building is pet friendly.

The highly attentive staff is known for providing tight security and privacy for its residents.

This elegant high floor home with stunning city and river views was originally an oversized “Classic 6”. The sun-flooded apartment was opened to create a sophisticated apartment for both living and entertaining. A large square entry foyer with half bath welcomes you into the apartment. The second bedroom with an ensuite marble bathroom, now doubles as a library/ guest room which opens into the corner Living Room by bi-fold doors. The large formal dining room can be accessed from both the foyer and living room which creates a circular flow for grand entertaining. The expansive corner living room has multiple seating areas plus room for a card table. The primary bedroom suite which faces North has a dressing area, 2 large walk in closets and an ensuite marble bathroom with soaking tub and separate stall shower. The large L shaped eat in kitchen with butler’s pantry is equipped with stainless steel appliances including a Fisher Paykel Refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, Miele 4 burner stove, microwave, ice maker and a stacked Miele washer/dryer. The third bedroom with ensuite bathroom now serves as a home office. The apartment has 8 large closets, motorized shades, and a secondary back service entrance. The Living Room and Dining Room have hand painted stenciled floors.
