Property Description for 117 East 57th Street, 44-G

High floor, jaw dropping views, below market Galleria 1BR condo

From the moment you set foot in this high-floor condominium, you are drawn to the endless city views from one of the most spectacular vantage points in NYC, which includes a partial view of Central Park. This spacious 1BR apartment has been completely emptied of all fixtures (no kitchen or bathroom) and is waiting for the next buyer to custom-design the renovation. Plans and contractor are in place for a high-end renovation - or bring your own contractor and customize to your hearts desire. This is a tremendous opportunity to purchase below market value. Details provided upon request.

The Galleria - one of the most luxurious full service, white glove buildings in the City - is situated along a section of East 57th Street now being called "Billionaires Row" due to the presence of 432 Park Avenue - the tallest residential building in the Western Hemisphere - and other ultra-luxury new construction. It's base has been described by a former NY Times architecture critic as "one of the most spectacular and imaginative in the City's history."

Amenities include the "Sky Lounge" - an outdoor and indoor rooftop lounge with 360 degree panoramic views of the City and butler service - a doorman, concierge and attended elevators. A new Premier SpaCastle spa will be located in the lower level of the building and opening in November 2014, and Whole Foods is just down the street.

No weekend showings - please email for appointment.

Midtown East | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Midtown West and Midtown East have a lot in common. They’re bustling, iconic, and full of people. But just like siblings, their personalities can be vastly different. Midtown East is a bit more sophisticated and doesn’t quite have the vivacity and unruliness that its westerly counterpart exudes. 

Midtown East is bordered by 42nd to the south, 59th Street to the north, 5th Avenue to the west, and 3rd Avenue to the east. 

The neighborhood is famous for its high-end stores, tourist attractions, posh hotels (budget ones too), and iconic architecture. Midtown East is also one of the largest financial and business hubs in Manhattan. During normal business hours the sidewalks are full of commuters and people moving from point A to point B. In the early evening, when the masses have left for the day, things suddenly get a little quieter and the sidewalks have a lot less foot traffic.  

Although largely a commercial neighborhood, residential areas of Midtown East do exist on the eastern section of the neighborhood. 

Grand Central Station is located in Midtown East and like Midtown West, it’s an extremely commutable neighborhood. The 4, 5, 6, 7 and S trains whisk people in and out of the neighborhood 24 hours a day. Grand Central Station also serves as a hub for New York State and Connecticut commuter rails. These trains can take you anywhere along the Hudson River or up into Connecticut. It’s perfect for day tripping.
