A History of Olympic Tower and Apartment 46/47C

Olympic Tower has a history worthy of a book; a biography or a pop culture/fashion lesson of a bygone era. Perhaps this book could have been published by Joni Evans, the publishing executive in charge of Simon and Schuster and Random House who lived in the building for several years. Olympic Tower was built in 1976 by developer Aristotle Onassis and partners, and designed by architectural company, Skidmore, Owings and Merrill. Not only was it one of the first condominiums in New York City, but it was the first all glass tower in the city. The Onassis family was only one of many prestigious families to live in this glamorous building, which also included the Gucci, Ferogamo, and Camerino families. Known as the ‘Studio 54’ of apartment buildings, it is not hard to believe that Liz Taylor would sneak into the building through the back entrance, to avoid the paparazzi that would always be outside, to enjoy the many glamorous parties hosted by Halston in his showroom which included a runway. Many of those parties were frequented by A-Listers such as Liza Minnelli, Carol Channing, Eartha Kitt, Truman Capote, Bianca Jagger and Martin Scorsese. Scorsese even brought some of his new up and comers at the time, Robert De Niro and Al Pacino. 46/47C has been owned by the Onassis family, and Adnan Khashoggi. Most recently, the notorious Rafaello Follieri and super star Anne Hathaway leased this apartment during their storybook romance.

Available for short term and long term lease.

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.
