Property Description for 118 East 60th Street, 10-BC
Welcome home to this centrally-located, perfectly-combined 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom B&C line unit with 2 separate terraces.
Upon entering this home, you are greeted with a foyer to shake off the day or greet your guests. Immediately thereafter, the living room seems to be calling your name to walk in, sit down and relax or head out to one of the two terraces to catch your breath. Or head directly to the kitchen, which is newly-renovated and built with Carrara marble, an eat-in countertop, an amazing amount of cabinet and closet space, premium appliances, and a built-in wine cooler to house your favorite brands. To enhance your dining experience, the second of the two terraces is directly off the kitchen, making your morning or evening routine that much more enjoyable! In addition, this residence boasts a separate perfectly-designed and cozy home office/study. There are closets and storage space galore at nearly every turn. The large master bedroom is hidden on one side of the apartment while the other two bedrooms lay side-by-side on the other side. All bedrooms have ample closet space and bathrooms just off the bedrooms, while the master features an en-suite bathroom and large walk-in closet.
The Plaza Towers, built in 1964, is one of the premier white-glove cooperatives on the Upper East Side, nestled between Park and Lexington Avenues on East 60th Street. Spanning 33 floors with 232 units, the building contains everything from studios to three-bedrooms, some with outdoor space. When constructed, the building was stepped back from the road in order to allow for a covered circular driveway with an inviting fountain. There is a 24-hour doorman and concierge, a common roof-deck with sweeping views of Central Park, an adjacent garage, central laundry, a package room, common storage, and bike storage. 118 East 60th Street is situated in the heart of all that the Upper East Side has to offer, including prime shopping at Bloomingdale's and Bergdorf Goodman's, and high-end dining at restaurants such as Philippe, Il Mulino, Lavo, Tao, and Harry Cipriani. If this is not enough, then escape into Central Park, which is just a stone's throw away, or hop onto the subway (including the 4/5/6 and N/Q/R), just steps from the building, to go wherever in the city you like, whether it's the east or the west side, further uptown or downtown.

Quick Profile
Exuding a cosmopolitan, refined air that is reminiscent of Paris or other European cities, the Upper East Side (the UES, to local cognoscenti) has a reputation as being a bastion of wealth and privilege. Even though it was built by American “royalty” families like the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Kennedys, Carnegies and Rockefellers, whose elaborate mansions once anchored Fifth Avenue, there are affordable housing options throughout the neighborhood. The further east you move, away from Central Park and the more commercial avenues, the more likely you are to find quiet, tree-lined streets with historic townhouses and brownstones. Keep your eye out for reasonably priced apartments in pre-war low-rise and even a few high-rise buildings.
With abundant, beautifully landscaped green spaces, including the oasis of Central Park acting like a backyard, the area is quiet and lushly green. You can relax and unwind in John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park or take a stroll along the East River Promenade. The whole neighborhood seems isolated from the workaday chaos of the city at large. Add to that the history of the neighborhood and the abundance of cultural institutions, and you have a uniquely welcoming neighborhood.
Known for its abundance of high-end retail shopping, especially on Madison Avenue, the Upper East Side is host to the Barneys New York flagship department store. Here you can find upscale goods, fashion and home decor items. You will also find the edgy runway-inspired Alexander McQueen collections. If you are dying to treat your feet to red-soled opulence, be sure to visit the Christian Louboutin boutique. These are only a small sampling of this high-end shopper’s paradise that features everything from designer boutiques that offer the ultimate in haute couture to resale shops where you can find last season’s best on sale at hefty discounts .
There are many unique dining experiences, from fine dining to the casual bite-on-the-go, awaiting you in the UES. Sushi is going through a renaissance in the city, and the best omakase-style sushi can be found at Sasabune on E 73rd Street. Omakase sushi means that you leave the choice of ingredients, preparation method and presentation to the chef. Elegant French cuisine can be experienced at JoJo, E 64th Street, housed in gorgeous townhouse. Just for fun, visit the Lexington Candy Shop on Lexington Avenue, to get a taste of an old-fashioned soda fountain.
