Property Description for 5 Tudor City Place, 1932

Welcome home to your sun-flooded jewel box of an apartment in the sky. Located in the wonderful co-op building of 5 Tudor City Place, this pre-war classic 1BR apartment boasts unparalleled river views both North and East.

Located on the 19th floor, this mint condition property is efficiently proportioned with charming details throughout. Views abound while no detail has been overlooked: beautifully restored hardwood floors, newly replaced Thermopane casement windows, and crown moldings. One enters into the apartment through entry foyer with two abundant closets at right and left. Just off of the galley kitchen is a generous living room framed by two central casement windows with dramatic views of the East River and beyond, PepsiCola sign and all. The king/queen bedroom has a walk-in closet and features another set of windows with corner exposure and both East and North views of the United Nations, 59th Street Bridge, etc. The windowed bathroom has been recently updated and renovated, 6" subway tile, recessed medicine cabinet, new glass enclosed spa shower, and more. Rarely does such a high floor corner apartment in such exquisite condition become available in this building. Maintenance fee includes electricity, heat and hot water. Subletting permitted with board approval after three (3) years of ownership.

Five Tudor City Place is located in the private and charming enclave of Tudor City, filled with central public parks and gardens, classic pre-war buildings, and a level of peace and quiet hardly found in Midtown Manhattan. This is a full service co-op building with 24hr doorman, live-in super, gym, laundry, bike room, storage, and more. Within walking distance to United Nations and Grand Central Station (MetroNorth, 4/5/6/7/S trains), and the new Second Avenue Subway line soon to extend with a stop at 42nd Street - this is a great opportunity in a hidden gem of a neighborhood.

Tudor City | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Compared to other New York City neighborhoods Tudor City is a bit different. For starters, it's not very big. And technically it's not a neighborhood, it's more along the lines of a residential enclave of Tudor style buildings and parks. Even with the large neon sign boldly exclaiming the enclave's name, Tudor CIty is still a little tricky to find. 

Located on the southern edge of Turtle Bay, Tudor City borders Murray Hill and lies on a low cliff which is just east of Second Avenue between 40th and 43rd Street. It overlooks the grounds of the United Nations along First Avenue and the East River beyond.

Tudor City is considered one of the world’s first skyscraper apartment complexes. This was considered a remarkable feat in 1929. Early marketing material, aimed at the middle class, described the development as well-planned, well-built, and well-priced housing. Developer Fred F. Finch designed Tudor City to keep middle class residents in Manhattan as many were fleeing the city for the suburbs.
