The stately 14-story, Doorman/Concierge building complete with discreet elevator operator, was built in 1929, and owing to its prestige and privacy, has for many years, become the chosen retreat of many discerning residents, including movie star, Marilyn Monroe, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright, Arthur Miller, and international fashion icon, Bill Blass, all of whom have cherished it as home. Offering Additional Storage and a Bike Room, the building is located less than a half-block away from the charming Sutton Place Park overlooking the East River and is surrounded by blocks of boutique shopping and upscale dining options.
