Property Description for 245 East 24th Street, 16-A

Incredible open city views truly underscore this approximately 550 square foot, high floor Junior 1-bedroom apartment. Thanks to its large Western facing windows, this extremely quiet home provides bountiful sunshine by day and breathtaking sunsets beyond the city horizon in the evening.


The living area provides ample space for a large sofa and dining table, perfect for quiet evenings at home or entertaining dinner quests. A desk can also be accommodated offering excellent work from home potential. A wall with built-in bookshelves has been added to the alcove, creating a separate bedroom suited for a queen-sized bed, nightstand, and small dresser. Other highlights include newly refinished floors, glass shower doors, and large closets.


Built in 1963, the 16-story Tracy Towers features an elegant lobby, newly installed state of the art elevators and washer/dryer units in the central laundry room, and a great staff with 24-hour doorman, porter, and live-in resident manager. Other attractive amenities include through wall air conditioning, bike and storage rooms, and one of the loveliest rooftop gardens in NYC that is beautifully landscaped and complete with awe-inspiring views. The location is convenient to local shops, restaurants, and services, as well as Gramercy and Madison Square Parks, the East Side River path, Trader Joe’s, Fairway, AMC movie theater, and public transportation. Pets and pied-a-terres are permitted. Subletting is permitted after two years of ownership for two years and a monthly fee totaling 25% of the maintenance. Broker/Owner

Kips Bay | Manhattan

Quick Profile

If you take a walk through Kips Bay, which is loosely defined as the area between 23rd street and 34th street and the East River to almost Lexington, you’ll quickly learn it's a hodgepodge of sorts and not as well defined as other neighborhoods in New York City. Some New Yorkers say Kips Bay has an identity crisis because 1st, 2nd, and 3rd avenues are distinctly different from one another as you traverse them. Despite the perceived lack of neighborhood vibe there are others that appreciate its affordability and convenience.  

First Avenue is dominated by hospitals and hospital buildings such as NYU Medical Center and Bellevue Hospital to name a few. Second Avenue is a mosaic of convenience stores, fast food joints and nondescript brick buildings. Third Avenue is saturated with small bars and gastropubs and the twenty somethings that patronize them. 

No judgement against Kips Bay here. It’s a great neighborhood that is just as much a part of New York City as any other neighborhood. Kips Bay It’s bordered by Murray Hill to the North, Stuyvesant Town and Gramercy Park to the South, and Rose Hill to the West. The neighborhood is partly defined by newer high-rise apartments, brick rowhouses, and former tenement buildings.
