Property Description for 5 Tudor City Place, 1732

Stunning East River views from this well-designed corner one bedroom in Windsor Tower at 5 Tudor City Place. With both eastern and northern exposures, the United Nations Headquarters, an International Style architectural icon, can be viewed from the bedroom.

Every detail was considered during the sleek and contemporary total renovation of this elegant home, from Carrera marble window sills and updated windows to South American hardwood floors. Beamed ceilings and cove molding add interest to the spacious living area and frame the river view. A window seat and concealed storage below the picture window maximize space.

The open kitchen features an expansive quartz countertop with a mosaic tile backsplash, ample storage with the European-style white cabinetry, Bosch oven and full-sized dishwasher, Blomberg stainless steel refrigerator, glass cooktop and microwave.

Windowed and mirrored, the bathroom evokes a spa with a rainforest shower, a full-sized bathtub and flattering lighting. With room for a king-sized bed or a queen-sized bed and room for a dresser, an armoire and a desk, and the superb views, the bedroom also features a walk-in closet, which, like the entry foyer's two deep closets, features built-in shelving systems. The monthly maintenance fee includes taxes and most utilities.

Windsor Tower is a pet-friendly community which permits pieds-a-terre and subletting. Residents enjoy 24-hour concierge service, laundry room, community lounge, bike storage and a convenience store. The Club at 5 Tudor Fitness Center has new equipment in a light-filled gym and can be joined for an additional fee.

On the US Register of National Historic Places and a New York City Landmark, the Tudor City community dates from 1926 and was the first residential skyscraper complex in the world. At the intersection of Turtle Bay and Murray Hill, Tudor City is an oasis in the heart of Midtown East. Two parks maintained by Tudor City Greens provide tranquil and verdant spaces and also host concerts and other community events. Local businesses include a restaurant, a cafe, a delicatessen and a fashion boutique.

Nearby restaurants include Michelin-starred Sushi Yasuda and Agern, Grifone, Alcala, Shake Shack and The Comfort Diner. Fitness options include New York Sports Clubs, Orangetheory and Blink. Served by the 4, 5, 6, 7, S and Metro North trains from Grand Central Terminal.

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.
