Property Description for 142 East 49th Street, 2-B

Elegant and full of pre-war charm, this is not your cookie cutter apartment. Located on an intimate, tree-lined street yet in the heart of it all with easy access to transportation, shopping along Fifth Avenue, and award-winning restaurants. Enter your home via a short flight of stairs or the elevator - you choose! The lobby and hallways are reminiscent of old New York glamour that draw inspiration from a famous neighbor across the street - The Waldorf Astoria. The foyer opens up to a spacious living and dining area with two large windows. Plenty of space to have a sectional couch and a dining table / work from home setup. Gorgeous, chestnut-stained hardwood floors and beams on the ceiling showcase the pre-war details dating back to the 1920s. The king-sized bedroom has two closets, along with the two closets you find upon entering the home. Storage will not be an issue in this pre-war charmer! 142 East 49th Street is an Art Deco, boutique co-op with a part-time doorman, live-in super and central laundry room. The building is conveniently located near the 6, E, and M trains and is close to Grand Central Station. Pied-a-terres, gifting, co-purchasing, and parents buying for children is allowed. Unlimited subletting is allowed after two consecutive years of residing in the space.

Turtle Bay | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Turtle Bay is best known for hosting the world’s dignitaries at United Nations once a year as the world institution sits on the eastern edge of the neighborhood along the East River.

But this midtown location offers a lot more, a bustling neighborhood teeming with high-rise apartment buildings and an easy walk to the Midtown business district.

Over the past two decades, developers have assembled almost every corner development site along Second Avenue and have built straight up. Not much left to assemble.

Some of the more glamorous, and of course most expensive, addresses are in close proximity to the United Nations. Trump World Tower, which caused a big stir with area residents, in particular, Walter Cronkite, when it was built sits just north of the United Nations Grounds. 

In contrast to the proliferation of the residential highrise, Turtle Bay does have some lovely tree-lined streets between the avenues. In particular, Turtle Bay Gardens, which fronts both 48th Street and 49th Street between Third and Second Avenue has always been a haven for the rich and famous.
