Property Description for 180 East End Ave, 2-D

Overlooking the greenery of Gracie Mansion, Apartment 2D is a sunny, spacious 2 bedroom home with both east and west facing windows. The apartment has just been painted and the public area floors redone. New flooring has been installed in the entrance gallery, kitchen and breakfast room; the beautiful parquet living room floor has been refinished. The current configuration has the two bedrooms and their shared bath off a private hallway. The living/dining/kitchen/breakfast room/powder room and entrance gallery flow in a way that is perfect for entertaining or everyday living.

Upon entering Apartment 2D, there is a wall of three large closets to the left and a powder room to the right. Just beyond the gracious entrance gallery with its new flooring, there is a dining room/breakfast room which can also function as a home office-or both. There is a large walk in pantry here with plenty of space for utilities or storage of any kind as well. Just beyond, the windowed kitchen faces west and overlooks the new architecturally landscaped garden. The nearly 31' dramatic living room serenely overlooks the trees on East End Avenue and the gardens of Gracie Mansion. There is plenty of space for several seating areas and a large dining table. Opposite and just beyond the living room, off a private hallway, are the two additional very well-proportioned bedrooms with large west-facing single pane tilt and turn windows. They share a center hall bathroom. The primary bedroom has extraordinary storage space with two large walk in closets and three regular closets.

There is a laundry room adjacent to the apartment and there is an additional laundry room in the basement. Additional amenities include the heated rooftop swimming pool, fitness center, bike room, attended garage with preferable rates for residents, the new garden with outdoor seating, playroom and library-lounge with a pool table. A storage bin transfers with the apartment. There is central air conditioning and the apartment pays $241/month for electric. Pets are welcome.

The highly coveted Gracie Towers is ideally located on the corner of East End Avenue and 88th street providing easy access to the East River Promenade. This is a well-designed building with a beautiful lobby. It is fully serviced with a 24-hour doorman, concierge, and live-in resident manager.

Gracie Towers is nearby several grocery stores such as Heavenly Market, CTown Supermarket, Morton Williams and D'Agostino. There are endless options to grab coffee or a bite to eat; for example, there is Arturo, Felice 83, Penrose, Eat Pretty, Starbucks, and The Mansion.

Upper East Side | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Exuding a cosmopolitan, refined air that is reminiscent of Paris or other European cities, the Upper East Side (the UES, to local cognoscenti) has a reputation as being a bastion of wealth and privilege. Even though it was built by American “royalty” families like the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Kennedys, Carnegies and Rockefellers, whose elaborate mansions once anchored Fifth Avenue, there are affordable housing options throughout the neighborhood. The further east you move, away from Central Park and the more commercial avenues, the more likely you are to find quiet, tree-lined streets with historic townhouses and brownstones. Keep your eye out for reasonably priced apartments in pre-war low-rise and even a few high-rise buildings.

With abundant, beautifully landscaped green spaces, including the oasis of Central Park acting like a backyard, the area is quiet and lushly green. You can relax and unwind in John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park or take a stroll along the East River Promenade. The whole neighborhood seems isolated from the workaday chaos of the city at large. Add to that the history of the neighborhood and the abundance of cultural institutions, and you have a uniquely welcoming neighborhood.

Known for its abundance of high-end retail shopping, especially on Madison Avenue, the Upper East Side is host to the Barneys New York flagship department store. Here you can find upscale goods, fashion and home decor items. You will also find the edgy runway-inspired Alexander McQueen collections. If you are dying to treat your feet to red-soled opulence, be sure to visit the Christian Louboutin boutique. These are only a small sampling of this high-end shopper’s paradise that features everything from designer boutiques that offer the ultimate in haute couture to resale shops where you can find last season’s best on sale at hefty discounts .

There are many unique dining experiences, from fine dining to the casual bite-on-the-go, awaiting you in the UES. Sushi is going through a renaissance in the city, and the best omakase-style sushi can be found at Sasabune on E 73rd Street. Omakase sushi means that you leave the choice of ingredients, preparation method and presentation to the chef. Elegant French cuisine can be experienced at JoJo, E 64th Street, housed in gorgeous townhouse. Just for fun, visit the Lexington Candy Shop on Lexington Avenue, to get a taste of an old-fashioned soda fountain.
