Entering the apartment, a large dining area for entertaining. Not a chef? A piano or work-from-home office are great alternatives. The large, windowed galley kitchen makes meal preparation a breeze with abundant countertop and storage space.
Step down to the sunken living room which easily accommodates all of your furniture with ease (a large sectional, arm chairs or a Peloton are all options!). Large eastern facing windows let cheerful morning light bounce around the space. At almost 20" long, this living room is huge.
The king-sized bed is swallowed in this enormous bedroom which can also fit another work-from-home office and additional furniture.
Marlo Towers is perfectly situated on the corner of 48th and 2nd avenue. A quick trip to Grand Central makes any commute a breeze. And, once you're home, you'll enjoy wonderful views from the landscaped roof deck, a live-in super, doorman, central laundry room, garage and bike storage.
Flexible policies, pied-a-terre, guarantors and parents buying are permitted. Sublets are allowed after one year residency with board approval. There is a capital assessment in the amount of $53.25 per month.
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.
