Property Description for 30 Beekman Place, PH
I.M. Pei designed this superb penthouse atop the building he loved and lived in for many years. Comprising over 3100 square feet of elegant interior space completely surrounded by 2200 square feet of planted terraces with stunning views of the East River and Roosevelt Island to the East and dramatic cityscapes in three directions, this is truly a unique New York trophy apartment.
A private elevator landing opens to an art-welcoming gallery that leads to the two bedrooms in one direction and the living and entertaining spaces in the other.
The two living rooms (one formerly a large formal dining room, now used as a library), each with a wood-burning fireplace, run the entire length of the apartment and are bathed in sunlight all day long. They are entered through a windowed seating area (with a guest bathroom) at the end of the gallery.
The large master bedroom faces East with floor to ceiling windows and an entrance to the terrace. Its en-suite windowed bathroom, adorned throughout with exquisite marble and stone, is as large as some studios. Down the hall is the second large bedroom with windows facing West and South. Its en-suite bathroom is also clad in marble and stone and includes a closet ideally suited for washer/dryer (which is permitted).
The spacious eat-in chef's kitchen with a wall of windows facing West includes top of the line new appliances. At one end it opens to a sophisticated wet bar that connects to the adjacent living room/formal dining room/library.
30 Beekman Place, designed by George Pelham, was built in 1930. Amenities include a recently restored lobby, 24-hour doorman service, a resident manager, modern gym, basement storage, and a building water purification system.
Beekman Place is a serene, intimate enclave that has been home to such luminaries as Irving Berlin, John D. Rockefeller, and William Paley. And, of course, it was the fictional "glamorous" residence of Auntie Mame of Broadway musical fame.
The Beekman /Sutton Place neighborhood is a charming, highly desirable community replete with some of the city's finest luxury buildings and townhouses. Excellent restaurants, food markets (Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Morton Williams, International Cheese), and general shopping make it a very livable community. Its close proximity to the Park Avenue office district and its location in the heart of the East Side medical corridor are especially appealing. And easy access to the FDR Drive, the Queensboro Bridge, and Midtown Tunnel allows for quick escapes for those going to Long Island, Connecticut, and the airports.

Quick Profile
Beekman Place is less of a neighborhood than it is a quiet two-block enclave just north of the United Nations on the far eastern edge of Turtle Bay. There is only one street that runs through the neighborhood, also called Beekman Place, that wraps itself around 49th Street and 51st Street.
This bucolic little stretch of the east side has always been a cherished spot for those fortunate enough to have found refuge here. The noise and the street traffic from the city surrounds is virtually non-existent as there are no through streets in this neighborhood.
The neighborhood composition largely consists of a few clusters of townhouses and prewar co-ops. The exception to the rule is the charming art-deco-styled Beekman Place Hotel at the corner of First Avenue and 49th Street and the two post-war towers, 860 and 870 UN Plaza that front the grounds of the United Nations.
