Perfectly positioned between York Avenue and the East River, the building is just moments from Carl Schurz Park, the East River Esplanade, neighborhood restaurants, shopping, and convenient transportation. Please note that Residence 4D is located on the fourth floor of a classic prewar walk-up, offering charm, privacy, and a rewarding lifestyle in one of the Upper East Side's most treasured cooperatives.
