East 62nd Street Preserves Uptown Elegance Close to Midtown

Buyers looking for apartments on the Upper East Side face a choice between the charming blocks of the Upper East Side Historic District — most of which is west of Lexington Avenue — or the blocks farther east, which are being rezoned to allow more residential density in the form of skyscrapers.

But there is one special exception.  East 62nd Street has both the Upper East Side Historic District — between Fifth Avenue and Lexington Avenue — and the Treadwell Farms Historic District, between Third and Second Avenues.  Beaux Arts Mansions and elegant rows of Greek Revival town houses have made this a favorite street for buyers who are seeking an old world neighborhood feel along with close proximity to midtown.  

On East 62nd Street, there are unusual opportunities to have open sky views from a high floor apartment, on a sunny, quiet street with a row of historic townhouses, like 201 East 62nd, #19D.

This serene block is close to some of the most prestigious research hospitals in the world. Rockefeller University Hospital, Memorial Sloan Kettering, Weil Cornell and HSS are developing cutting edge technologies.

With world class dining in the immediate neighborhood — such as The Pierre, La Goulue, Daniel, and Il Mulino — East 62nd Street represents the intersection between Upper East Side luxury and the dynamism of midtown.
