110 E 87Th St

A boutique pre-war condominium completed in 1939, this 12-story, small-scale building contains 24 units configured mainly as studios and one-bedrooms. The façade combines stone and brick with Art Deco detailing; the lobby and elevator banks retain Deco-era ornamentation that reinforces the building’s period character. Typical apartments show prewar elements — high beamed ceilings, crown and baseboard moldings, hardwood floors, casement windows, and sizeable closets — alongside modern updates such as recessed lighting, granite counters, and some apartments’ windowed kitchens. Common areas and services include a full-time doorman/concierge, a live-in superintendent, on-site laundry, bicycle storage, and rentable private storage in the basement. Outdoor options are limited to modest private terraces or small balconies on select units and a communal roof deck. Building rules are condominium-friendly: pied-à-terre ownership, investors, subletting and pets are permitted (pets case-by-case in some listings), and buyers may finance up to typical lender limits. Located on the Upper East Side near Park and Lexington Avenues, the building sits two blocks from Central Park and close to Museum Mile, major subway lines, crosstown buses, and neighborhood groceries and shops, positioning it as a convenient, character-rich option for those seeking prewar detail with full-service staff.
