139 E 63Rd St

A mid-century cooperative constructed in 1962, this 16-story, 53-unit brick building occupies a prominent Upper East Side corner at Lexington Avenue and East 63rd Street. The limestone base, renovated canopy and marble planters frame a traditional street presence while an updated facade preserves the building’s era character. Interiors of many residences emphasize classical details: high ceilings, generous foyers, oversized windows that deliver abundant light, hardwood and parquet floors, built-in cabinetry and substantial closet storage. Apartment types range from generous one-bedroom and convertible two-bedroom layouts to multi-room family flats and larger corner residences with terraces; several units include windowed kitchens, pantries and walk-in closets. Common areas are full-service in scope — a staffed 24-hour doorman, porter and live-in resident manager, plus concierge-style staffing and a superintendent on site. The co-op provides deeded basement storage, private outdoor space in select units, and permits washer/dryer installation in apartments by approval. Pet-friendly and pied-a-terre living are allowed, with board-reviewed sublets and parental guarantor purchases considered on a case-by-case basis. Situated steps from Madison Avenue shopping, Equinox/SoulCycle amenities, and multiple subway lines (4/5/6, F, N/Q/R), the building offers classic Upper East Side living with easy access to Central Park and neighborhood services.
