152 E 118Th St

Embelesar 118 is an eight-story residential condop completed in 2010 in East Harlem, offering primarily one- and two-bedroom homes along with studio layouts. The façade and massing are contemporary and stoop-free, with a staffed attended lobby and elevator access serving every floor. Interiors emphasize light and durable finishes: wide-plank oak floors, oversized energy-efficient windows, high ceilings (typical 8.5–9'), and open-plan kitchens trimmed with espresso-stained cabinetry, Caesarstone counters and modern GE appliances. Many units include in-unit Bosch washer/dryers, pantries or foyer entries, and some feature private terraces; for units without terraces there are two furnished outdoor common terraces and a landscaped community garden. Shared building amenities include a fitness room that opens onto a patio area, a roof deck, bike room racks, package room with cold storage, individual storage cages, and an on-site parking garage (waitlist typically applies). Management presence consists of a part-time doorman/attendant, virtual doorman system, and a resident super. The property has had HDC/AHC income-restricted offerings and a 25-year tax abatement, with primary-residence and subletting rules that vary by unit program. The block-level location places residents within walking distance of transit (2/3, 4/5/6 lines and cross-town options), East River Plaza retail, and nearby institutional campuses, supporting a neighborhood-oriented urban lifestyle.
