301 E 79th St

Continental Towers is a 36-story condominium built in 1974 with 149 residences primarily configured as one- and two-bedroom layouts. The exterior reads as a high-rise tower typical of the era, set at the northeast corner of East 79th Street and Second Avenue on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Typical apartments feature hardwood floors, generous closets and formal entry foyers; many units include eat-in or open-plan kitchens, separate dining areas, and windowed bathrooms. Multiple residences offer private outdoor space in the form of balconies and skyline-facing exposures. Building common areas comprise a staffed lobby with 24-hour doorman and concierge, renovated corridors, a landscaped roof deck and garden, fitness center, central laundry, bicycle and storage rooms, and an on-site parking garage. The property allows pets and permits washers/dryers in-unit; management includes a live-in superintendent and dedicated concierge/doorman staff. Positioned steps from the Q, 4/5/6 lines, nearby grocery options and the green spaces of Central Park and Carl Schurz Park, the building blends full-service condominium living with a strong Upper East Side neighborhood setting.
