The Arcadia is a 20-story, full-service condominium completed in 2005 on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. A boutique property with roughly mid-rise scale, its 46 residences are configured primarily as two-, three- and four-bedroom homes. Architecturally restrained rather than overtly ornamental, the building emphasizes tall, floor-to-ceiling windows and high ceilings that maximize light and street-to-sky views. Interiors typically feature generous entry foyers, formal dining areas, eat-in chef’s kitchens with stone counters and high-end appliances, hardwood floors, abundant closet storage and in-unit washers and dryers. Bathrooms are often finished with limestone or marble, radiant heated floors, soaking tubs and double vanities in primary suites; many units include private terraces, Juliet balconies or other modest private outdoor spaces. Shared amenities are extensive for a boutique condo and include a 24-hour doorman/concierge, a private fitness center with yoga/ballet studio and massage room, a screening room, a library/entertainment suite with catering kitchen, children’s playroom, and secure storage and bicycle facilities. The building is pet-friendly (weight limit applies) and provides resident services typical of full-service Manhattan condominiums. Located on a tree-lined block near Carl Schurz Park, the East River Esplanade, upscale shops and restaurants, and convenient transit, The Arcadia blends neighborhood scale with condominium conveniences and lifestyle-oriented common spaces.
