The Belaire is a 50-story, white-glove condominium tower completed in 1988 on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Its mix of residences ranges from studios and one-bedrooms to expansive three- and four-bedroom layouts plus full-floor penthouses, many with multiple exposures and river or skyline views. Interiors commonly feature high ceilings, oversized windows, open floor plans or formal dining areas, granite counters, hardwood floors, generous closet and storage provisions and in-unit washer/dryer hookups; select homes include terraces and private outdoor space. Shared facilities are extensive and privately managed: a residents-only health and fitness club with a glass-enclosed 60-foot heated pool, sauna and steam rooms, yoga studio, children’s playroom, conference and meeting rooms, and private storage. Full-time doorman, concierge, live-in building manager and on-site porters support white-glove service; valet and resident garage parking are available. The property sits on a quiet cul-de-sac near East River promenades, multiple small parks and cultural institutions, with strong transit access including the nearby Second Avenue subway and multiple bus lines. Pets are permitted and the building’s policies allow investors, pied-à-terre use and subletting under prescribed terms.
