865 United Nations Plz

A 16-story, 1927-built boutique condominium on Midtown East’s United Nations Plaza, this prewar Tudor-style building contains 38 primarily one-bedroom residences that blend classic architectural details with modern renovations. The exterior presents masonry and period ornamentation that complement a modest, landscaped courtyard. Interiors typically feature high ceilings, hardwood floors, decorative moldings and generous foyers that read as flexible space for dining or home offices. Kitchens and baths in many units have been fully updated with stone countertops, custom cabinetry and upscale stainless-steel appliances; several apartments retain wood-burning fireplaces and original trim restored to period condition. Shared spaces are small-scale but service-oriented: a staffed 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, an elegant lobby, central laundry room, package storage and a bike room. The building maintains a pet-friendly policy and enforces smoke-free indoor standards. Street-level parking garages and convenient access to the FDR Drive, nearby subway lines, Grand Central and neighborhood retail make daily errands and commuting straightforward. The location offers river and United Nations views from higher floors and places residents within walking distance of restaurants, cafes and greenways along the East River.
