From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Set in the heart of Lenox Hill, 167 East 61st Street was developed in 1984 with a distinctive trefoil tower design by architect Philip Birnbaum, featuring wraparound bronze topped balconies and a dramatic double height lobby with a two-story waterfall. The cooperative owns its land outright, removing any ground-lease concern. High on the 28th floor, this bright 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence frames sweeping Manhattan skyline views through floor-to-ceiling windows and from its private balcony. Classic parquet floors, grand marble columns, and generous proportions lend timeless character, while the kitchen offers a blank canvas for your personal renovation vision. This white-glove co-op offers 24-hour doorman and concierge, fitness center, private community garden, roof deck, on-site garage, and storage. Pet friendly, up to 80% financing permitted. A 2% flip tax is payable by the purchaser. Steps to Central Park, Bloomingdales and multiple subway lines.
