The Empire has staked its claim as the northern anchor of the top super-luxury condominiums along Third Avenue in the East 60’s and 70’s. The developer of the intimate building, which has approximately 72 apartments, was developed as a joint venture of Davis & Partners and RFR Holdings. The architectural firms of Hartman-Cox Architects were the designers of the project and the noted firm of Schuman Lichtenstein Clamon- Efron, who also designed 145 East 76th and The Sienna at 188 East 76th Street were the designers of the apartments’ elegant interiors.
