Zoned R8B/R10 & PL (Special Park Improvement District), it permits residential use, providing the perfect canvas for your vision.

This five-story townhouse, currently configured as a ten-unit condominium, features two apartments per floor—a front studio and a back one-bedroom. The street-level studio (1F) boasts a private gated entrance from East 73rd Street, while the one-bedroom (1B) offers a charming private garden/patio.

The fourth floor includes a studio (4F) and one-bedroom (4B), while the fifth floor showcases a sun-drenched studio (5F) and a one-bedroom (5B) with two skylights.

Each apartment is equipped with renovated granite kitchens, stainless steel appliances, marble bathrooms with European-style showers, and individually controlled heating and air conditioning. The building underwent a comprehensive renovation in 2007, including plumbing and electrical updates, as well as elegant new marble flooring in the entry hall that complements the original mahogany details. The facade was restored in 2017, with roof replacements and skylight updates completed at that time.

59 East 73 offers incredible investment potential with versatile options: convert the property into a stunning single-family home just seconds from Central Park, maintain it as a rental investment with all units leased or sold individually, create a duplex or triplex while keeping other units as rentals, or even divide it into two duplexes and a simplex.
