444 East 52nd Street is a historic Art Deco building on a private cul-de-sac in the prestigious Beekman area. The building exudes timeless charm and echoes with stories of New York’s literary past. In 1934, Dorothy Parker found peace in this very apartment near the East River, marking it a significant chapter in her life. Standing tall at 13 stories, this magnificent gem retains its original allure, adorned with three majestic stone thunderbirds crowning its facade. Situated on a tranquil dead-end street, it offers unparalleled views and a serene escape that has preserved its quiet elegance since icons like Parker and Fitzgerald graced its doorstep. This intimate, full-service, white glove building welcomes residents with the convenience of a full-time doorman, elevator attendant, and live-in superintendent. Pets and pieds-à-terre are allowed.
