Building: 49 East 96th Street

Located in the luxurious Carnegie Hill neighborhood, 49 East 96th Street exemplifies the best of Manhattan living. This 19-story building was built in 1929 and hosts 64 apartments. The building’s exterior is made of beige bricks and decorated in the art deco style. The limestone base and sidewalk landscaping add class to this historic property. The eye-catching brickwork and impressive windows distinguish the building from many other luxury properties in the area. Residents enjoy 24-hour doorman service, white-glove treatment, and the peace and quiet of a building located in the center of a block, rather than on a major avenue.
