55 East End Avenue 7F, New York, NY 10028

As you near the river walking east on 79th Street you're struck by the peace in the air, yet you're still feeling the city's pulse. Long the home of a refined populace (not to mention the Mayor of The City of New York) and some of the finest schools in the city, East End Avenue is only eleven blocks long but oh, what lovely blocks they are. The East River Promenade is at your doorstep, Carl Schurz Park is there to be discovered, and it's an easy off-and-on to the FDR Drive for that quick escape. The Second Avenue Subway has opened up this tranquil quarter and made it even more accessible to greater New Yorkers, but amazingly there's good value to be found in these tidy and well-run buildings. This is a large, graciously-scaled one bedroom apartment (possible 2BR) with great windows, and a sliver of river to be seen from the bedroom. The building, naturally, features everything you'd expect in the luxury market, and the staff is friendly, helpful, and attentive. Sadly, Washers and Dryers are not permitted in the apartments.
