New Yorkers seeking modern amenities in a historic venue need look no further: Macklowe Properties brings a melding of sophistication and comfort to 737 Park, the neighborhood’s newest destination for luxury condominium residences. The transformation-in-progress aims to bring a contemporary spin to the celebrated pre-war masterpiece, originally constructed in 1940. The development, located on the corner of 71st Street and Park Avenue, joins an elite array of penthouse apartments that currently line this storied corridor.

These Upper East Side condos feature large communal spaces and bedrooms, solid oak floors, and new casement windows, as well as central air conditioning and heating systems with controls in each room. Master bathrooms are outfitted with top-of-the-line features, from large Italian marble countertops to heated floors. Kitchens by Varenna feature glass and aluminum cabinetry complete with under-cabinet LED lighting, marble floors, Miele stainless steel appliances, wine coolers and Franke sinks. Every inch of these stylish kitchens is sleek and modern.

In addition to the spacious condos, the luxury building also boasts a number of premium amenities, including a 24-hour doorman and elevator operators, a private fitness center equipped with cardio and weight training machines, a children’s playroom and ample storage space for bicycles and strollers. 737 Park Avenue finds itself surrounded by a number of top educational institutions and cultural landmarks, making it a prime location for professionals and families alike. The Guggenheim Museum, Cooper Hewitt National Design Museum, Metropolitan Museum, Neue Galerie and the Frick are all within easy walking distance.

Notable upscale dining such as Parisian Steakhouse, Bistro Le Steak and popular seafood and sushi restaurant, Atlantic Grill, are just steps away. A number of local grocery stores like Gourmet Garage East are also in walking distance, and provide delivery services, for those who prefer to dine and entertain at home.

Just a stone’s throw from Central Park, the summer and fall seasons bring a number of special events to the neighborhood including the Summerstage Concert Series, the 92nd Street Y, Shakespeare in the Park, and more. Keep warm during cooler months inside music venues like Session 73 or Brandy’s Piano Bar. If you show up on the right night, you may even catch a surprise performance from Woody Allen at the renowned Cafe Carlyle, located a few blocks north on 76th Street.

The luxury amenities and lively neighborhood make 737 Park Avenue an ideal residence for young couples and families seeking the Upper East Side Manhattan lifestyle.
