Modern Lexington Avenue condo with an active sponsor presence and busy street-level surroundings.
Built in 2018, this 61-unit building has an active sponsor presence wrapping up sales eight years post-construction. While the building itself has a thin operational record with zero open housing-code violations, the surrounding blocks carry a highly active commercial footprint. Three things to know:
Active sponsor sales eight years after construction. Out of 48 sales across the condo declaration in the last year, 23 were sponsor sales. The original developer is still active and selling units, meaning they likely retain a significant portion of the building's voting interest.
Restaurant venting and food odors nearby. Within three blocks, there were 37 food establishment complaints last year, concentrating around the ground-floor retail spaces, with the most recent call on August 2, 2026. This dense food-service presence can often lead to odors or exhaust venting through shared lines.
A high-traffic stretch of Lexington Avenue. The blocks surrounding the building are highly active, logging 159 calls for homeless assistance within three blocks last year, with 126 of those flagged as non-chronic. There were also 84 panhandling complaints in the same window.
