340 East 52nd St, Apt 2F

340 East 52nd Street is on a picturesque, tree-lined block in Turtle Bay, a calm pocket of Midtown East that puts Grand Central, the restaurants of Lexington and Third Avenues, and the Museum Mile within an easy reach. Central Park is a short subway ride north, and the E and M at Lexington Av/53 St and the 4 and 6 at Lexington Av/51 St are both close by.

Rockefeller Court is a prewar building with a wood-and-marble panelled lobby and part-time doorman, a fitness centre with a residents' lounge, a pet-washing station, dry cleaning pick-up and drop-off, a central laundry room, resident storage, bike storage, an elevator and a live-in superintendent. Residences keep their prewar character — beamed ceilings, oversized windows and marble bathrooms — with stainless kitchens and in-unit washer and dryers.
