Overview of Dag Hammarskjold Tower at 240 East 47th Street

The 43-story Dag Hammarskjold Tower at 240 East 47th Street in Midtown East is a New York City post-war classic. The condominium sits within sight of the United Nations campus,which lends the Turtle Bay neighborhood a stately international flair. The tower is named after the second Secretary-General of the United Nations, whose commemorative bust stands at the entrance and who is also the namesake for the block-long Dag Hammarskjold Plaza in front of the white-brick skyscraper, which offers a farmers’ market on weekends and preserves direct East River views from even the skyscraper’s lower floors, with view corridors that the skyscraper’s distinctive, angled corner opens further yet.

Upper-floor apartments offer spectacular views of the Chrysler Building, the Empire State, and the rest of the Midtown skyline in all its glory. In addition to a full staff that includes a 24-hour doorman, concierge, resident manager, and porters, amenities include landscaped public and private gardens, a 43rd-floor swimming pool, a fitness center, a roof deck, a penthouse-level Skyline Lounge, and children’s playroom. Residents also get video security, short term cold storage, basement storage, a bike room and on-site parking. Top rated shopping and restaurants–like Sushi Yasuda and Momosan Ramen & Sake–can be found in every direction. Pets are welcome.

This "white glove" full-service condo tower offers "spectacular" amenities including a "stunning" top-floor indoor pool with "50-mile views," fitness center and "enormous" sky lounge. The "tasteful" 1980s building boasts "impeccable" 24/7 staff and sits in a "prime" Midtown East location near the UN, where residents enjoy "excellent" access to dining, shopping and transportation. The "international" atmosphere is enhanced by the weekly farmer's market at adjacent Dag Hammarskjold Plaza, while the "efficient" building management and "professional" board maintain this "well-established" residence that "has it all."
