Carter's Review

The vast majority of Manhattan apartment buildings that do not face on parks or rivers do not have much open space, or "light and air."

The Concorde is fortunate in that it faces to the north, directly across 65th Street, Manhattan House, a pioneering, full-block apartment complex that is set back on its landscaped grounds. Furthermore, the Concorde's "L"-shaped tower has its short end facing 65th Street, opening up even more "open space."

Since it was erected in 1965, this section of the Upper East Side has undergone a major renaissance with many new luxury high-rise apartment buildings. The area is now quite dramatic, for the Upper East Side, with an impressive skyline, many restaurants and good neighborhood stores.

This 24-story building between Third and Second Avenues was converted to a condominium in 1989 and has 287 apartments. The doorman building has many balconies, a concierege, a health club and a garage. Cross-town bus service is nearby and a subway station is at Lexington Avenue and 67th Street.

Although Second and Third Avenue have considerable traffic, some of the loveliest sidestreets are nearby.
