Carter’s Review

"The Highpoint is a slender, 48-story tower on the southwest corner of Second Avenue at 250 East 40th Street. 

It was erected in 1988 by East/West Venture (Haseko) and Toru Nagayama and is one of several tall apartment towers in a dense cluster north of the Queens-Midtown Tunnel. "

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "well-situated" Midtown residence offers "prime convenience" just "two blocks from Grand Central," featuring an "impeccably staffed" lobby with "attentive" 24-hour doorman service. Residents praise the "comprehensive" amenity package, including a "spacious" health club complete with swimming pool and "state-of-the-art" cardio equipment. The "central location" provides easy access to "multitude of shopping and dining options," while the "quiet parks" nearby offer welcome respite from city bustle.
