Douglaston Development, a premier developer with decades of experience creating large and complex projects across New York City, has announced the launch of sales at 175 East 82nd Street, a stunning 38-story brick condominium tower within Manhattan’s coveted Upper East Side neighborhood. Designed by award-winning architecture and interior design firm CetraRuddy and located at the corner of East 82nd Street and Third Avenue, 175 East 82nd Street offers 73 one- to six-bedroom residences including four stunning penthouses with Central Park views.
Located in close proximity to Central Park, acclaimed public and private schools, Museum Mile, A-list restaurants, shops, and multiple subway lines, living at 175 East 82nd Street allows for convenient access to the Upper East Side's most sought-after destinations.
“This development is emblematic of iconic Upper East Side living, thoughtfully positioned on a corridor that delivers the refined ‘quiet luxury’ lifestyle today’s discerning condominium buyers seek,” said Jeffrey Levine, Chairman of Douglaston Development, Levine Builders and Clinton Management. “The launch of sales marks an important milestone and demonstrates what can be achieved by the right team when developing in one of the world’s most complex and dynamic cities.”
“The expertise, skill, and meticulous attention to detail behind 175 East 82nd Street sets it apart from all other buildings in the neighborhood," said Steven Charno, President of Douglaston Development. "Every detail was considered, refined, and executed with real craftsmanship by an exceptional team carefully assembled to deliver the highest quality product possible."
Rising 478 feet above the skyline, the 175 East 82nd Street condominiums feature gracious entry foyers with wide plank flooring, separate laundry rooms, powder rooms, ample closets and storage, oversized living and dining rooms, and a variety of kitchen layouts designed to be the centerpiece of the home. Most bedrooms include ensuite bathrooms and primary suites will showcase custom vanities and warm wood detailing throughout. Kitchens include hand selected stone, the latest in appliance technology and custom proscenium-inspired millwork.
A defining feature of the building is its hand-laid brick façade, crafted from custom Endicott Desert Ironspot brick, an iron-rich clay chosen for its natural variation and character. Inspired by the Art Deco architecture that defines the neighborhood, the handcrafted brick creates subtle shifts in color and texture as natural light moves across the façade. Deeply rooted in its surroundings, the building reflects the same exceptional detail found throughout the building.
“Our approach was to create a building that feels rooted in the Upper East Side, balancing the scale, materiality, rhythm, and character of the streetscape with a distinctly contemporary perspective,” said John Cetra, Founding Principal of CetraRuddy. “The hand-laid brick façade draws on the craftsmanship and ingenuity of traditional masonry construction, while crisp detailing gives the building a fresh expression and creates an ideal setting for today’s modern and sophisticated buyer.”
“When designing the interiors, we knew the experience of residing at 175 East 82nd Street would be shaped by the details, so we designed from the inside out,” said Nancy Ruddy, Founding Principal and Executive Director of Interior Design of CetraRuddy. “Embracing natural light was key. We created refined detailing that would be highlighted by the changing light that permeates each home through the gracious windows. The careful textures, materials, and artistry in the home bring a sense of depth and warmth to every space.”
Amenities span the 24th and 25th floors and include a 40-foot indoor pool, fitness center complete with a dedicated yoga and Pilates studio and sauna, resident lounge, outdoor terrace loggia, screening lounge, and children's playroom. The lobby is anchored by a limestone colonnade, a sculptural stone reception desk, and a suspended chandelier. The building also features 3,000 square feet of ground-floor retail and private automated parking included with the purchases of penthouse residences.
The attention to detail and precision evident in every aspect of 175 East 82nd Street is made possible by the years of experience, partnership, and close collaboration between Douglaston Development and its vertically integrated suite of construction and property management divisions, Levine Builders and Clinton Management. From the earliest stages of planning through final handoff, each of Jeff Levine’s affiliated companies have worked in lockstep to ensure all aspects of the project followed the team’s vision, timeline, and purpose to create a truly unique, valuable opportunity for condominium buyers on the Upper East Side.
