The Knickerbocker - 308 East 72nd

The Knickerbocker, located on East 72nd Street, is a well established red brick condominium that was erected in 1996 which has about 75 apartments.  Its location on 72nd street in Manhattan has distinct advantages, including, but not limited to, the crosstown bus service, and close proximity to both the East River and Central Park.

Throughout the years, The Knickerbocker has maintained its value due to good construction and a great location. The building is a 21 story red-brick building. It has a three-story limestone base and very nice air-conditioner grills on the third-story that unfortunately are not used for the other floors. The building, which has one setback terrace, has a revolving door entrance beneath a large entrance that leads to a double-height lobby with a glass chandelier and a concierge.

The Developer and Architect of The Knickerbocker

Schuman Lichtenstein Claman & Efron was the architectural firm for the Knickerbocker. They have had the good fortune to be the architects for numerous projects in New York City.

Parker East 72nd St. Assoc. LP, of which Adam Glick is a principal, was the developer.

Location of The Knickerbocker - central for condo owners

With its central Upper East Side location, the building is very convenient to many restaurants and good neighborhood shopping and, there is good cross-town bus service.

It is not too far away from Sotheby's, the auction house on York Avenue. The nearest subway station is several blocks away on Lexington Avenue at 68th or 77th Streets. However, with the 2nd avenue subway under construction at this time, transportation only promises to get better.  That means that the probability of appreciating the value of this property will only improve over time.
