The Upper East Side has long been known for the proliferation of stately prewar coops lining Fifth and Park Avenues, but over the past year we’ve seen a flurry of new condo developments that are bringing a new level of modern luxury to the UES. The First Avenue corridor is one of the hottest areas for new development in Manhattan right now, with several notable projects recently opened and in construction. The Charles, located on First Avenue between 72nd and 73rd Street, is bound to be one of the neighborhood’s highlights when it is complete in 2015.

The 32-story, modern residential building includes twenty-seven full floor residences and features a cutting-edge glass exterior.

With interiors designed by David Collins Studios, the remaining available, exclusive full-floor units feature four bedrooms and four bathrooms—a rare find in Manhattan—spread out over nearly 3,100+ square feet of living space. The homes all have four exposures revealing incomparable city and river views through floor-to-ceiling windows. Residents enjoy large eat-in kitchens, radiant heat flooring throughout the apartment, and the convenience of their own vented laundry room with side-by-side washer and dryer units.
