A warm greeting home by a friendly staff sets the tone for another refreshing evening at the Caldwell. Standing in a prime area of Manhattan for culture and recreation, the Caldwell is elegant, but not overstated. It was built to provide the value of living in an owner-and-managed property, with a view for the future.

Another fine collaboration between Glenwood Management and architect Costas Kondylis, The Lucerne is among the foremost no-fee rental listings on the Upper East Side. The Lucerne makes a strong first impression, thanks to the tasteful landscaping that frames the limestone-accented entrance, which in turn gives way to an elegant two-story lobby. With spacious rental apartments ranging in size and style: one-bedroom, two-bedroom apartments, sprawling three- and four-bedroom apartment homes and duplexes are available.

This neighborhood has undergone dramatic change for the better since the Somerset was erected in 1977. At that time, this was a fairly desolate stretch of York Avenue. Over the next few years, many major luxury apartment towers such as the River Terrace, One East River Place, and the Belaire sprouted in the immediate vicinity. In late 1998, Sotheby's began a major expansion on its site. This building, which occupies the entire avenue blockfront between 72nd and 73rd Streets, has attractions of its own including superb views, a driveway, lushly landscaped entrance and many balconies.

Standing in a waterfront neighborhood, Manhattan Park's four rental buildings are clustered around a large, landscaped village green. The buildings' stunning marble lobbies and mezzanines have high-speed, mahogany-paneled elevators.
