470 Second Ave is part of the sprawling Kips Bay Court complex, a collection of eight towers that each have an intimate, exclusive feel thanks to there being only six apartments on each floor. The development features wide, lighted walkways lined with trees and children's playgrounds, giving it a small community feel in the heart of the city.

This doorman building features its own fitness center, elevators, parking, and valet services. The studio, one -, two- and three-bedroom homes feature a full suite of GE appliances and heat, hot water, and gas are all included in the rent. All of the retail shops, grocery stores, and nightlife options of Second and Third Avenue are just a short walk away, as are several transportation options.
