A 29-story post-war high-rise in one of the most exciting sections of Manhattan, The Ellington offers Manhattanites a high-end luxury experience right by the Theater District and Central Park. The Ellington, located at 260 West 52nd Street on the corner of 8th Avenue, has a red-brick base with ribbed piers beneath a setback tower with numerous private balconies. Built in 1987, The Ellington was one of the first modern luxury rental apartment buildings to lead the way in Midtown West’s revitalization.
The 261 studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments in The Ellington have a clean, contemporary design. The living rooms feature oak parquet floors, tinted thermo-pane windows, and, in some cases, wood burning fireplaces. The modern kitchens boast European-style cabinetry and dishwashers, while the bathrooms feature ceramic tile baths and tri-view mirrors. Most of the post-war apartments in The Ellington have private balconies as well, and some boast large terraces.
The Ellington comes equipped with many amenities such as 24-hour doorman and concierge service, a fitness center, and laundry machines on every floor. Additionally, private storage rooms are available to residents, as is a room specifically designated for bicycle storage. Manhattan’s Midtown West is brimming with activity too; the Theater District is home to world-class actors and singers, and Times Square is one of the busiest business districts in Manhattan. And with Central Park close by, The Ellington offers a luxury lifestyle in an area that offers tranquility as well.
