The Fairmont, a 33-story rental apartment building, was erected in 1979 at 300 East 75th Street. It has many balconies and a curved driveway with fountains leading to a two-story-high lobby.

The full-service building has 470 apartments with river and city views, health club, landscaped private garden, 24-hour attended garage, laundry room, maid service, valet, nursery and rooftop sun deck. Bathrooms boast mirrored, double-door cabinetry and marble baths, and kitchens are loaded with modern appliances.

Many tenants say they chose the Fairmont as their home because they like the dynamic Upper East Side location on 2nd Avenue; the beige-brick tower is close to unbeatable restaurants, and who wouldn't love having a choice of the world's cuisine within a five minute walk in all directions? Other residents enjoy their morning jogs in Central Park, or need fast access to Grand Central Terminal. Many appreciate the attentive, 24-doormen service, or the pleasure of the on-site fitness center and children's playroom.
