The facade was restored in 2017, with roof replacements and skylight updates completed at that time. 59 East 73 offers incredible investment potential with versatile options: convert the property into a stunning single-family home just seconds from Central Park, maintain it as a rental investment with all units leased or sold individually, create a duplex or triplex while keeping other units as rentals, or even divide it into two duplexes and a simplex. 59 East 73 has a FAR of 4, with 7,192 allowable sq. ft. *** The Actual Buildable FAR must be confirmed by conducting a property survey and by a submission to the NYC Dept. of Building and the NYC Landmark Preservation Commission. *** Take advantage of this rare opportunity to own a distinguished brownstone on one of America’s most desirable streets, and make it your very own.
