From the listing
Perched on the coveted 41st floor — the top of the building — this sun-filled one-bedroom, 1.5-bath residence at The Vanderbilt Condominium offers 850 square feet of thoughtfully renovated living space and some of the most spectacular views in Murray Hill. Soaring 17-foot ceilings in the living room are matched by stacked windows, including a dramatic clerestory above the main window, that rise with the room to flood it with natural light and showcase open city, river, and park views. East and North exposures keep the home bright throughout the day. The apartment is scheduled to start a fresh renovation on 10/19/26: new wood flooring, new bathroom vanities, and a new entrance closet door will all be in place before move-in. A full-size washer and dryer are included in the unit — a rare convenience at this price point. The Vanderbilt Condominium is a full-service luxury building offering a 24-hour doorman and concierge, plus a free health club with a swimming pool for residents. Ideally located in Murray Hill, the building is just steps from Grand Central Terminal and its shops and dining concourse, a short walk to the United Nations, and surrounded by some of the city's best restaurants and hotels.
