From the listing

Welcome to Apartment 8E at The Senate East, a beautifully updated alcove studio that offers the rare combination of space, light, quiet, and open city views. Located in the back of the building and facing north, the apartment feels bright, serene, and removed from the bustle of Midtown, creating a true retreat in the heart of Turtle Bay. Newly updated, this oversized studio is configured with distinct areas for living, dining, and sleeping. It features exceptional storage with three closets and a generous dressing area leading to the bathroom. Apartment 8E is comfortable, functional, and move-in ready. The Senate East is a well-established full-service condominium on one of Turtle Bay’s most charming tree-lined blocks. Tenants enjoy a 24-hour doorman, resident manager, laundry room, a renovated lobby, and updated hallways. Moments from excellent restaurants, shopping, and the 6, E, and M trains, this is an opportunity to lease a turnkey home in a prime Midtown East location. (Please note: the condo charges a one time set of application fees that total $1,965 plus a credit/background check of $125 per applicant/guarantor. They also collect a $500 move-in and $500 move-out refundable deposit).
