The Treadwell: Sales launch at Art Deco-inspired Upper East Side condo with members-only services

Listings have just gone live at The Treadwell, a new 28-story condominium located just outside the Treadwell Farms Historic District at 249 East 62nd Street. The first availabilities start at $1,700,000 for one-bedrooms, $2,350,000 for two-bedrooms, and $3,950,000 for three-bedrooms. The 66 units also include The Flats, four floor-through three-bedroom residences within a townhouse-inspired five-building connected to the main condominium, but none of these have come on the market yet. Move-ins are expected to begin later this year.

 

Plans for a new condominium on the site date back to 2016, when a skyscraper designed by Rafael Viñoly was proposed. After renderings of a building featuring a hollow octagonal core were revealed, some locals came out against the “building on stilts.” However, this particular project was ultimately halted between fire safety concerns and the closing of the mechanical void loophole that would have allowed for this building’s soaring height.

 

The most recent renderings show an Art Deco-inspired design by INC Architecture & Design, a bronze and terra cotta facade, and a base that appears in harmony with its low-rise, historic neighbors while allowing for the soaring height and private terraces the modern buyer appreciates.

 

Along with access to a gracious collection of wellness and social amenities, residents of The Treadwell will receive complimentary one-year memberships to Sollis Health and Omacasa. Described as “an ER that treats you like a VIP,” concierge medicine group Sollis Health offers everything from 24-hour urgent care to in-home treatment to expert care coordination; highly appropriate for a building located near some of the city's top medical institutions like Lenox Hill Hospital, Hospital for Special Surgery, New York Presbyterian-Weill Cornell Medical Center, and Rockefeller University Hospital.

 

Medical care would appear to be the only thing Omacasa does not provide: The hospitality firm sources and curates a collection of the finest sommeliers, chefs, fitness instructors, artists, fashion designers, and other cultural professionals in the city to create unforgettable experiences in members’ homes or another luxurious locale. An example seen on its LinkedIn page describes a caviar showcase tasting menu led by a Michelin-star chef.

Area attractions include the Bloomingdale’s flagship, popular restaurants and bars, and Bridgemarket Trader Joe’s, which has been described as the city’s most beautiful supermarket. Transportation options include the Lexington Avenue/63rd Street F and Q trains, the 59th Street 4/5/6 and N/R/W trains, and the Roosevelt Island tramway.

 

Additionally, new condos like Archive Lofts, The Leyton, The Clare, and 200 East 59th Street have risen on surrounding blocks in recent years. Archive Lofts is set to bring not only new housing units, but AIRE Ancient Baths' second New York outpost, to the neighborhood.
