This sun-drenched, south-facing one-bedroom features a private balcony with sweeping views of the Manhattan skyline from the East River to Central Park — a coveted feature in a building where listings like this are few and far between.
Situated on the 28th floor, the apartment is bathed in natural light throughout the day, creating a warm, open atmosphere perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The home is complemented by low common charges and property taxes, rare for a building of this caliber — offering luxury without compromise.
This full-service building offers an impressive array of amenities designed for comfort and convenience.

Wellness and relaxation are covered with a fitness center and a beautifully landscaped roof deck, while on-site parking, private storage, and a central laundry room add to everyday ease. Plus, the building welcomes pets, making it a perfect fit for all lifestyles.
Nestled at the intersection of 79th Street and Second Avenue, Continental Towers places you in the heart of the Upper East Side with effortless access to local favorites and iconic institutions alike.
