The residential market features luxury condo towers, classic pre-war cooperatives, and postwar doorman buildings served by nearly every subway line in the system. Properties range from high-floor units with skyline panoramas to well-maintained co-ops along the tree-lined side streets east and west of Fifth Avenue.
