Designed by Rosario Candela and erected in 1932, 2 Beekman Place is an Art Deco masterpiece where residents enjoy 24-hour doorman and elevator operator, live-in super, bike storage, beautiful lobby, laundry room, building-wide Culligan water filtration system, landscaped and furnished roof deck with gorgeous views and complimentary WiFi, and bulk-billing reduced rates for all utilities.
Beginning on 49th Street and terminating on 51st Street, the coveted Beekman Place enclave is a tree-lined stretch of stately prewar buildings where one feels completely removed from the frenetic energy of the city yet placing one within short walking distance of every residential convenience!
2 Beekman Place is just two blocks from Peter Detmold Park, which features a dog run and river paths for easy strolls, as well as Dag Hammarskjold Plaza, Sutton Place Park, and multiple other lovely green spaces! Transportation is a breeze with the 6 train at 51st and Lex, the E/M trains at 53rd and 3rd, the M50 crosstown bus on 50th, and the Ferry on East 46th and Lex. 2 Beekman Place has a Walk Score of 96 out of 100, making it a Walker's Paradise.
Beekman Place has long been synonymous with old money and has been home to multiple members of the Rockefeller family, Huntington Hartford (heir to the A&P supermarket fortune), Gloria Vanderbilt, Irving Berlin, Greta Garbo, Ethel Barrymore, Anne Morgan, Elisabeth Marbury, Rex Harrison, Katherine Cornell, Van Santvoord Merle-Smith, William S. Paley, Alfred Lunt, Lynne Fontanne, Mary McCarthy, and John P. Marquand amongst others.
