YIMBY has an exclusive new rendering of 175 East 82nd Street, a 39-story residential tower under construction in the Yorkville section of Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Designed by CetraRuddy Architecture and developed by Douglaston Development, the 478-foot-tall structure will span 287,632 square feet and yield 73 condominium units in one- to six-bedroom layouts, including three duplex penthouses. The building will also contain approximately 3,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space. The property is alternately addressed as 1448 Third Avenue and located at the corner of Third Avenue and East 82nd Street.
The aerial rendering looks west toward Central Park, previewing the southern and eastern sides of the multifaceted crown, which will be illuminated at night. These upper levels will house the duplex penthouses and their private terraces. Above, the mechanical levels are integrated into the architectural design with earth-toned brick cladding and metal grille covers.
The masonry façade has continued to enclose the tower since our last update in late-February, when the reinforced concrete superstructure had recently topped out. The tower crane was since dismantled from the eastern elevation along Third Avenue, and the multi-toned brick envelope now covers the building beyond its midpoint.

The concrete formwork and metal shoring have been removed from the pinnacle. An assembly of scaffolding and netting covers portions of the crown in preparation for its cladding in the coming months. Below, crews are continuing to form the fenestration with CMU blocks.

Residential amenities will be located on levels 21 and 22 and will include a swimming pool and a fitness center with a yoga room and wellness sauna. There will also be a lounge, an outdoor terrace, a flexible screening room, and a children’s playroom. The entrance will be situated along East 82nd Street, leading to a limestone colonnade-lined lobby with high ceilings.
Young New Development at Brown Harris Stevens is the exclusive sales and marketing team assigned to the project.
The nearest subway from the property is the Q train at the 86th Street station at the corner of Second Avenue and East 83rd Street.
175 East 82nd Street is slated for completion in fall 2027, as noted on site.

This is a nice use of Roman brick, though I would have preferred a little less color variation. The angled spandrels are unexpected. The whole is evocative of the 1930s.
Looks like my WPA built grade school.
Is that a good thing?
Studios starting at just $1.01M….
The third image down of the three different towers makes a nice composition. The form of this new tower is very nice and definitely has some 1930s vibe going on. The spandrels are very nice. The speckled color of the brick becomes too monotonous from the bottom all the way up. The building podium could have been different with one of the colors used more uniformly. The darkest bricks could have been used as a design element at the corners. Art Deco examples got this right. This just look like speckled wallpaper slapped on everything. However, it’s definitely better than average and the intention is spot on.
The finely detailed cladding is beautiful and distinctive, but I wouldn’t live in a brick high-rise; the Local Law 11 inspections every five years with their sidewalk sheds are a real burden, both for residents and the neighborhood.
I believe there are new rules in the works esp for new buildings. I am confused about the details but the time frame recommendations are extended, at lease every 6 years.
I once encountered a man doing LL11 inspections. He mentioned that some of the newer glass buildings are going to have a lot of problems in the future.
Local Law ll applies to all buildings over 6 stories, regardless of facade material.
But brick takes much more time to inspect.
This rendering is more about Manhattan than the building..
The orange brick is a really nice choice. Set this apart from the many, many, many “limestone” building that have gone up in recent years.
This is the “real” UES. Yorkville is further east.
