1482 First Avenue Prepares For Vertical Construction on Manhattan’s Upper East Side
Construction is about to go vertical at 1482 First Avenue, the site of a 30-story residential tower on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Designed by Hill West Architects and developed by Alchemy-ABR, the 395-foot-tall structure will span roughly 161,000 square feet and yield 89 rental units. Eighteen of the apartments will be rent-stabilized for residents earning 80 percent or less of the area median income (AMI). The project will also include nearly 1,500 square feet of commercial space. Paris Forino is the interior designer for property, which is comprised of two conjoined interior lots by the intersection of First Avenue and East 77th Street.
