The mixed-use buildings are situated on the east side of York Avenue between East 72nd and East 73rd Streets. Combined, the two sites offer 50,030 buildable square feet on a largely undeveloped corner of the Upper East Side.

The properties are located in Lenox Hill, a vibrant section of the Upper East Side, with a wide variety of dining and entertainment options. It is also located steps from the 3.3-acre John Jay Park.
