1487 First Avenue is a newly constructed 35-story residential building located on Manhattan’s Upper East Side at the southwestern corner of First Avenue and East 78th Street. The project was developed by Carmel Partners, who purchased the property from Robert Chou for $73.5 million in early 2022. Designed by Hill West Architects, the building rises 404 feet tall and contains 206 condominium units alongside 7,120 square feet of ground-floor retail space and a cellar level.
Construction began with foundation work in late 2023, progressing rapidly as the reinforced concrete superstructure rose above street level. The building features a façade combining floor-to-ceiling glass framed by an irregular grid of light gray brick, with a denser masonry presence on the lower levels that gives way to larger glass expanses on the upper stories. Multiple setbacks occur at the top of the podium and below the mechanical extension, adding architectural interest to the structure.
The development benefited from a $153 million construction loan secured from Northwestern Mutual in September 2023, enabling swift progress. By June 2024, the building topped out, with its distinctive gray brick and glass façade enclosing the tower fully to its midpoint. The overall design and construction reflect a modern architectural approach fitting the Lenox Hill section of the Upper East Side, contributing a significant new residential presence to the neighborhood.
