49 E 34th St Property Overview

Building Address: 49 E 34th St, New York NY 10016
Building Name: The KNOX
Zip Code:10016
Neighborhood:Murray Hill
Borough:Manhattan
Stories:0
Year Built:2007
Building Class:B

Located at 49 East 34th Street, Manhattan, NYC, The Knox (also known as Madison Park Tower) has a unique history. Completed in 2007, this 36-story building was initially intended as a condominium project by Esplanade Capital but faced financial challenges. It was designed by HTO Architect and features 110 units.

Due to financial difficulties, the building was operated as extended-stay housing by Bridgestreet Corporate Housing before its units were converted to rent-regulated apartments in 2015. This conversion came after iStar Financial acquired the property and sold its loan to CIM Group. The CIM Group settled with the New York State Attorney General's Office to pay $4.4 million to a special city fund as part of the conversion process.

Today, The Knox offers stylish studio, one, and two-bedroom layouts with modern amenities like in-unit laundry in some units and a landscaped rooftop deck offering panoramic views of Manhattan. Situated in the vibrant Murray Hill neighborhood, it benefits from excellent public transportation connectivity and proximity to major attractions like the Morgan Library and Grand Central Station.

Recently, in 2024, The Knox gained attention as Four Winds Real Estate acquired a $52 million loan from Affinius Capital for the property, solidifying its position in the NYC real estate market.

The building features approximately 2,700 square feet of ground-floor retail space, enhancing its appeal in the busy neighborhood. With a walk score and transit score of 100, residents enjoy unparalleled access to New York City's amenities.

Vaultus Professional Service Testimonial

Vaultus Professional Service testimonial To whom it may concern: I have had the opportunity to work with "Optimal Spaces" (specifically, Stephen Sunderland) over the last 18 months. Steve was hired to find a reasonably priced lease for corporate office space that would support our highly professional environment. I considered this to be a significant challenge since Manhattan was experiencing a severe shortage in available professional spaces. Honestly, I was expecting to be "sold" a space that would not meet all of our needs. However, in a short period of time, Stephen found a tower-floor space that exceeded my expectations and that was approximately 25% below the current market rates for comparable space. The most important aspect of working with Stephen is the level to which I can trust him to act in my best interest. I believe that Stephen possesses extensive knowledge of the real estate market and negotiation, is responsive, and performs his work in a highly professional manner. I am impressed by Stephen's sincere desire to understand his clients' needs. It is clear to me that Stephen is most interested in building mutually beneficial business relationships with his clients -- not the commissions they represent. I am happy to recommend "Optimal Spaces" to other growing businesses, and I look forward to working with "Optimal Spaces" again. Sincerely, Joseph J. Tutrone Vice President Vaultus Professional Service
