A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at SIXTYFOUR would likely sell for today, what it costs to sell, and what you’d walk away with — reviewed personally against condition, exposures, renovation quality, and the competition actually on the market.
1218 Second Avenue — marketed as SIXTYFOUR, and also addressed 300 East 64th Street — is a full-service Lenox Hill condominium with a genuine amenity deck, converted from a 1996 rental in 2015. In a corridor where much of the ownership stock is postwar cooperative, it offers the combination that a certain buyer prizes: condominium flexibility, a staffed lobby, and a lounge-and-roof-deck amenity program that most co-ops of its vintage simply do not have.
The building's value proposition is condo flexibility plus amenities at accessible Upper East Side pricing. The 2015 conversion by RFR Realty brought renovated kitchens and baths to an efficiently built 27-story tower, while the amenity suite — fitness center, landscaped roof deck, residents' lounge, media room, and children's playroom — gives it a family-and-lifestyle appeal broader than a bare-bones building. For buyers who want to own outright, finance flexibly, and use the apartment as a pied-à-terre or rent it when they choose, the condominium structure is the draw.
Its corner-tower geometry matters too. Large corner bay windows and a five-story base give the apartments strong light and openness, and the Second Avenue subway (Q) at 63rd/72nd Streets puts fast transit within a short walk.
Architecture and unit composition
SIXTYFOUR is a 27-story contemporary high-rise designed by Stonehill & Taylor and built by RFR Realty in 1996 as a rental, then converted to condominium ownership in 2015. The orange-brick tower is set back on a five-story base and distinguished by large corner bay windows that give the apartments generous light and skyline exposure. The 2015 conversion introduced condominium-grade kitchens and baths — Liebherr and Bosch appliances, granite, and marble bathrooms with walnut vanities.
The apartment mix runs from studios through two-bedrooms, with a private in-basement storage unit reported to convey with apartments. Units above the base capture open cross-avenue light; higher floors reward with longer views.
Building operations
SIXTYFOUR operates as a full-service condominium with a 24-hour doorman and concierge, a live-in resident manager, elevators, a fitness center with a yoga studio, a landscaped roof deck with a grilling station, wet bar, and dining seating, a residents' lounge with a library and media/screening room, a children's playroom, a bike room, and storage. Laundry is handled by a common laundry lounge. An in-building parking garage is not confirmed and should not be assumed.
As a condominium, the building offers standard condo flexibility: financing up to 90% permitted, subletting allowed with condo approval, and pied-à-terre and investment ownership permitted. Specific sublet fees and terms should be confirmed against the current condominium bylaws at offer stage.

The latest available FISP filing classified the facade as Safe — no repairs were required at that inspection. Facade inspections run on a fixed five-year cycle; future inspection, repair, and any assessment decisions remain building-specific.
How to read this, and where it comes from
QEWI = Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector — the licensed engineer the city requires to sign the report (the independent expert, not the managing agent).
Penalties shown are amounts DOB assessed against filings on record across 2005–10 to 2020–25. The FISP dataset does not record whether they were paid, contested or remain open, so treat the figure as history rather than a current balance and confirm the building’s standing with the managing agent.

Recent sales
SIXTYFOUR trades as a full-service Lenox Hill condominium, with pricing expressed on a per-square-foot basis. The building's amenity deck and condominium flexibility support pricing at a premium to bare-bones co-op product in the same corridor, while its efficient floor plans keep entry points accessible.

Market read. Most recent trades (2025) cleared a median $1,487/sf (floor-adjusted) across 1 sale. Floor-adjusted means each sale is restated to a constant mix of floors, so the figure can differ from the plain median of the sales listed above. Median listing discount 3.9% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

What to know if you’re buying
Condominium flexibility plus amenities is the value. Financing latitude, permissive subletting, pied-à-terre and investment ownership, and a genuine amenity deck — an uncommon combination at accessible Lenox Hill pricing.
The amenity program is a real differentiator. Fitness center, roof deck, residents' lounge, media room, and playroom give the building a lifestyle-and-family appeal beyond a staffed lobby.
Confirm the parking picture. An in-building garage is not confirmed; if parking matters, verify current options at offer stage.
Model the full monthly carry. Common charges plus property taxes plus utilities — underwrite the total condominium carry, not just the price.
Second Avenue subway access is a plus. Fast Q-train transit is a short walk away.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with the amenity-and-flexibility combination. The full amenity deck plus condominium structure is the building's marketing edge over co-op peers in the corridor.
Reach the flexibility buyer. Pied-à-terre, investment, and international buyers value the condo structure and 90% financing latitude.
Price against the closest match. Floor, exposure, line, and renovation level drive per-square-foot variation.
Closings are condo-fast. Condominium transactions move on a shorter timeline than the surrounding co-ops.

How to read the facts on this page. Items attributed to an offering plan describe the building as it was offered at that filing — unit mix, square footage, the amenity program as planned. They are not a statement about how the building operates today. Tax and compliance figures are sourced separately to current City records and carry their own dates. House rules, staffing and fee policy can change by board resolution without any public filing: treat every policy line here as a starting point for diligence and confirm it with the managing agent. Where this page compares one building or neighborhood to another, that is our analysis of the recorded record — it names the measure, the period and the sample it rests on, and it is an observation about medians rather than a prediction about any particular apartment.
