200 East 79th Street is the kind of well-finished, full-service new condominium that defines the modern Yorkville market — turn-key product on a prominent corner, at pricing more accessible than the central avenues. Completed in 2011 on the northeast corner of Third Avenue and 79th Street, it brought a contemporary, amenity-equipped building with high-end residential finishes to one of the most walkable, transit-rich stretches of the eastern Upper East Side.
The location is convenience-first Yorkville. The Third-and-79th corner sits in the heart of the neighborhood's retail and dining, a short walk from the 77th Street subway, the Second Avenue line, and Central Park to the west, with the East River esplanade to the east. For buyers who want a brand-new, full-service condominium with condominium flexibility on the Upper East Side without paying central-avenue pricing, 200 East 79th is squarely in that value-oriented new-development tier.
Architecture and unit composition
The 2011 building is a contemporary masonry-and-glass condominium on a prominent Third Avenue corner, with the corner exposures and large windows that come with the site. The roughly 45 residences were finished to a high contemporary standard — marble baths with radiant floors, deep soaking tubs and steam showers in the primary suites, SieMatic cabinetry, professional-grade appliances, and in-unit laundry — designed for turn-key luxury rather than pre-war character.
The mid-size unit count gives the building its own usable internal comparable set, and individual apartments are best evaluated on floor, exposure, and layout.
Building operations
200 East 79th operates as a full-service condominium with doorman/concierge service, a fitness center, and a terrace; apartments carry in-unit washer/dryers and the high-end finishes noted above. Pets are permitted under the building rules. With roughly 45 residences carrying staffing and amenities, common charges reflect the service level and the building's new-construction systems.
Buyers should review the offering plan, current financials, board minutes, and reserve study during due diligence — standard practice for a recent-construction building, where façade, mechanical, and amenity reserves warrant attention.

Facade safety — Local Law 11
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.

200 East 79th trades as a condominium, so pricing is read on a price-per-square-foot basis, and it prices in the value-oriented Yorkville new-development tier — a well-finished, full-service building on a prime corner at pricing below the central avenues, with the better-exposed and higher-floor residences carrying the premium. With roughly 45 units, the building offers its own internal comparable set, and pricing is apartment-specific: floor, exposure, layout, and finish drive the variation. We underwrite each unit against the building's own trades and the broader Yorkville condominium set.
