The Seville is Robert A.M. Stern's amenity-rich Lenox Hill condominium — a 31-story RAMSA tower completed in 2001 by RFR Holding and Davis & Partners on the Second Avenue corner of East 77th Street. It is the fuller-amenity companion to Stern's nearby Chatham: where the Chatham leads with architecture, the Seville pairs the Stern design with a genuine full-service amenity program, anchored by an indoor swimming pool — a rare feature in the corridor's condominium stock.
The design is characteristic RAMSA: a limestone base chamfered at the corner, a white-and-light-brick tower disciplined by black angled piers and limestone spandrels, and a stainless-and-glass marquee at the entrance. It reads as a serious, considered building rather than a developer default, and the Stern name carries the same durable resale value it does across the firm's Manhattan work.
For buyers, the Seville's slot is clear: Stern architecture plus a deep amenity package — pool, spa-grade fitness, valet garage, roof deck — with condominium flexibility, at a Second Avenue address that keeps pricing below the prime-avenue trophy condominiums. The large layouts and the pool make it a natural family building.
Architecture and unit composition
Stern's tower rises 31 stories, with a six-story base whose lower two floors are clad in limestone, and a white-brick upper façade organized by the black piers and protruding limestone spandrels that give the building its rhythm. The roughly 90 residences run from studios and one-bedrooms through four-bedroom homes, with sizes reaching well over 5,000 square feet in the larger lines; central air and hardwood floors are standard. Sources cite around 90 apartments, slightly above some earlier figures; the offering plan controls on any specific unit. Because the building is a condominium, apartments are valued on a per-square-foot basis.
Building operations
The Seville runs as a full-service condominium: 24-hour doorman and concierge, an indoor swimming pool, a fitness center with steam room, sauna, and spa and massage rooms, an underground parking garage, a roof deck, a children's playroom, a residents' lounge, a business and conference room, a bike room, and private storage. Laundry facilities are on each floor and in-unit washer/dryers are permitted. The offering plan, house rules, and financial statements are held in The Roebling Research Library and available to clients during diligence.

Facade safety — Local Law 11

Recent sales
The Seville's resale market is an architecture-plus-amenity market. Buyers reach it wanting the Stern design and the deep amenity set — especially the pool — with condominium flexibility, and they weigh that against the corridor's prime-avenue alternatives. Turn-key, high-floor, large-layout units command the premium; dated or lower-floor inventory trades closer to the neighborhood average. The pool and spa program are genuine differentiators that support pricing and anchor the marketing, particularly to family buyers.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01451-7501) and verified listing data. Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified by The Roebling Team research desk. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage from recorded condo declarations and offering plans.
What to know if you’re buying
The amenity program is real — underwrite the carry. The pool, spa, and valet garage are genuine, but they run through common charges. Run the True Monthly Carrying Cost Calculator on the specific unit.
Condominium flexibility applies. No co-op-style financing cap, pets welcome, and pied-à-terre and sublet use permitted under the declaration. Confirm any transfer fee against the offering plan at contract.
Price to the line and the layout. The large lines carry premiums the building average hides; use same-line comparables. At these price points the mansion-tax cliffs routinely apply — run the Mansion Tax Calculator.
Value the pool for what it is. A residential indoor pool is scarce in the corridor and a durable resale asset — price it in.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with Stern and the pool. The RAMSA design and the indoor pool are documented, differentiating assets — the pool especially, given how few corridor condominiums have one. Use both.
Sell the amenity depth. The spa-grade fitness center, valet garage, and roof deck are differentiators to buyers comparing against amenity-light stock; market them.
Anchor to the line. Large-layout, high-floor lines carry premiums the average obscures. Same-line history — which we maintain — is the right anchor.
