The Horizon is a 44-story condominium near First Avenue and 37th Street, a Costas Kondylis design for The Glick Organization completed in 1989. Like Kondylis's earlier Manhattan Place a few blocks north, the building's defining move is its massing: canted, angled facades oriented to open the East River and skyline exposures that a conventional slab would foreclose. The result is a tower whose best lines carry sweeping open views over the east side.
The building's signature amenity is at the top — a 44th-floor enclosed rooftop swimming pool with East River views, paired with jacuzzis, a steam room, and a residents' lounge with a bar and catering kitchen. A separate lower-floor health club adds fitness facilities, a sauna, and a game room. Together they give the building a deeper amenity package than much of the corridor's inventory, supported by a 24-hour doorman, an on-site garage, and a full service model.
As a condominium, The Horizon offers the transactional flexibility the corridor's cooperative inventory does not: a roughly 20 percent minimum down payment with no co-op financing cap, permitted pied-à-terre and investor use, and condo-fast closings. Its position near the United Nations and the east-side medical corridor supports steady rental and resale demand.
Architecture and unit composition
The roughly 381 residences occupy the tower's 44 stories, with the canted facades producing a range of exposures — the most desirable lines carry unobstructed East River and skyline views. Layouts run from studios and one-bedrooms through larger multi-bedroom apartments, and the design prioritizes view capture across the upper floors.
The 44th-floor pool and lounge anchor the building's amenity identity; the lower-floor health club supports it.
Building operations
The Horizon operates as a full-service condominium with a 24-hour doorman and concierge, an on-site parking garage, and the rooftop-pool amenity suite noted above. As a large east-side condominium in a transit- and hospital-convenient location, the building carries an active owner-rental sub-market — a normal profile for an investor-friendly condominium and a factor buyers should weigh when reviewing the owner-occupancy ratio and financials.
Standard condominium buyer costs apply, along with the usual application and move-in deposits (confirm current figures at offer stage). Common charges and property taxes should be modeled at the apartment level; buyers should review the building's financials and reserve position during due diligence.

Facade safety — Local Law 11
The latest available filing classified the facade as SWARMP — Safe With A Repair and Maintenance Program: the engineer identified conditions requiring monitoring or repair before the next inspection cycle.

Recent sales
The Horizon trades as a full-service Murray Hill / Kips Bay condominium with strong East River exposures on its best lines. Recent pricing has run broadly in the $1,200–$1,350 per square foot range depending on floor, exposure, and layout — for example, an upper-floor N-line apartment closed in the mid-$1.1 million range in 2024, roughly in line with the building's recent average. View lines facing the East River command the building's premium pricing; interior exposures trade at a discount.
Pricing is heterogeneous by floor, exposure, and layout. Comparable analysis should reference recent recorded closings on the specific line and floor rather than a single building-wide average.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00969-7501) and verified listing data. Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified by The Roebling Team research desk.

What to know if you’re buying
The rooftop pool and lounge are a genuine differentiator. The 44th-floor enclosed pool with East River views is the building's signature amenity and a real day-to-day feature.
The canted massing drives the view premium. East River-facing high-floor lines carry the building's best value; interior exposures trade meaningfully lower.
Condominium flexibility applies. Roughly 20 percent down, no co-op financing cap, pied-à-terre and investor use permitted, and condo-fast closings.
Weigh the owner-occupancy profile. As a large investor-friendly condominium, the building carries an active rental sub-market; review the current ratio and financials during due diligence.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with the view line and the rooftop amenity. East River-facing high-floor inventory and the 44th-floor pool are the building's most marketable features.
Price at the line and floor. Reference recent recorded closings on the specific line rather than the building average.
The full amenity suite supports pricing. The rooftop pool, health club, and residents' lounge differentiate the building from older corridor inventory.
