New Development in Turtle Bay, NYC

1009 Second Avenue

1009 Second Avenue is a planned 19-story condominium in Turtle Bay, rising to 210 feet and designed by Issac & Stern Architects. The facade employs large glass enclosures and staggered metal framing to create a contemporary elevation that emphasizes transparency and depth. Public imagery presents a careful balance of glazed volumes and articulated metal elements, giving the building a distinct modern profile within Midtown East. Located at 1009 Second Avenue between East 53rd and East 54th Streets, the property sits in the Midtown East context near the United Nations. The project includes a ground-floor restaurant and is set among the office buildings and residential blocks that define this part of Manhattan, with convenient access to local services and transit. The condominium will contain 29 residences. From the 14th floor upward the design calls for one apartment per floor, each with expansive private terraces and architect-described views toward the East River. Public renderings show open layouts with kitchens organized around dining peninsulas and integrated appliances; large glazed elevations are intended to bring natural light into the homes. Reported residential amenities include a main lobby, fitness center, residents' lounge, spa with hammam and cold sauna, rooftop terrace, landscaped rear courtyard, bike room, elevator, in-unit washer/dryer and a pet-friendly policy.
