The Fairfax

The Fairfax is a luxury New York rental located in the desirable Upper East Side. The prewar building features a brown-brick facade with a three-story limestone base and an elegant entrance marquee. Erected in 1927, the Fairfax was originally built to warehouse silver, later becoming the FBI's New York offices until being converted to rental apartments in 1980. The Fairfax is a mid-rise building that spans a height of sixteen floors and encompasses 315 spacious apartments, all of which are easily accessible by any of the building's three high-speed elevators. The newly renovated lobby features rich wood panels, elegant neutral stone and a dramatic double-height ceiling.

Apartments at the Fairfax marry old-world charm with modern conveniences. The striking nine-foot ceilings feature architectural beams and, in conjunction with the generously oversized windows, give each apartment a uniquely open and airy feeling. Luminous oak hardwood flooring is an elegant accent to the residence and allows for any interior decorating scheme, whether it be traditional or contemporary. Self-controlled heating and cooling provides tenants with a comfortable environment year-round, while spacious closets house the wardrobes of even the most avid shoppers. Kitchens are fully equipped and offer dishwashers as an added convenience. Marble bathrooms are luxurious, with relaxing soaking tubs and stainless steel fixtures.

The Fairfax offers many conveniences to its residents while maintaining an old world charm. The 24-hour concierge, doorman and lobby attendant see to residents’ needs. There's also a valet service and an on-site full-service parking garage, which is accessible from the lobby. Video security is provided and offers residents peace of mind. There's a laundry room, plenty of storage for bikes, and general private storage. Residents also enjoy full access to the state-of-the-art fitness center and the lushly landscaped roof deck.

The Fairfax enjoys a central Upper East Side location. The surrounding area offers many excellent shops, restaurants, nightlife and cultural institutions. Public transportation is located nearby, and the neighborhood provides many beautiful tree-lined side streets for enjoying a lovely stroll.
