Description
Situated in the heart of the Upper East Side’s Gold Coast, just off Madison Avenue, 26 East 78th Street presents a rare leasing opportunity for gallery, nonprofit, foundation, and cultural users.
The fully restored townhouse offers classic Upper East Side character with modern architectural execution. A dramatic entry lobby with 20-foot double-height ceilings establishes a museum-quality arrival, complemented by a sculptural internal staircase and a full-building-width glass elevator. Interiors are defined by scale, light, and flexibility, supporting a range of institutional and exhibition-driven uses.
Located moments from Madison Avenue and Museum Mile, this turnkey property offers an exceptional opportunity to establish a presence within one of Manhattan’s most established cultural corridors.
