Normandie Court

Normandie Court is a multi-tower rental apartment complex in Carnegie Hill, Manhattan, at 225 East 95th Street, with Ogden CAP Properties as manager on record. It is a complex rather than a single building, occupying most of the block on the Upper East Side between Second and Third Avenues, with its towers set around a private landscaped plaza.

The complex is bounded by East 95th and East 96th Streets, a block below the start of East Harlem and a few minutes’ walk from the shops along Third Avenue. Central Park and the Conservatory Garden are four avenues west, and Carl Schurz Park and the East River Esplanade are the nearest open space to the east. The Q stops at 96th Street under Second Avenue, and the 6 stops at 96th Street and Lexington Avenue.

Completed in 1987, the complex holds 1,477 apartments in towers of up to 34 stories, making it the largest rental property in Carnegie Hill and one of the largest on the Upper East Side. It belongs to the wave of high-rise rentals that filled the Second and Third Avenue corridors in the 1980s.

For renters, its scale means a wide choice of layouts at a single address, and the opening of the Q train’s 96th Street station in 2017 put the Second Avenue Subway almost at its door.
