The Marlowe

The Marlowe is a rental apartment building at 145 East 81st Street on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, managed by Glenwood Management. It stands on East 81st Street between Lexington and Third Avenues, on a mostly residential side street a few blocks east of Park Avenue.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Central Park are four blocks west at Fifth Avenue, and the shops of Lexington and Third Avenues are at either end of the block. Carl Schurz Park and the East River are a walk east. The 6 stops at 77th Street and at 86th Street on Lexington Avenue, the 4 and 5 at 86th Street, and the Q at 86th Street and Second Avenue.

Completed in 1998, the 17-story building holds 84 apartments and is the smallest building in this index. Glenwood Management, which runs a large group of Upper East Side doorman buildings, manages it, and its East 81st Street location puts the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Central Park and the shops of Lexington and Third Avenues within a short walk.
