Located on the iconic Upper East Side corner of Madison Avenue and East 72nd Street, one block from Central Park, 28 East 72nd Street ("The Waldo Mansion") is an elegant five-story Gilded Age limestone townhouse with limitless potential. By the end of 2026 the rent in one of the apartments and one of the commercial units will be increased by $1,500.

Constructed originally in 1897 for Gertrude R. Waldo by Kimball & Thompson architects as a single family mansion in the neo-French Renaissance (Châteauesque) Style, the property is currently configured as a fully occupied mixed-use asset with 5,358 interior sqft with 9,242 unused FAR. This presents the unique opportunity for a discerning purchaser to restore the home to it's former glory as a distinguished single-family residence on an exemplary block, or to hold as a long-term income producing asset in one of the most prestigious and valuable neighborhoods in the world.

Architectural description:
On the entrance level, there is a round-arched entrance with an adjacent round-arched window giving the impression of an arcade. The facade of the mansion is dominated by a projecting curved bay window at the second and third stories surmounted by a balustrade. Both stories contain triple square headed windows. Beneath the fourth floor windows are friezes with richly enframed cartouches. A tall limestone clad chimney continues a composition influenced by the châteaux of the Loire Valley. Although the Waldo Mansion is modeled on French 16th century châteaux, its reduced scale and urban setting result in a characteristically late 19th century American architectural creation.

Location:
28 East 72nd Street is located directly adjacent to the iconic Rhinelander Mansion (currently occupied by Ralph Lauren), which was also constructed by Kimball & Thompson architects, on one of the most recognizable landmarked street corners in all of the Upper East Side Historic District. Renowned for its beauty, architectural significance and cultural heritage, this neighborhood is defined by its sophistication, luxury boutiques, fine dining establishments, world-class cultural institutions and Central Park. The Frick Collection and Metropolitan Museum of Art are nearby, as well as prominent art galleries such as Skarstedt and the Anita Shapolsky Gallery, and renowned auction house Sotheby's, making it a destination for culture and the arts.
