AKA Sutton Place, located on East 56th Street between First and Second Avenues, sits in one of New York City's most prestigious and exclusive neighborhoods. The building, formerly the Sutton Hotel, has been fully renewed with a gracious ambiance that is elegant but not too formal, impressive yet not overwhelming in scale. The neighborhood- named after Effington B. Sutton, a shipping magnate who developed the land along the East River in the 1870s-is bordered by East 53rd and East 59th Streets. Interesting architecture abounds, led by one of the most respected residential apartment buildings in town, One Sutton Place South, a neo-Georgian style mansion designed by famed early 20th-century architect Rosario Candela. Here, serenity and calm reign, providing a respite from the commotion of Midtown.
