Originally reimagined by Extell Development Company, The Carlton House seamlessly blends classic Upper East Side architecture with modern residential living. Perfectly positioned on East 61st Street at Madison Avenue, the building is surrounded by celebrated boutiques, restaurants, luxury hotels, and galleries, while remaining just moments from Central Park and the Plaza District.
