Madison Green – 5 East 22nd Street

Very few buildings can truly claim the title of “the best location in Manhattan” but Madison Green at the intersection of 23rd street, Broadway and 5th Ave could be a serious contender. Located just to the east of the Flatiron Building, and just south of Madison Square Park, owners and tenants who reside here have access to not only the shopping districts of southern 5th avenue, and many of the top Manhattan restaurants (Gramercy Tavern included), but also three different subway lines (6, N/R, & V/Path) to almost any destination in the city.

Designed by architect Philip Birnbaum, there are 44 unique residence layouts, many of which include private outdoor space, as well as a number of Duplex Penthouses. And since the building has no northern neighbors and only lower lying buildings to its south, many of the homes enjoy unadulterated views of Midtown or Downtown Manhattan.

For those in need of a little extra, the 30th floor of the building is home to The Madison Club Room, a private tenant only lounge open daily, and adjacent to the building entrance is a lush private sitting area designed by urban space architect David Kenneth Specter.
