As the first LEED-certified luxury “green” residential building on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, The Lucida brings a new standard of living to this venerable neighborhood.

Environmentally-conscious living is taken to glamorous new heights in a sleek and sophisticated high rise. Eco-friendly materials seamlessly merge with elegant design, custom furnishings, and contemporary amenities to create the ultimate in haute, yet environmentally-conscious, living.

The lobby pays homage to classic New York City modernist architecture, featuring a range of rich woods and luxurious fabrics complimented by patina bronze inlays and distressed leather accents. These innovative and renewable materials offset the crisp details and accentuate a peacefully coexistence with nature.

Residential units and penthouses feature an updated interpretation of pre-war detailing. Clean lines are softened by an abundance of dark warm woods, sumptuous marbles, and shimmering mosaic tile. The contemporary undertones of the custom designed cabinetry, hardware, mirrors, and light fixtures add a unique twist to generously-sized kitchens and bathrooms.

The amenities floor offers residents a multitude of services, incorporated in a serene and elegant environment with a warm neutral palette. The La Palestra Health and Wellness Center features a three-lane swimming pool surrounded by limestone and wood detailing, two fireplaces, an indoor/outdoor hot tub, sauna, and yoga room. A custom-designed lounge features a full-service kitchen, reading room, and game tables.
