Located in the heart of the Upper East Side’s Yorkville neighborhood, 1727 Second Ave sits within one of Manhattan’s most consistently active mixed-use corridors. The property benefits from exceptional visibility along a heavily traveled avenue lined with residential towers, neighborhood retailers, restaurants, and boutique service providers. This portion of Second Avenue draws steady foot traffic from local residents, nearby schools, and commuters accessing the 86th Street Q train station just a short walk away.
The building presents the classic form of Upper East Side mixed-use construction, with a ground-floor commercial frontage suited for retail, medical, boutique fitness, or service-oriented tenancy, complemented by residential units above. Large windows at street level typically provide strong branding opportunities and continuous exposure to pedestrian flows. The surrounding blocks offer a well-established blend of national and local operators, indicating reliable consumer demand and high neighborhood purchasing power.
Yorkville’s demographic strength enhances the property’s value proposition, with strong median household income, dense population, and long-term residential stability. Proximity to major routes such as the FDR Drive and 96th Street Crosstown corridor provides convenient connectivity for customers and employees. The area’s continued evolution following the Second Avenue Subway expansion has further elevated traffic patterns and neighborhood desirability.
