The Alexander is a new 24-story residential condominium building at
250 East 49th Street on the southwest corner of Second Avenue in the UN plaza area of midtown Manhattan. The condo will have 88 apartments, a 24-hour doorman and concierge, an Equinox fitness center, a
landscaped roof terrace, and private storage. The striking cylindrical design will have a square base and a curving glass curtain wall tower. Apartments will boast 11-and-a-half-foot ceilings, Subzero refrigerators, granite
counters, Miele washer dryers, privacy shades, and Viking ranges. The midtown east location is convenient to midtown offices and has seen a spurt of new residential condo growth recently. It has long been a favored area for out-of-towners who keep apartments in the city for part time use.
