-- Recently, industry leaders Bob Knakal and Ryan Serhant hosted an exclusive fireside chat at one of New York City’s most distinctive properties currently on the market: 35 East 62nd Street, an iconic Upper East Side townhouse, which the duo is offering on an exclusive basis at $49.9 million.
Hosted inside the historic property itself, the intimate event brought together top brokers, investors, and industry professionals for a rare opportunity to tour the building while gaining firsthand insights from two of the most influential voices in commercial and residential real estate. The conversation explored the story behind the building, current market conditions, and what lies ahead for New York City real estate.
Built in 1905, 35 East 62nd Street sits on a 40’ x 100’ lot and spans approximately 25,000 square feet across five stories, including a full basement, mezzanine, and rooftop loggia. The property is zoned to allow both residential and commercial use as of right, offering exceptional flexibility for a range of potential users.
Currently configured for office use, the building features an expansive double-height entrance lobby, a mezzanine creative studio, and a 40’ x 20’ boardroom with 16-foot ceilings. High-ceilinged upper floors provide abundant light & air and are designed to adapt to a variety of needs, including high-tech offices, hedge funds, family offices, foundations, or boutique headquarters.
The property also presents a rare opportunity for residential conversion, with the potential to become a grand single-family mansion, a European-style family compound, or a luxury live/work residence. Additional highlights include 40 feet of street frontage, an elevator, a glass-enclosed rear yard, and an outdoor rooftop garden.
Situated between Park and Madison Avenues, the property benefits from strong neighborhood demand, proximity to Central Park, and immediate access to world-class dining, retail, and transportation.

Our event gave attendees a great market overview and an intimate introduction to one of the great historic buildings in Manhattan that we currently have on the market for sale", stated Bob Knakal, chairman & CEO of BKREA.
