150 East 78th Street: Upper East Side Luxury Condos, Prices & Floor Plans
At Lexington Avenue and East 78th Street, 150 East 78th Street brings together architecture by Robert A.M. Stern Architects (RAMSA), interiors by Robert Couturier and private elevator entry. For buyers comparing spacious Upper East Side condos, this completed building offers an original collection of three- to five-bedroom homes in half-floor, full-floor and duplex layouts.
As of October 12, 2026, Residence 2B is publicly offered as a three-bedroom resale asking $5,995,000, with approximately 2,177 square feet. Listed monthly common charges of $3,955 and property taxes of $4,583 total $8,538, before financing, insurance and other expenses. A private elevator foyer and separate living, dining and bedroom areas give the home distinct spaces for entertaining and everyday use.
Sales originally launched in 2021; buyers today should evaluate the building through its current resale listings. The guide below covers location, design and amenities, with condo prices, monthly costs and floor plans together in Section 08. Original four-bedroom and terrace penthouse plans illustrate the residential design and do not establish current availability.

02 / The Upper East Side Setting
The corner of East 78th Street and Lexington Avenue connects a residential side-street entrance with an established north–south avenue. Madison Avenue shopping and galleries are part of the surrounding neighborhood, while Central Park to the west offers space for walking, running and time outdoors.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the museum resources along Fifth Avenue add to the area’s cultural options. The nearby 77 Street station on Lexington Avenue serves the 6 train. During a visit, it is worth considering the side-street arrival, avenue traffic and the differences in light and sound between specific exposures and floors.
03 / The Design and Development Team
Midwood Investment & Development and EJS Group developed the project with RAMSA as design architect and Ismael Leyva Architects as executive architect. RAMSA’s use of masonry, carefully proportioned windows and setbacks gives the building a recognizable presence within the Upper East Side streetscape.
Robert Couturier designed the interiors, carrying classical detailing into public rooms and residences through moldings, stone, wood and metal. The kitchens were developed in collaboration with Christopher Peacock, combining custom cabinetry with substantial preparation and dining space.
04 / Brick, Limestone and Setback Penthouses
Brick and Indiana limestone shape the facade, with arched windows, cornice details and selected Juliet balconies adding depth to the corner. Upper floors step back into green metal-and-glass penthouse structures, creating a distinct roofline and opportunities for private outdoor space in certain homes.
These architectural features also affect how a home lives. Window shape, furniture placement, the depth of a terrace and its connection to living rooms deserve consideration alongside square footage. Fireplaces, terraces and particular window configurations belong to individual residences and should be checked against the home under consideration.

05 / Arrival and Lobby
The residential entrance is on East 78th Street, framed by a green canopy, lanterns and bronze double doors. Inside, pale stone, fluted wall treatments, decorative moldings and a gold-toned coved ceiling establish a composed arrival sequence.
Wood, brass and leather details distinguish the concierge area, with an adjoining sitting space extending the lobby. A 24-hour concierge and private elevator vestibules connect the building’s public and residential spaces. Buyers may wish to discuss visitor access, deliveries and daily service arrangements during their visit.

06 / Residences, Kitchens and Baths
Private Entries and Distinct Living Areas
Private elevator vestibules lead to stone entry foyers, with plans that distinguish reception rooms from bedroom areas. Oak flooring combines chevron and straight-plank treatments, while wall and ceiling moldings bring detail to larger rooms. Dining rooms, breakfast areas, libraries and bedrooms are arranged differently across the collection, allowing buyers to compare plans around how they actually use a home.

Kitchens Designed with Christopher Peacock
Custom cabinetry and Statuarietto marble counters and backsplashes establish the kitchen palette, with walnut islands featured in the project design. The official specifications identify Sub-Zero refrigeration and wine storage, Miele appliances and Lacanche gas ranges with vented hoods. Range specifications differ between standard residences and penthouses.
For buyers who cook regularly, natural light, working clearance around an island, the relationship to a dining table and pantry storage are useful points to examine in person. The individual layout matters as much as the appliance collection.

Stone Baths and In-Home Laundry
Primary baths combine Bianco Crisium and Bardiglio Nuvoletto stone with a freestanding soaking tub, steam shower, Lefroy Brooks fixtures and a separate water closet in the project specifications. Secondary baths and powder rooms use different stone treatments. In-home washing and drying equipment adds practical support to the residential layouts.

07 / Resident Amenities and Services
Fitness, Squash and Golf Practice
The athletic amenities include a regulation squash court fitted with a retractable basketball hoop, a Technogym-equipped fitness center, a private training studio and a golf simulator. The basketball hoop shares the squash court; it is not a separate regulation basketball court.

The Parlor and Children’s Activity Room
The Parlor combines walnut walls, a coffered ceiling and arched windows with billiards, dining space and a catering kitchen. A separate children’s activity room provides a drawing wall, work surfaces and storage for books and games, creating a dedicated setting for creative play.

A Shared Rooftop Terrace
The shared rooftop combines limestone arches with seating, dining, a fire pit and grilling facilities. It offers an outdoor option for residents whose homes do not have private terraces. This shared amenity is distinct from penthouse outdoor space; current access and reservation arrangements should be confirmed with building management.

Everyday Building Services
The official materials list a 24-hour concierge, cold storage, bicycle storage, a pet washing area and commercial laundry equipment. Individual storage is offered by license; availability, charges and the scope of use require separate confirmation. Amenity access and operating arrangements are subject to current management policies.
08 / Featured Residences: Prices, Monthly Costs and Floor Plans
The following separates a current public resale listing from original project design references. Listing prices, common charges and taxes were reviewed on October 12, 2026. Original floor plans explain the layouts and do not imply that all illustrated residences are currently available. All areas are approximate.
Residence / Information type | Layout and area | Price / Status |
2B | Current resale listing | 3 bedrooms; 3 full baths + powder room; 2,177 sq. ft. | Asking $5,995,000 |
6–8A | Original plan reference | 4 bedrooms; 4 full baths + powder room; 2,881 sq. ft. | Current asking price and availability not verified |
PH15 | Original penthouse design | 4 bedrooms; 4 full baths + powder room; 3,727 interior sq. ft. + 288 terrace sq. ft. | Original design only; current configuration and availability not verified |
Residence 2B | Three-Bedroom Resale
A private elevator vestibule opens to a foyer and gallery, with the living and dining area along one side of the home. Arched windows define the reception space. The current listing presents the third bedroom as a library connected to the great room by pocket doors, giving buyers a useful comparison between a full three-bedroom arrangement and two bedrooms with a study. Actual use and any alterations should be checked against the plan and applicable approvals.
The primary suite includes two closets and its own bath; the other bedrooms also have en-suite baths. A guest powder room sits near the entry gallery, while a dedicated laundry area includes a sink and vented dryer. These details may appeal to households looking for an office or guest room alongside several private bathrooms.

2B monthly carrying-cost sample | Published amount |
Common charges | $3,955 per month |
Real estate taxes | $4,583 per month |
Total of these two items | $8,538 per month |
This total includes only the published common charges and real estate taxes. It excludes financing, insurance, utilities, special assessments and transaction costs. Charges and taxes can change; confirm current bills and management documents before purchasing. SERHANT is the brokerage marketing the current 2B listing.
6–8A | Four-Bedroom Half-Floor Plan Reference
The original 6–8A plan shows approximately 2,881 square feet with four bedrooms, four full baths and a powder room. A large great room and windowed eat-in kitchen occupy one side of the plan, while the bedrooms extend along the gallery and hallways, each with an associated bath. The kitchen’s connection to the principal living area is worth studying for both everyday dining and entertaining.
PH15 | Original Full-Floor Penthouse with Terrace
The original PH15 drawing depicts a single-level, full-floor four-bedroom home with approximately 3,727 interior square feet and a 288-square-foot private terrace. Separate living, dining, eat-in kitchen and library/bedroom spaces provide several ways to organize the home, with the terrace adjoining the great room.
This is the original PH15 design retained on the project website. Subsequent combinations, unit configuration and alterations have not been fully confirmed for this review. The drawing is a design reference and is not presented as a separately available current listing.

A Recorded Sale for Context
Residence | Area / Layout | Published sale record |
10B | 2,190 sq. ft.; 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths + powder room | $6,950,000; recorded sale dated August 6, 2026 |
The 10B transaction provides building-level market context rather than a direct valuation of 2B. Floor, light, condition, transaction terms and differences in layout all affect comparisons.
09 / Key Residential Highlights
150 East 78th Street brings together RAMSA’s masonry architecture, Robert Couturier’s interiors and an extensive resident amenity collection within a small residential building. Private elevator entry, clearly organized foyers and bedroom areas, and outdoor space in selected penthouses are useful points of comparison for buyers considering larger Upper East Side condos.
A three-bedroom resale such as 2B offers a starting point for understanding the building. From there, bedroom count, formal dining needs and terrace preferences can guide a comparison with other opportunities in the building and across the neighborhood. Official renderings illustrate design intent; the condition, equipment, costs and delivery contents of a specific home should be established through inspection and applicable documents.
