1020 Grand Concourse #18D

A private balcony and extraordinary western views define this exceptionally spacious, high-floor two-bedroom at Executive Towers. Natural light fills the apartment throughout the day, with spectacular sunsets in the evening. The view includes Joyce Kilmer Park and the landmark Bronx County Courthouse below, Yankee Stadium, Harlem, Washington Heights, Inwood and Riverdale, and, in the distance, the midtown Manhattan skyline and the towers of Billionaires’ Row.

The unusually large living and dining room comfortably accommodates substantial seating and a real dining area, with the balcony directly off the living room. The exceptionally large primary bedroom is nicely separated from the second bedroom, which has two exposures and access from both the living room and kitchen, giving it unusual flexibility. Four exceptionally large closets provide an unusual amount of storage, and the apartment has central air conditioning and heat.

Completely renovated in 2023, the apartment has a large windowed kitchen with extensive white cabinetry, quartz countertops and stainless-steel appliances, including a dishwasher, gas range and microwave. The bathroom is crisp and bright, with elegant tile, a broad vanity, generous mirrored storage and a glass-enclosed tub and shower.

Designed by Philip Birnbaum and completed in 1963, Executive Towers is a full-service cooperative with 24-hour doorman and security, an attached parking garage, 24-hour laundry, BuildingLink, a live-in superintendent and on-site management. Recent building improvements include restoration of the distinctive tile entrance canopy, new automatic entry doors and new lighting. The cooperative is also adding planted green roofs to the building and the garage.

Executive Towers is directly across from the Bronx Museum of Art and within the Grand Concourse Historic District, with Joyce Kilmer Park and Franz Sigel Park close by and Yankee Stadium just to the south. The neighborhood is particularly convenient for shopping and dining: Bronx Terminal Market includes Target, Food Bazaar, Lidl, BJ’s, Home Depot and numerous other stores, while nearby restaurants include Hungry Bird for Indian cuisine, Porto Salvo for Italian and Minato by Porto Salvo for Japanese. Food Bazaar on East 161st Street provides another full-service supermarket close to home. The B, D and 4 trains and numerous bus lines provide convenient transportation throughout the city.
