Discussion about 166 East 63rd Street in Lenox Hill

We are current tenants and there is a major "facade restoration project" underway in the building. You cannot use the HVAC or open windows from 9-5 M-F. The noise of grinding, drilling, hammering happens all day. Also, the construction guys go up and down the building all day so your shades need to be closed all day as well. It is awful... We also have chemical fumes in our apartment from it. We are in a 3-bed. Just be warned. The work started in Spring of 2013 and will probably go until Spring of 2015.

The building failed its Local Law 11 inspection in 2012. Once it does, esp if it is a large building, it's messy for a few years.

Hi, has the facade project been completed? I'm considering renting in the building, any problems I should be aware of? Is there central AC or wall units? Thanks!

Can anyone provide an update on the facade work? I'm thinking of renting, too, and can't get any clear answers. Thanks!

The facade work was completed almost a year ago and all of the Second Ave. Subway construction should be done by January 2016. A totally new park and subway entrances will be done by that time.
