151 East 78th Street translates the proportions of traditional Upper East Side apartment houses into a contemporary condominium. Peter Pennoyer Architects designed its stone-and-brick exterior, with a rusticated base, an arched entrance and carefully grouped windows. Setbacks create a more varied silhouette at the upper floors.

The architect documents fourteen residences, including floor-through apartments, penthouses and a maisonette. Inside, formal entry sequences and distinct living and dining spaces offer an alternative to an entirely open plan. The original design pairs wood flooring with stone finishes and detailed kitchens. When comparing resales, look at the actual room arrangement, alterations and the relationship between the principal rooms and any private outdoor space.
Is 151 East 78th Street a prewar building?
It is a contemporary condominium designed in a classical tradition. Its appearance draws on earlier New York apartment houses; it is not an original Candela building.
Are all residences the same layout?
No. The architect describes floor-through homes, penthouse duplexes, a penthouse simplex and a maisonette duplex. Compare the particular floor plan and its outdoor-space rights.
