POPS - Outdoor Seating

The Lausanne at 340 East 72nd Street is a Privately Owned Public Space on the Upper East Side, named for the Swiss city. The outdoor seating area serves a residential building between First and Second Avenues.

Named residential buildings are a distinctive feature of New York City's housing landscape. Buildings like the Lausanne, the Corinthian, and the Beresford carry names that evoke European elegance, distinguishing them from address-only buildings.

The Upper East Side in the low 70s between First and Second Avenues is a residential corridor that benefits from the 72nd Street crosstown corridor's commercial energy and transit connections, including the Second Avenue subway station.

The POPS serves the building's residents and neighbors with a small outdoor amenity on a residential side street in the eastern Upper East Side.

This seating area provides outdoor space at a building whose Swiss name reflects the aspirational European sensibility that has long characterized Upper East Side residential marketing.
