Pickup

Pickup is at the front door, 28 East 63rd Street, a quiet residential block between Madison Avenue and Park Avenue. The doorman and bell staff meet cars at the curb on 63rd Street. The chauffeur arrives before pickup time and checks in with the doorman. On this narrow side street, cars pull up shortly before you come down, so we text you the car’s position and the chauffeur’s name in advance.
Central Park, Museum Mile and Madison Avenue’s retail corridor are all within walking distance of The Lowell’s tree-lined Upper East Side block.
