This impressive, limestone-clad, 14-story apartment building has many duplex units and is at the west end of one of the city s most impressive sidestreet blocks, which contains several major mansions. This area is one of the most attractive on the Upper East Side. The building, which was designed by Delano & Aldrich, was erected as a cooperative in 1907 and has only 30 apartments. The beige-brick facade has a large cartouche near the top facing the avenue. The base of the building has a rounded ledge and there are stoops leading to professional offices in the building along the sidestreet. The building, which has a three-story, rusticated limestone base, is not far from the Metropolitan Museum of Art and many boutiques and art galleries along Madison. Cross-town buses run on 79th Street and one of the city's best schools, PS 6, is nearby in this very desirable neighborhood. A local subway station is at Lexington Avenue and 77th Street.
