Carter Horsley's Review of 171 West 79th Street

Carter Horsley's Building Review
"This handsome, Italian Renaissance-palazzo-style apartment building was erected in 1923 and converted to a cooperative in 1984.

This building has a canopied, step-up entrance that leads to a rather plain lobby with a concierge. The building permits protruding air-conditioners and has inconsistent fenestration." Read Carter's Full Review
