This handsome, dark brown-brick, apartment tower was erected in 1974 and converted to a cooperative in 1979.

The 25-story tower has only 40 apartments, most with balconies with attractive metal railings.

This doorman building is setback in its own landscaping plaza, a rarity on Madison Avenue.

Many apartments on upper floors have spectacular views to west, south and east. The building is located on a very attractive, quiet street and its across the street from a newer, handsome apartment tower.

It is convenient to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art. There are many fine boutiques, art galleries and restaurants in the vicinity and P.S. 6, one of the city's finest public schools, is one block north. There is good cross-town bus service on 79th Street, although the nearest subway station is several blocks away.
