In their great book, "New York 2000, Architecture and Urbanism Between the Bicentennial and the Millennium," Robert A. M. Stern, David Fishman and Jacob Tilove noted that the building replaced a gas station and "maintained the street wall on the avenue but set back from the property line on the north and south sides to respond to the quieter character of the side streets," adding that "To break down the scale of the building as a whole, the avenue-facing facade featured alternating recesses and was set back above the tenth floor. At the ground floor, which contained retail spaces along Seventh Avenue, the facades, reflecting the Art Deco character of many buildings in the immediate neighborhood, were clad in limestone with detailing in satin stainless steel at the residential entrance on Twentieth Street, while the upper floors were clad in gold-colored bricks with brown and white accents."
