Carter Horsley's Review of 420 East 72nd Street

Carter Horsley's Building Review
"This 19-story apartment building is just half a block away from Sotheby's, the auction house, on York Avenue. Since this building was erected in 1962, the area has undergone considerable redevelopment with many new luxury high-rise towers that have led to a substantial gentrification of the neighborhood. The attractive building has 188 apartments, most with large picture windows, and was converted to a cooperative in 1984. The white-brick building has a handsome lobby and canopied entrance with doorman and concierge desk. The area has many excellent restaurants and good neighborhood shopping and is also close to the hospitals along York Avenue." Read Carter's Full Review
