The building has a white-brick façade with gray-brick banding, a gray granite marquee, a canopy, sidewalk landscaping with spiked planters, and a one-step-up entrance with a black polished granite surround.

It has a good, central Upper East Side location, a doorman, a garage, protruding air-conditioners, but no health club, no balconies, no terraces and no roof deck.

There are numerous elegant restaurants in the area and excellent local shopping nearby on Third Avenue. This building is down the street from J. G. Melon’s, a restaurant noted for its excellent burgers, on the northeast corner at Third Avenue. There is a subway station at Lexington Avenue and 77th Street where Lenox Hill Hospital is also located and there is good cross-town bus service on 72nd Street.
