Carter Horsley's Review of The Harmony

"This 27-story cooperative apartment tower is one of the city's most modernistic with its silvery metallic façade. Designed by Philip Birnbaum, the 278-unit building was developed by Giffuni Bros., and completed in 1978. It occupies the former site of the Colonial Theater, which was built in 1904 and later became the Harkness Theater. The Colonial Theater was "hallowed by Chaplin, Houdini, Walter Hampden and - among many others - Walter Winchell, whose nightly broadcast originated here in the forties," according to Peter Selwen in his very interesting book, "Upper West Side Story A History and Guide," (Abbeville Press, 1989).The handsome building has an L-shape and is wrapped around 1881 Broadway. It has a large through-block arcade, entered from Broadway, that originally had a lot of red seating. In 1997, a large part of the arcade was rented to a "rock-climbing" enterprise that brought a new, blatantly vigorous, albeit incongruous, life to the space.

Broker & Buyer Comments

"Bicycle Room; Health Club; Laundry Room Financing Allowed: 80% average board. Tax Deductibility: 65%. Great Location near Lincoln Center. Close to Time Warner Center. Near Hudson Hotel. Good Transportation and shopping...close to park"

"24-hour doorman building. Bike room, Health club, laundry. Right next door to the Reebok Gym and Climbing wall."

"Lived here 40 years. Best building with doorman and concierge. Board is flexible, neighborhood is active. Views of Lincoln Center. Gym, safe as only concierge comes to your door. Apartments are generously sized and most have been renovated. I highly recommend this building."
