About 110 East 87th Street
One of the most attractive Art Deco sidestreet buildings on the Upper East side, this 12-story building was erected in 1939 and converted to a condominium in 1984. The 68-unit building has an attractive red-brick facade with some decorative terra cotta trim and is nicely proportioned.
The doorman building is directly across from a large setback mixed-use tower that has apartments and a school, whose entrance is on 68th Street. The tower's entrance is extensively landscaped and this is one of the more attractive streets in the area between Park and Lexington Avenues.
Although 86th Street and Lexington Avenue, around the corner, is one of the busiest intersections on the Upper East Side because it is an express subway stop and major cross-town street, this building's location is quiet. It is also extremely convenient to several major retail stores such as Barnes & Nobles, HMV and Staples, a wonderful gourmet food store and several movie theaters.
It is in the Carnegie Hill neighborhood that is highly desired by many families for its fine schools and churches and excellent public transportation.
