About 51 Fifth Avenue
This attractive and sedate pre-war building has a prime Lower Fifth Avenue location directly across from the lovely First Presbyterian Church and its extensive gardens.
Built in 1928, it was converted to a cooperative in 1988.
The 15-story building has 89 apartments. Its handsome dark brown brick facade is accented by a limestone first story and decorative neo-Classical elements on the second and top floors.
This area is one of the most desirable in the city as it offers excellent public transportation, good schools, fine churches, many restaurants and stores and is also convenient to the trendy Flatiron District and all the charms of Greenwich Village.
This stretch of Lower Fifth Avenue is considered one of the most attractive residential areas in the city.
