About 685 West End Avenue
This attractive, beige-brick apartment building, which has many gargoyles of lions on its facades, was erected in 1923 and converted to a cooperative in 1983.
The 16-story building, which has a handsome rooftop watertank enclosure, has 93 apartments.
The building has a two-story limestone base, a doorman, consistent fenestration and it permits protruding air-conditioners. It has no concierge, no landscaping, no garage and no sundeck.
It is in a very attractive stretch of West End Avenue and is only a block to the east from Riverside Park and a block to the west from convenient neighborhood shopping along Broadway. Cross-town bus service and a subway station are at 96th Street and Broadway.
