About Gracie Gardens, 520 East 90th Street
This handsome, 6-story, apartment building was erected in 1940 and is a cooperative with 272 units.
The red-brick, mid-block building has a canopied, one-step-up entrance flanked by lanterns. It has a doorman, protruding air-conditioners, sidewalk landscaping, consistent fenestration, and a garden. It has no terraces, no balconies, no health club, no garage and no roof deck.
It is very close to Carl Schurz Park and Gracie Mansion.
There is an express subway station several blocks away at Lexington Avenue and 86th Street but there is excellent cross-town bus service on 86th Street.
There are several fine private schools and some religious institutions in this area.
