Carter Horsley's Review of The Sherwood

Carter Horsley's Building Review
"If 55th Street between 8th and 9th avenues is the residential centerpiece of Clinton, the 11-story, mid-block building at 340 West 55th Street must be its Gilbraltar, or impressive landmark.

A modest building, it does not have much to flaunt, yet it is surprisingly robust in its bearing, a discrete stanchion." Read Carter's Full Review
