435 East 86th Street: Review and Ratings
between First Avenue & York Avenue View Full Building Profile
This attractive, 9-story, post-war, mid-block, apartment building is a cooperative and has 60 apartments, some with tall ceilings and many with shared balconies with partitions.
The red-brick building has a small entrance marquee and a canopy, a doorman, and retail space on the street. It has consistent fenestration and nice zig-zag masonry detailing around the entrance and permits protruding air-conditioners. It has no garage, no health club, no sidewalk landscaping and no roof deck.
The building is one long but very pleasant block away from Carl Schurz Park on East End Avenue and there are some fine private schools in the area. There is excellent bus transportation although the nearest subway is an express station on 86th Street at Lexington Avenue. This is an architectural eclectic and less raucous section of 86th Street than the stretch between Second and Lexington Avenues which has many stories and movie theaters.
There are numerous restaurants on the avenues in the vicinity, a supermarket is nearby and there is also considerable traffic.
6sqft delivers the latest on real estate, architecture, and design, straight from New York City.
