The Finch co-operative, formerly the home of Finch College, a women’s private school whose alumni include the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Whitneys, and Isabella Rossellini.

Upon the closing of its doors in 1975, the red brick and limestone buildings were converted into apartments.

Pieds-a-terre, co-purchasing, subletting, and pets are allowed with board approval. The prime Upper East Side address is on a lovely block less than 1 block from Central Park.

Also near Lenox Hill Hospital, the renowned Metropolitan Museum of Art, Met Breuer, Frick, and the Guggenheim, world-class hotels, art galleries, fine dining, and Madison Avenue shopping. Transportation options are good as well.
