Carter's Review
You can't always get what you want, but if you want a tennis court this is the place because it is the home of the Town Tennis Club and the court is just behind this building on 55th Street.
The tennis court provides a lot of extra "light-and-air" to the back of this building, but its 56th Street doesn't skimp on "light-and-air" either because it, and the adjacent similar building at 440 West 56th Street, which is known as Sutton Manor East, both sport very unusual façades that are stepped and angled and sport many corner windows. This building also has many apartments with very large bay windows that the other building does not have. In addition, this building is just to the east of Plaza 400, a very tall apartment tower with spacious plazas and sidewalk landscaping.
This attractive, 12-story, red-brick apartment building was erected in 1967. It is a cooperative and has 159 apartments. It has nice sidewalk landscaping, a pleasant lobby, and a doorman, some terraces and consistent fenestration. It permits protruding air-conditioners and has no health club, no garage and no roof deck.
This Sutton Place area has many restaurants and some dramatic views either of the waterfront or the midtown skyline. There is very good cross-town bus service on 57th Street, but subways are not close.
