This attractive, 9-story, mid-block building at 151 West 74th Street between Amsterdam and Columbus avenues was erected in 1923 and has 49 co-operative apartments. 

It was designed in Neo-Renaissance style by F. P. Platt & Brother that, according to Streeteasy.com, was "best known for their designs of the Art Deco self-service Horn & Hardart automat restaurants."
