Carter Horsley's Building Review Carter Horsley

48 CITYREALTY RATING

Carter's Review

This handsome, 12-story, Italian Renaissance-palazzo-style apartment building was erected in 1915 and converted to a cooperative in 1980. It has 58 apartments.

The building, which has a very handsome lobby, is just to the east of the very attractive, Romanesque Revival-style West Park Presbyterian Church designed in 1890 by Henry F. Kilburn on this quite pleasant block.

There is excellent cross-town bus service. Central Park is a bit more than one long block away as is a subway station at Central Park West. Another subway station is the same distance away at Broadway.

The area has good schools and several religious institutions and one of the city's nicest strips of sidewalk caf¿s is just to the south on Columbus Avenue.
