Carter Horsley's Review of The Clifton House

Carter Horsley's Building Review
"This handsome, Italian Renaissance-palazzo-style apartment building was erected in 1926 and converted to a cooperative in 1985.

It has a large entrance marquee and a two-story limestone base with arched windows on the second floor. The third floor has an unsual window treatment that has rope columns around every other pair of windows. There are a few decorative balconies and a nice, modest cornice." Read Carter's Full Review
