Carter Horsley's Review of 1040 Park Avenue

Carter Horsley's Building Review
"This cooperative apartment house at 1040 Park Avenue on the northwest corner at 86th Street is known for its penthouse that was owned for many years by Condé Nast, the publisher, and its amusing decorative frieze of tortoises and hares.

The handsome but demure building, designed by Delano & Aldrich in a Georgian-style with some hints of Art Deco, was developed by Joseph L. B. Mayer." Read Carter's Full Review
