Carter's Review
This very elegant, mid-block, apartment house was built as a cooperative in 1929. The 14-story building has only 13 apartments.
There are several handsome pre-war buildings on this attractive block and all of them have large apartments and very few of them.
The bottom two stories of the building's limestone façade are rusticated. The doorman building has a canopied entrance with handsome wrought-iron doors. It has sidewalk landscaping, inconsistent fenestration, no garage and permits protruding air-conditioners. It is just to the east of the luxury apartment tower at 900 Park Avenue that has a large plaza and driveway.
The building's location on a very attractive block is convenient to the Metropolitan Museum to the north and the Whitney Museum of American Art to the south. There are many boutiques and restaurants nearby. There is good cross-town bus service, but also considerable traffic at this location, and the nearest subway station is not too far away at 77th Street and Lexington Avenue near Lenox Hill Hospital.
