Carter Horsley's Building Review Carter Horsley

Carter's Review

This 6-story building was erected in 1928 and converted to a cooperative in 1989.

The mid-block apartment house has 16 apartments.

The building has a red-brick façade with a two-story limestone base and a canopied entrance with sidewalk landscaping. The apartments have high ceilings and large windows and while the façade is relatively plain it has a nice decorative stone frieze above the top floor windows. The lobby is small but attractive and the building, which does not have a garage, or a doorman, or a concierge, permits protruding air-conditioners.

It is half a block from an express subway station at Lexington Avenue and there is excellent crosstown bus service. Although 86th Street has busy retail activity to the east, it has quite sedate to the west in this desirable area that has many private schools, religious institutions and major museums.

The building is just to the east of a ramped garage entrance and a sunken retail plaza of an apartment tower whose entrance is on 85th Street.
