Carter's Review

The Pascal is an attractive, 8-story, mid-block, residential condominium building at 333 east 109^th Street in East Harlem.

It has 35 apartments.

It was developed in 2010 by the Marx Development Group of Fresh Meadows of which David Marx is a principal.

Karl Fischer is the architect.

Bottom Line

A pleasant mid-block rental building between Central Park and the great 1199 Plaza apartment complex on First Avenue.

Description

The symmetrical, gray metal panel façade has glass-railed balconies at its sides ending in angled windows that are repeated on the top two, balcony-less floors.  A simple but very attractive composition that is highlighted by the light-colored discrete window air-conditioners.
