52 Convent Avenue: Review and Ratings

Review of 52 Convent Avenue by Carter Horsley

This attractive, 7-story, grey-brick building at 52 Convent Avenue between 129th and 130th streets in West Harlem was erected in 2017 and has 17 condominium apartments. 

It was developed by Kane Ventures of which Yoni Bak is an officer.  Henry Radusky of Bricolage Designs was the architect.  The same team also developed 17 Convent Avenue on the southwest corner at 128th Street at the same time. 

The building is close to subways and Saint Nicholas Park.

Bottom Line

An attractive, low-rise, grey-brick building in West Harlem with some angled balconies and good public transportation.

Description

The building is six stories tall but a large part of it only rises 5 stories, each roofline with a similar cornice.

Amenities

The building has a fitness room, a children's playroom, storage, bicycle storage, a virtual doorman and a landscaped rear yard.
