196 East 75th Street Review

This attractive, 20-story, mid-block building was erected in 1959 and converted to a cooperative in 1981. It has 134 units.

The gray-brick building has a good central Upper East Side location with a canopied entrance with a polished black granite entrance surround and sidewalk landscaping. The building has a doorman, a garage, some terraces and some protruding air-conditioners, but no balconies and no health club.

There are numerous good restaurants in the area and good local shopping nearby. There is good cross-town bus service on 72nd and 79th Streets, and there is a nearby subway station at Lexington Avenue and 77th Street where Lenox Hill Hospital is also located.
