Carter Horsley's Building Review Carter Horsley
Dec 23, 2011
50 CITYREALTY RATING

Carter's Review

This very handsome, red-brick, 19-story apartment house was built in 1930 and converted to a cooperative in 1947. It has only 42 units.

The building has limestone columns flanking its canopied entrance and sidewalk landscaping, a step-down lobby with attractive entrance doors and a very fine roofline. It has a doorman, consistent fenestration and permits protruding air-conditioners.

With its central Upper East Side location, the building is very convenient to many restaurants and good neighborhood shopping and there is good cross-town bus service, although the nearest subway station is several blocks away. The building is not too far from Sotheby's, the auction house, at York Avenue.
