Hardenbrook House, 404 East 66th Street: Review and Ratings
between First Avenue & York Avenue View Full Building Profile
This attractive, red-brick, 13-story apartment building was erected in 1960. It is a condominium and has 128 apartments.
The building has considerable "light and air" as it is across the street from the attractive Public School 183 and down the block from the very attractive St. John Nepomucene Roman Catholic Church, which shares the First Avenue blockfront between 66th and 67th Street with the Bethany Reformed Church. Nearby is St. Catherine's Park occupies the western avenue blockfront between 67th and 68th Streets.
The building has extensive sidewalk landscaping and the canopied, two-step-up entrance is flanked by handsome white grills. The building has a doorman, garage, basement storage, some balconies, terraces and bay windows and discrete air-conditioners. It is just to the east of the very attractive 23-story rental apartment building known as The Pearl, which opened in 2000.
This neighborhood is convenient to Rockefeller University and New York Hospital to the east and the Queensborough Bridge to the south. New luxury apartment construction at the beginning of the millennium is beginning to change the ambiance of the avenue.
There is convenient cross-town bus service, but the nearest subway is at Lexington Avenue.
