Description

Lincoln Spencer Arts is a 12-story residential cooperative building at 140 West 69th Street with 237 apartments.

It is on the southeast corner of Broadway where it has an chamfered corner.

The ornate, pre-war, Beaux-Arts-style building has a two-story stone base, a pronounced and very decorative bandcourse above the third floor, a lesser one above the 10th floor, and a nice projecting cornice and many bay windows and some wrought-iron balconies.

It was built in 1903 and converted to a cooperative in 1986. It was originally erected as the Spencer Arms Hotel, which was primarily residential with only three large apartments on teach floor

It is a doorman with a live-in superintendent. It has sidewalk landscaping.

It is convenient to the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts and the 72nd Street subway station. There is good shopping and many restaurants in the neighborhood.

Broker & Buyer Comments

"Nice building with updated hallways. Has a doorman and laundry."
"Great location."
"Apartments come in a variety of sizes and configurations, and the hallways have been renovated."
