Carter Horsley
Review of 142 East 49th Street by Carter Horsley

This attractive, beige-brick, 9-story building has about 45 cooperative apartments and was erected in 1924.

It has a canopied, one-step-up entrance with a handsome entrance surround with light sconce and a five-step-up vestibule

The building has two bandcourses, a cornice and a façade garland and swag above the fifth floor.

It has an attractive lobby with black-and-white checkered floor and a doorman. It has protruding window air-conditioneres, no sidewalk landscaping, no fitness center, no roof deck and no balconies.

The building is convenient to good public transportation and is just to the east of the famous former Shelton Hotel on Lexington Avenue.
