227 East 57th Street: Review and Ratings
between Third Avenue & Second Avenue View Full Building Profile
This handsome, pre-war, red-brick apartment building was built in 1930. It is a cooperative and has 118 units.
The 20-story building is across the street from PS59, a low-rise structure that affords this building more open views than many other buildings on this famous cross-street. It has nice masonry, some terraces, a canopied entrance, a doorman, sidewalk landscaping and some handsome window surrounds. The building has a nice, step-down lobby and permits protruding air-conditioners. It has no garage and no health club.
While there is considerable traffic in this neighborhood, it is also very convenient to the midtown office district, shopping and transportation. There is very good cross-town bus service and an express subway station is nearby at 59th Street and Lexington Avenue.
