Co-op located in Midtown West, between Fifth Avenue & Avenue of the Americas
Comment About the Building
The building was built in 1936 by the late Governor and Vice
President, Nelson Rockefeller designed by Wallace K. Harrison. It was
an innovative design with the apartments all having large windows and
circular or square dining areas with windows. There were an additional
group of staff quarters on the second floor of each side which was for
people who needed to bring a housekeeper with them. The building
has mostly one bedroom apartments, some with terraces on the higher
floors and two bedroom apartments which have bedrooms in the back
overlooking the beautiful interior garden. In 1954 the building was
turned into cooperative ownership and has attracted really interesting
people including many from the theatre and art world.
Today buyers for this building are attracted to the architecture and
many are interested in retaining the original baths, kitchens and the
hardware. The floors are herringbone parquet throughout with the
exception of the baths and kitchens. The building is now landmarked
and holds a spot in the group of New York's finest buildings.
