62 CITYREALTY RATING

#20 in NoLiTa/Little Italy

Carter's Review

This very handsome pre-war building is located between Centre and Lafayette Streets and is very convenient to the SoHo, NoHo and Cooper Square neighborhoods.

The building has units that range in size from half floors with about 1,800 square feet to full floors with more than 3,600 square feet. It has a concierge, Seidle video intercom, keypad elevator system and a landscaped roofdeck.

Many apartments have fireplaces and most ceilings are 11 1/2 feet high. They have individually controlled heating and air-conditioning and high-speed Internet access.

Northeast vistas overlook the former Police Headquarters Buildings that is one of the city's most impressive Beaux Arts landmarks.
