490 West End Avenue: Review and Ratings

at The Northeast corner of West 83rd Street View Full Building Profile

Carter Horsley
Review of 490 West End Avenue by Carter Horsley

This quite distinguished and impressive, 12-story building was erected in 1912 and converted to a cooperative in 1986. The building has 65 apartments.

The nicely detailed, deeply grouted beige-brick building has an Italian Renaissance palazzo-style façade with two bandcourses and a handsome cornice. It has consistent fenestration and permits protruding air-conditioners.

The building was designed by Neville & Bagge.

The building has a very large, step-up, marble lobby and a concierge.

This neighborhood offers very convenient public transportation and excellent shopping as well as many interesting restaurants. Riverside Park is one block away.
