Carter Horsley's Building Review

Carter Horsley

54 CITYREALTY RATING

Carter's Review

This attractive, 10-story, beige-brick, prewar apartment building is a cooperative with 39 units.

The building has a nice roofline, decorative balconies, sidewalk landscaping, nice entrance doors, globe lanterns flanking the entrance and protruding air-conditioners. It has no health club, no doorman, no garage and no roof deck.

This building has a central Upper West Side location close to Zabar's, Barnes & Noble, a cineplex and numerous restaurants and stores. It is not far from a subway station on Broadway at 86th Street, which has excellent cross-town bus service.

The neighborhood is one of the city's finest architecturally with many superb pre-World War II apartment buildings and some well-designed late 20th Century apartment houses as well.
