Review of 229 East 79th Street by Carter Horsley

This attractive, 15-story, red-brick apartment house was erected in 1925 and converted to a cooperative in 1989.

It has 83 apartments.

The mid-block building has a one-story limestone base and a second-story decorative limestone window surround above its canopied entrance. It has sidewalk landscaping and beveled-glass entrance doors and an elevator person. . It has no garage and no health club.

This area of the Upper East Side is quite lively with many restaurants and excellent neighborhood shopping nearby. There are also numerous schools and religious and cultural institutions in the vicinity. There is good cross-town bus service on 79th Street and a subway station is nearby at Lexington Avenue and 77th Street.
