Carter’s Review

"Formerly the New York Lying-In Hospital, this delightful and very distinguished building, which was designed by Robert Henderson Robertson, was erected in 1902 and converted to condominiums in 1986, but operated as a rental building until 2006.

Robertson had designed the 391-foot-high Park Row Building in 1886 that was for nine years the world's tallest building. He also designed the American Tract Society Building at 150 Nassau Street in 1894 and the New York Savings Bank Building in 1897 at Eighth Avenue and 14th Street."

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "gracefully restored" pre-war gem seamlessly blends "historic charm" with modern amenities, featuring a "meticulously renovated" marble lobby and "climate-controlled" hallways. Residents enjoy the "beautifully landscaped" rooftop sundeck, secure bike storage, and convenient lobby ATM, while apartment-level security systems offer "peace of mind."
