Carter’s Review

"The Alexandria at 201 East 72nd Street on the northwest corner at Broadway was the most attractive new building on the Upper West Side in decades when it was built in 1991.

The 25-story, 202-unit condominium building abounds in nice architectural touches and its location in the lee of the taller Ansonia one block north makes it highly visible from the south.  Its distinctive watertank enclosure is a wonderful Post-Modern concoction of Egyptian motifs."

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "prime Upper West Side" full-service condo boasts an "unbeatable location" directly across from the 72nd Street express subway station, offering "exceptional convenience" for Manhattan living. The "well-appointed" building features a "comprehensive wellness center" complete with a "unique" terrace overlooking a church facade and a "distinctive" subterranean pool. "First-class service" comes standard with full-time doorman, concierge, and staff, while "practical amenities" include per-floor laundry facilities and on-site garage. "Gourmet grocers" Fairway and Citarella are "just blocks away," making this a "perfectly situated" residence for discerning New Yorkers.
