Carter's Review
This attractive, 22-story, mid-block, red-brick apartment building was erected in 1962. It is a cooperative and has 74 units.
This is one of the nicest blocks along 57th Street, although like many in the city it has its inconsistencies such as the "L"-shaped, white-brick apartment building across the street at 411 East 57th Street that wraps around and looms over a few low-rise buildings on the northeast corner at First Avenue that house a magazine store and a liquor store. Its configuration, of course, reflects the popularity of this neighborhood, which is only a block away from a nice park overlooking the East River on Sutton Place.
This building has a concierge, some terraces, large windows, and sidewalk landscaping in a narrow plaza. It has no garage and no health club and is not close to a subway.
While there is considerable traffic nearby along First Avenue going to the Queensborough Bridge at 59th Street, this is a quiet block in the highly desirable Sutton Place neighborhood. There is very good cross-town bus service and an excellent supermarket shares some of the vault space beneath the nearby Queensborough Bridge at 59th Street with a large restaurant.
