130 West 86th Street: Review and Ratings
between Columbus Avenue & Amsterdam Avenue View Full Building Profile
This handsome, 15-story apartment building was built in 1920 and converted to a cooperative in 1984. It has 48 apartments.
The beige-brick, Italian-Renassiance-palazzo-style building has a one-story limestone base and is across from in the impressive quarters of The Jewish Center at 131 West 86th Street. This building has a canopied entrance and a marble-lined lobby with a doorman. The building has attractive entrance doors and permits protruding air-conditioners, but has no sidewalk landscaping, no health club and no garage.
Central Park is a bit more than one long block away as is a subway station at Central Park West. Another subway station is the same distance away at Broadway. There is excellent cross-town bus service.
The area has good schools and several religious institutions and one of the city's nicest strips of sidewalk caf¿s is just to the south on Columbus Avenue.
