Carter's Review

This handsome pre-war building at 245 West 107th Street on the northeast corner of Broadway was erected in 1929 and converted to a cooperative in 1980.

It has 117 apartments.

The 15-story building was designed by Sugarman & Berger and is also known as 2780 Broadway. It is across 107th Street from the Opus apartment tower. Both buildings overlook Straus Park at the intersection of Broadway and West End Avenues.

Bottom Line

A very attractive pre-war apartment building overlooking Straus Park at the intersection of Broadway and West End Avenue.


 

Description

The beige-brick building has a canopied entrance with nice entrance doors that lead to a large lobby with a checkerboard floor and beamed ceiling. 

The building has very attractive window surrounds with rope columns and decorative spandrels between the 2nd and 3rd floors that are repeated between the 13th and 14th floors.

There is a prominent scalloped bandcourse above the fourth floor and a smaller one beneath the 13th floor and a stringcourse below the 15th floor.  It also has a balustrade roofline.

The 15-story, beige-brick building houses Garden of Eden, one of the city's finest gourmet food stores. It is convenient to public transportation.

It has no balconies but a very attractive roof deck with handsome teak furniture, mature plantings and a herb garden.

The building has some protruding air-conditioners.
