Carter’s Review

"This handsome, red-brick apartment building was erected as a condominium in 1986 and has 94 units.

It is one of the few buildings on this block, one of the city's nicest, that does not have sidewalk landscaping and seating. The east end of this quiet street faces Manhattan Square, the large park in which the American Museum of Natural History stands."
