Carter's Review
This handsome, Italian Renaissance-palazzo-style apartment building was erected in 1926 and converted to a cooperative in 1985.
The 15-story, beige-brick building has 142 apartments.
It has a large entrance marquee and a two-story limestone base with arched windows on the second floor. The third floor has an unsual window treatment that has rope columns around every other pair of windows. There are a few decorative balconies and a nice, modest cornice.
The building permits protruding air-conditioners and has no health club and no garage. 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.
Its central Upper West Side location is very close to famous stores along Broadway and a delightful stretch of sidewalk caf¿s a few blocks north on Amsterdam Avenue. There is good public transportation and this area is convenient to the various amenities of the Lincoln Center District about a dozen blocks to the south.
