Carter's Review

This stunning mid-block, 18-story apartment tower at 210 West 77^th Street between Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue on the Upper West Side is extremely handsome.

The 25-unit condominium building combines thin gray bricks with mahogany window frames, cast-iron Juliet balconies and bronze spandrels to create a very elegant filigree look.

Thomas Juul-Hansen is the architect and The Naftali Group is the developer.

Bottom Line

A very refined and elegant mid-block apartment building with rather exquisite design touches such as concentric rectangular motifs at the entrance and in the lobby and delicate Juliet balconies and large mahogany window frames.  Some units in this centrally location Upper West Side building have fireplaces.
