Carter's Review
This is a very handsome, Post-Modern, apartment building that was built with Art Deco-like flourishes as a condominium in 1998.
The 21-story, red-brick, mid-block building has only 37 apartments.
The building is distinguished by vey nice decorative air-conditioner grills on the third floor and a two-story limestone entrance surround. Decorative limestone pilasters rise up to the fifth floor and again near the top of the building providing a strong sense of verticality.
The building has a large marquee and its inner lobby door is automatic. Its many bay windows give the façade a lively appearance, marred only by an exposed rooftop watertank.
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 cafés is just to the south on Columbus Avenue.
