Carter's Review
This attractive 14-story building was erected in 1924 and converted to a cooperative in 1980.
It has particularly nice quoins that are subtlety indented.
The mid-block apartment house has only 28 apartments.
The building's brown-brick façade is textured with rough-hewn bricks above its three-story limestone base. The building has a canopied entrance and attractive wrought-iron window grills on the first floor. It has a small lobby with a concierge and permits protruding air-conditioners and has no garage.
It is half a block from an express subway station at Lexington Avenue and there is excellent crosstown bus service. Although 86th Street has busy retail activity to the east, it has quite sedate to the west in this desirable area that has many private schools, religious institutions and major museums. The building is across from an attractive apartment building at 103 East 86th Street and adjacent to a sunken retail plaza and ramped garage entrance of an apartment tower whose entrance is on 85th Street.
