Carter’s Review

"This very handsome, brown-brick apartment house was erected in 1928 and converted to a cooperative in 1946. The 16-story building has only 16 apartments.

The neighborhood is one of the most elegant on the Upper East Side. There are numerous schools and religious and cultural institutions nearby. Public transportation is excellent and convenient as is neighborhood shopping."
