Review of 175 East 79th Street by Carter Horsley

This pleasant, 16-story apartment house was erected in 1929 and converted to a cooperative in 1960. It has 64 apartments.

The red-brick, mid-block building has handsome, canopied entrance with a limestone surround and nice wrought-iron entrance doors. The building has sidewalk landscaping, inconsistent fenestration and permits protruding air-conditioners. It has an exposed rooftop watertank, no garage and no health club and its façade shows evidence of repairs.

There are numerous schools and religious and cultural institutions nearby as well as many restaurants. Public transportation is excellent as is neighborhood shopping.
