Carter Horsley's Building Review Carter Horsley

59 CITYREALTY RATING

Carter's Review

This handsome, Art Deco-style, 19-story building was erected in 1930. It is a cooperative with 64 apartments.

The beige-brick. mid-block building has a circular window above its canopied entrance, nice masonry detailing, sidewalk landscaping, some terraces, consistent fenestration, protruding air-conditioners, a two-story limestone entrance surround, and a doorman. It has an exposed rooftop watertank, no garage and no health club.

The building is on a pleasant street that that has good cross-town bus service. There is a nice playground just inside Central Park on the south side of 96th Street. There is good local shopping and a subway station at 96th Street and Lexington Avenue. The Carnegie Hill neighborhood just to the south has many important cultural institutions, private schools and religious institutions. Mount Sinai Hospital is a few blocks to the north.
