Carter's Review
This very attractive, pre-war rental apartment building is just to the east of the famous Chelsea Hotel apartment building, a landmark famous for its artist residents and its delightful Edwardian-style architecture with handsome wrought-iron balconies.
This 18-story building, which is known as the Carteret, has handsome terracotta window surround detailing on the third and fourth floors and its top five floors that culminate in a pleasantly designed rooftop watertank enclosure.
The building, which is located at 209 West 28th Street, has a large marquee entrance, a roof deck, a doorman and multipaned windows. It was erected in 1926.
This is a prime Chelsea location that is very convenient to many restaurants and boutiques. Between Seventh and Eighth Avenues, it is a short walk in either direction to subway stations and there is good crosstown bus service. In the mid-1990's, the Chelsea district enjoyed a major renaissance as many art galleries moved in from SoHo and elsewhere and the Chelsea Pier along the Hudson River was opened as a major recreational facility.
The very trendy Flatiron district is two blocks away to the east and this area is convenient to midtown to the north and Greenwich Village to the south.
