Carter's Review
This handsome 7-story apartment building at 7 Gramercy Park West was erected in 1913 and renovated in 1986 by Raphael Vinoly when it was converted to 25 condominium apartments.
It is also known at 103 East 20th Street and 6 Gramercy Park. It overlooks the historic gated park and is just to the west of such important local landmarks as the Players Club and the National Arts Club.
It has a doorman, a canopied entrance and sidewalk landscaping as well as a two-story rusticated base and corner quoins and a very nice cornice.
It is at the southwest corner of the park.
Apartments have 12-foot-high beamed ceilings.
According to an August 29, 1999 article in The New York Times by Joyce Cohen the building was formerly an "austere convent."
The building, which has a wood-paneled lobby and some fireplaces, is convenient to public transportation and the many restaurants of the Flatiron and Union Square districts.
Julia Roberts, the actress, owned one of the penthouses.
