Carter Horsley's Building Review Carter Horsley

52 CITYREALTY RATING

Carter's Review

This very handsome, 6-story, mid-block building was erected in 1940 and converted to a cooperative in 1982. It has 84 units.

The Art Deco-style, red-brick building has a canopied entrance with a one-step-up entrance and handsome sidewalk landscaping. The building has excellent masonry detailing, a doorman, protruding air-conditioners, corner windows and attractive fire-escapes set back in light courts. It has no health club and no garage.

It has a good, central Upper East Side location.

There are numerous elegant restaurants in the area and excellent local shopping nearby on Third Avenue. This building is down the street from J. G. Melon's, a restaurant noted for its excellent burgers, on the northeast corner at Third Avenue. There is a subway station at Lexington Avenue and 77th Street where Lenox Hill Hospital is also located and there is good cross-town bus service on 72nd Street.
