Carter's Review

This very handsome, 11-story building at 901 Lexington Avenue on the northeast corner at 67th Street was erected in 1907 and has only 17 co-operative units. 

The building is adjacent on its north side to one of two Hunter College towers and across the avenue from the other.  It is also diagonally across the avenue from the Seventh Regiment Armory building, the site of many major antiques shows. 

It designed by George Mort Pollard, who also designed the Hotel des Artistes at 1 West 67th Street. 

There is excellent public transportation and the Garnet Liquor Store is one block north on the avenue.

Bottom Line

One of the best pre-war buildings on Lexington Avenue.

Description

The red-brick building has a three-and-a-half story rusticated limestone base and its top two stories are also faced with rusticated limestone.  It has window surrounds on two of its fourth and fifth story avenue façades and some balconies on its sixth floor avenue façade. 

The building has an attractive cornice and an entrance on the avenue.

Amenities

The building has full-time doorman and elevator attendants, bicycle storage, and a laundry room.

Apartments

Apartment 9N is a four-bedroom unit with a 10-foot-wide entry foyer next to a 16-foot-wide library with a fireplace and a 24-foot-long living room with a fireplace that is adjacent to a 19-foot-long dining room that is down a hall from the 16-foot-long eat-in and windowed kitchen.  The master bedroom also has a fireplace.
