The Mayfair, 207 East 74th Street: Review and Ratings

between Third Avenue & Second Avenue View Full Building Profile

Carter Horsley
Review of 207 East 74th Street by Carter Horsley

This attractive, 12-story, mid-block building was erected in 1963 and converted to a cooperative in 1983. It has 134 units.

The building has a white-brick façade with gray-brick banding, a gray granite marquee, a canopy, sidewalk landscaping with spiked planters, and a one-step-up entrance with a black polished granite surround.

It has a good, central Upper East Side location, a doorman, a garage, protruding air-conditioners, but no health club, no balconies, no terraces and no roof deck.

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.
