Carter’s Review

"This is one of the eight 28-story apartment buildings that were built as part of the Lincoln Towers residential component of the vast Lincoln Square Urban Renewal Project that also created the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts and a Manhattan campus for Fordham University.

The Lincoln Towers enclave contains a total of 3,897 apartments of which 562 are in this building that was completed in 1963 and converted to a cooperative in 1987."

Broker & Buyer Comments

Please note that these comments have not been reviewed or confirmed by CityRealty and may be old, incomplete or otherwise inaccurate. Be sure to consult with a qualified real estate specialist for up-to-date information.

The building has multiple entrances with a vary large lobby; there`s a full staff (i.e. doorman, resident super, porters, etc.). All of the buildings in the complex are huge with hundreds of apartments, multiple laundry facilities and a couple of elevator banks. There is bike storage; parking spacces are outside and are available for purchase at thousands of dollars.

Fairly tough coop board; they require a 30% down payment; guaranteed consistent level of income for a number of years & substantial liquid assets after the down payment. While the maintenance is slightly on the high side, it includes utilities; pets are permitted.

The building is at 66th St. & West End Avenue which is a few blocks from Broadway where there`s an entrance to the 67th Street subway line. The crosstown bus stops on 66th Street; uptown & downtown bus stops on West End Avenue. There`s a Balducci`s a block away on 66th Street & the building is right at Lincoln Center & a few blocks from Central Park to the east and the new Riverside Drive promenade to the west.
