The very handsome, 11-story condominium apartment building at 21 East 96th Street on the northwest corner of Madison Avenue has been topped out.
The red-brick building has attractive white trim around vertical pairs of windows. The nice neo-Georgian-style design is by Barry Rice and H. Thomas O'Hara and is highlighted by the impressive rooftop watertank enclosure.
The building's massing is modulated by stringcourses at the fourth and 9th floors, setbacks at the 10th floor and an indented center facade on the avenue.
Stewart Boesky and Jamison Weiner are the developers.
Each apartment in this building is directly accessed from the elevator and has a grand entrance gallery and ceilings that about 10 feet high. The building has a 24-hour doorman and a vaulted lobby with white marble flooring in a herringbone pattern.
