Carter’s Review

"This attractive, 11-story, brown-brick apartment building was erected in 1965 and has 383 rental apartments.

There is excellent cross-town bus service on 57th Street and subways on Eighth Avenue at 57th Street. There is good shopping in this area, which is a few blocks south of the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts."

Broker & Resident Comments

This "theater district workhorse" offers "surprisingly spacious" apartments with "ample closet space" that are "priced fairly for what you get." The "prime location" near "every subway line imaginable" and "endless entertainment options" makes it a "convenient home base," while the "attentive maintenance staff" and "beloved night doorman Ernest" ensure smooth daily operations. Though some cite "management communication issues" and "variable unit quality," most agree it's a "solid value" for midtown Manhattan, particularly for those seeking "generous square footage." The "recently renovated units" feature "quality finishes," though common areas can be "hit or miss." "Package handling" and "responsive maintenance" earn consistent praise.
