Carter’s Review

"Basking in the glory of its freestanding site, the 38-story Alfred residential condominium tower at 161 West 61st Street was one of the most visible in the Lincoln Center district when it was erected in 1987.

This neighborhood, however, began to witness a tremendous burst of new construction around 2007 with several glassy new apartment towers sprouted nearby to the south and west and Fordham University began to redevelop its campus south of the Lincoln Ceetner for the Performing Arts to the east. "

LOCATION for those who love the convenience to Lincoln Center. Central Park and Columbus Circle are near enough.
Situated on a cul de sac, rare in NYC. Just behind and beside Fordham. Beautiful lobby and grounds.
Apartments can be dated if not renovated. High floor south views are GREAT. North views in time could be blocked if Fordham builds a dorm on the lot. Until then, views are of Lincoln Center complex. Health club on site.

Nice lobby great lap pool gym and great location

The Alfred is a top condominium with 24 hour Doorman & concierge. It is impeccably maintained with the best staff, valet. The gym, 75 ft. lap pool, sauna, steam room & Jacuzzi are all inclusive in the rent. The building has a racquetball court, garden, playroom, lounge area and garage. This top location is in the heart of Lincoln center, steps to Time Warner building, Central Park as well as the best shops & restaurants on the Upper Westside.

It is a condo with 1st right of refusal which they never exercise so it is a very easy Board.
