Carter's Review
This handsome, 17-story apartment building on the northwest corner at 37th Street at 50 Park Avenue is a red-brick building that was erected in 1940.
It was designed by George Pelham Jr., one of the city's leading architects of pre-war apartment buildings.
It has a one-story limestone base and a broad limestone bandcourse at the fourth story.
The building, which is also known as 31-37 East 37th Street, has a canopied entrance, a doorman and permits protruding air-conditioners.
It has a prime Murray Hill location and is adjacent to the very modern and attractive mid-block apartment building at 52 Park Avenue and the smaller but equally attractive
Scandinavian House that has a large and delightful ground-floor cafe.
This building has 125 cooperative apartments and a roof deck and sidewalk landscaping and a three-story limestone entrance surround with some rustication at street-level.
It was converted in 1972
