Carter’s Review

"This well-located, 15-story, red-brick building was erected in 1917 and converted to a cooperative in 1965. It has 58 apartments.

The building is convenient to some cultural institutions and many world-famous boutiques along Madison Avenue as well as many restaurants and neighborhood shopping along Lexington and Third Avenues. Although the nearest subway station is several blocks away, there is good bus service on this major cross-town street."
