Carter’s Review

"This 17-story apartment house occupies a prime Upper East Side location one block south of the Whitney Museum of American Art on Madison Avenue. The orange-brick building was erected in 1947. Most of its apartments have balconies, which only protrude slightly from the façade and are partially recessed with angled interior walls. Most of them are angled balconies and shared by two apartments with a small partition between them. In addition to these on both the avenue and the sidestreet, the sidestreet also has smaller inset balconies in another apartment line and all these balconies give the building's façades a greater sense of depth and visual interest. The building has a nice, compact appearance and is topped by an attractively enclosed watertank. The building, which has a one-story marble base, has a doorman and concierge and attractive, canopied entrance, which is directly across from Coco Pazzo, a fashionable restaurant. The neighborhood here is as good as it gets in New York with many famous boutiques and art galleries nearby. Central Park is less than a block away and bus service here is excellent. Traffic can be heavy on Madison Avenue, but the attractive sidestreet is quiet."
