Carter’s Review

"This distinguished, brown-brick, 15-story cooperative apartment house at 31 East 79th Street on the northeast corner at Madison Avenue was built in two parts. The first section, at the Madison Avenue corner, was erected in 1925 and an extension to the west three years later. The two parts are almost seamless, although the cornice line along 79th Street shows the difference. 

The building, which was designed by William H. Rowan, was converted to a cooperative in 1946. "
