Carter’s Review
"This very distinguished and very handsome, red-brick, 14-story cooperative apartment house was built in 1926. Like several other pre-war buildings on this very attractive block, it has large apartments and very few of them.
The 21-unit building is just to the west of the attractive New York Society Library. "
