Carter's Review

This 23-story building occupies the west blockfront on Broadway between 86th and 87th Streets. It was erected in 1988 and contains 354 residential condominium apartments.

It was designed by Alexander Cooper & Partners and Schuman, Lichtenstein, Claman & Efron. It has a rounded corner at 86th Street and the top six floors are set-back in two-story increments and have mostly glass façades in contrast to the warm red brick façade of the building's large base. The mass of the base is broken up somewhat by a narrow indentation close to 87th Street that marks its entrance which has an angled upwards marquee, and by the fact that it has beige-brick banding and the 3rd and 4th floors as well as the top two floors of the base.

In their great book, "New York 2000, Architecture and Urbanism Between the Bicentennial and the Millennium," Robert A. M. Stern, David Fishman and Jacob Tilove noted that Mr. Cooper described the Belnord right across Broadway as "formidable, marvelous, chunky" and the authors added that "The Boulevard was formidable and chunky, if not especially marvelous, filling its 30,447-square-foot site with 24,740 square feet of retail space and medical offices on four floors (including two basements), parking for 124 cards and 354 apartments."

The building has a concierge, doorman, garage, health club and pool, a sundeck and racquetball and squash facilities.

There is a supermarket in the basement and a subway station at the corner and there is excellent cross-town bus service on 86th Street.
