Carter's Review

This attractive, beige-brick, 16-story building at 235 West 102nd Street on the northeast corner at Broadway was erected in 1928 and converted to 345 co-operative apartments in 1976. 

It was designed by George F. Pelham, whose other pre-war apartment buildings include 33, 98, 290 and 300 Riverside Drive, 585, 675 and 710 West End Avenue, 10 West 86th Street, 81 Irving Place and 944, 1120 and 1160 Park Avenue. 

This building, which has ground floor retail space on Broadway, is called the Broadmoor and is also known as 2681-7 Broadway.

Bottom Line

A handsome, beige-brick, pre-war building in a steadily improved area south of Columbia University and not too far from a great West Side Market at 98th Street and Broadway.

Description

There are thin and attractive rope columns between the second and third floors on both sides of the end window bays. 

There are some decorative window surrounds on the top two floors and a couple of decorative balconies. 

There are bandcourses above the first and fourth floors.

The building has window air-conditioners.
