Carter’s Review

"This stretch of Yorkville used to have many dance halls and German beer emporiums and this building and the adjacent apartment house at 233, erected one year later, marked the beginning of the radical transformation of this area from an lively entertainment district and ethnic enclave to a high-rise "luxury" residential neighborhood.

This 15-story, midblock building was erected in 1982 and converted to a condominium with 60 apartments in 1986. It was designed by Stephen B. Jacobs & Associates."
