Built in 1917 by Emery Roth, this ten-story prewar cooperative on the Upper East Side is a classic white-glove residential building. Masonry construction with traditional ornamentation frames a collection of two- and three-bedroom apartment types alongside smaller pied-à-terre studios and penthouses. Typical residences feature high ceilings, prewar millwork, hardwood herringbone floors, formal dining rooms, generous closets and original architectural details refreshed through selective renovations. Common interior amenities include a staffed entrance foyer with full-time doormen, a live-in superintendent, elevator service, laundry and bicycle rooms, and oversized private storage cages that convey with certain units. Many homes offer windowed kitchens, walk-in closets and pantry space; some units have in-unit washer/dryer hookups or through-wall air-conditioning. Exterior attributes range from modest private terraces and small balconies to landscaped rooftop terraces accessible from penthouse units; a building courtyard provides limited outdoor respite at ground level. The co-op enforces board requirements typical for historic Manhattan buildings, including 50% minimum down, a flip tax paid by buyers, and restrictions on subletting and corporate purchases; pieds-à-terre and pets are permitted at board discretion. Located just off Park Avenue, two blocks from Central Park and close to Museum Mile, public transit, and neighborhood retail, the building supports a refined, amenity-focused urban lifestyle with strong on-site services and generous storage uncommon for the neighborhood.
