This 15-story prewar co-operative was built in 1928 and contains a mix of one- and three-bedroom apartments. The building presents classic architectural details such as high beamed ceilings, crown moldings, arched doorways and generous entrance foyers.

Residents enjoy full-service white-glove staffing with a 24-hour doorman and a live-in superintendent. Shared amenities include a planted private garden, central laundry, bicycle storage and individual storage units. The co-op board considers pied-à-terres, guarantors and co-purchases, and permits pets under the building weight limit with board approval. Located on the Upper East Side between Lexington and Third Avenues, the building offers easy access to the M79 crosstown bus, the 4/5/6 and Q lines, Central Park and the city’s major museums, as well as neighborhood schools and shops.
