A six-story prewar co-op completed in 1935, this Riverdale residence occupies a low-rise masonry structure with classic 1930s detailing. Layouts are predominantly one-bedroom units, alongside larger multi-bedroom combinations created over time; interiors commonly retain original moldings, high or cathedral ceilings, hardwood floors and other period features while many units have been updated with granite counters, eat-in kitchens, and renovated baths. The building offers an elevator, a gracious carved-entry lobby with decorative trim and a communal garden and roof deck for residents. Practical conveniences include limited indoor garage parking (separate fee/assessment), storage and a communal roof deck; building rules restrict dogs and prohibit smoking, though cats are typically allowed. Situated in central Riverdale, the property sits within easy walking distance of the No. 1 subway, express/local buses, shops, restaurants and nearby parks, providing a blend of suburban calm and commuter access to Manhattan. Monthly maintenance assessments are sometimes applied for capital projects and services.
