Lexington House is a six-story, 1931 pre-war cooperative in Forest Hills that occupies a prominent, park-adjacent site. The brick building, arranged in two wings with only about 50 units, was conceived in a Georgian-inspired suburban-apartment idiom and retains many original architectural details. Interiors commonly feature high ceilings, crown moldings, hardwood floors, and period elements such as wood-burning fireplaces and generous mouldings; unit types range from large studios and convertible layouts to multi-bedroom classic plans with formal dining rooms and windowed eat-in kitchens. Shared spaces include a recently refreshed marble-floored lobby with a veranda, part-time door attendants, elevator access, a live-in superintendent/porter, central laundry, bike room, storage bins, and two rooftop solariums/terraces plus courtyard space. Outdoor assets include a landscaped front lawn and direct adjacency to Yellowstone Park, offering green views and recreational access. Practical conveniences include nearby express subway and LIRR service, on-site maintenance staff, and flexible pet policies (board approval). The building’s community-oriented scale, limited number of residences per floor, and a mix of preserved pre-war character with updated utilities create a residential setting that emphasizes classic finishes, room proportions, and neighborhood connectivity.
