Built in 1937, this six-story prewar cooperative occupies a corner lot in Jackson Heights’ historic district. The masonry facade and classic lobby terrazzo reflect original period detailing preserved through periodic restorations. Units are predominantly studios, one- and two-bedroom layouts with high (about 9–9.5') ceilings, hardwood or parquet floors, bay-shaped windows in some units, and traditional moldings. Kitchens and bathrooms vary from original finishes to recent gut-renovations; many suites showcase eat-in kitchens, granite or quartz counters, and modern stainless-steel appliances. Common areas include a renovated lobby and elevator, a small landscaped garden/picnic patio, a laundry room, storage and bicycle rooms, a children’s playroom, and a recently added gym. On-site staff typically includes a live-in superintendent and porter; the co-op permits pets and subletting with board approval. The building has undertaken upgrades such as restored terrazzo hallways, double-paned windows in select units, and electrical system improvements. Located a few blocks from the Roosevelt–Jackson Heights transit hub and adjacent to Travers Park, the building provides immediate access to multiple subway lines, neighborhood shopping, restaurants, and a year-round farmers’ market.
