It is located right off Broadway with countless eateries in the neighborhood—such as Shake Shack, Sweetgreens, Serafina, Mama’s Too, and Absolute Bagels—as well as a short distance to Whole Foods, H-Mart, and Trader Joe’s. Conveniently located two blocks from the 1 train, 4 blocks from the B/C subway lines, and easy access to the East Side from the M4 bus, which stops two blocks away and brings you to Fifth Avenue in minutes. This pet-friendly, prewar building—which retains its original marble mosaic in the inviting lobby— was designed by Schneider & Herter and built during the residential housing boom in the area following Columbia University’s move uptown in 1897. The building includes 37 units over six stories, with a new laundry room and video security system being installed. Bike and storage units are available in the basement.
