Apologies, 52 West 74th is a no pet building but is pied a terre friendly. 52 West 74th Street is one of an urban neo-Georgian group of row houses built as single family mansions and is one of the few group of row houses that have not been altered in their front facades. The quality of construction was considered high-level with concrete floors and fireproof construction. Each of the original row houses had between 17-19 rooms. In 1981, 52 West 74th Street was converted to cooperative ownership and now has 10 private homes. This location is considered to be prime UWS just a half block to Central Park, a few blocks to the Museum of Natural History, the New York Historical Society, Lincoln Center and the Beacon Theatre. Shopping is just outside, a half block to Columbus Avenue and you are surrounded by great restaurants and boutiques.
