Constructed in 1887-89, this 20’ wide, 5-story brick and brownstone townhouse is arranged as seven residential apartments. The lower portion includes a renovated 4-bedroom/3-bath garden triplex with central air-conditioning, high-end kitchen appliances, a wine cooler, central audio, washer/dryer, and access to a south-facing rear garden. The six upper residences are configured as 1-bedroom/1-bath apartments, including one rent-stabilized third-floor rear unit.

The five fair-market upper-floor apartments are finished and, other than the third-floor rear residence, are scheduled for vacant delivery. The property occupies the south side of West 88th Street between Central Park West and Columbus Avenue, with access to the 86th Street A, B, and C subway station and the 86th Street and Broadway 1 & 2 station.
