The buildings architecture firm, Taylor & Levi, have many works listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. Residents in the early years included NYC society, financiers, and businessmen, but by the middle of the 20th century, luminaries of stage and screen arrived. Most noteworthy residents include Joan Fontaine and Viven Leigh, who rented Ms. Fontaines apartment while appearing on Broadway in 1966. The building offers mostly semi-private or floor through apartments. It is pet friendly and pied-a-terre ownership will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
