When the project was completed in 1988 by William Zeckendorf Jr. and his partners, this area was still something of a no-man's land. |

274 Residential units over commercial space at the ground level. |
The building affords fantastic views of Central Park, which are not likely to be obstructed much by the proposed, controversial redevelopment of the  New York Coliseum Tower one block to the north. |
