Ha! This is my building. I just closed on a unit here in July. We fell in love with the building as soon as we saw it. The best thing is drinking coffee on the stoop and watching people walk by and stare in awe. The building is in decent shape, but needs some work, and a lot of the units have some amazing original details, like 14 foot pier mirrors and huge original moldings. The entrance doors are beautiful.

The building went co-op in '83.

Thanks for the history, is any more available? I was told Laurence Fishborn attended school here, but who knows.

This is a common practice in the world of high end guitars. There are tons of boutique builders who spend months beating and bruising brand new guitars and then selling them as "relics" for thousands more than new.
