Considered one of the finest residential examples of 1930's International style residential architecture in New York, The Rockefeller Apartments at 24 West 55th Street and 17 West 54th Street are two sister buildings joined by a newly restored gracious and lush green garden paradise with a reflecting pool, gravel courtyard and midcentury-style design elements. Residents are able to enter the cooperative from either 54th or 55th Street, both of which are serviced by a full time doorman. Critically praised by architectural critics, the buildings were developed by Nelson Rockefeller in 1936 with architects Wallace K. Harrison J. and Andre Fouilhoux and are known for their distinctive features such as curved casement windows and a warm limestone color. Shareholders enjoy 24 hour doormen, porter staff, live-in superintendent, laundry room, courtyard garden and storage (as available). 75% financing is permitted.
