Building Description
The Belnord was once hailed as the largest luxury elevator apartment building in the world. It was designed to beckon well-to-do New Yorkers out of their single-residence brownstones and into the urban parts of the city. It was designed by Hiss and Weekes, built in 1920, and has 218 units spread across 12 floors.
One of its signature features is the presence of landscaped gardens in an inner courtyard that dates back to its opening. While most of the pre-War apartments were gutted when the property was renovated, they all retain hardwood floors, high ceilings, and fireplaces. Additional bonuses are gourmet kitchens and central air conditioning units. The property also features a doorman, an elevator, and a live-in super. The nearest subway station is less than 500 feet away at 86th Street. The nearest school, P.S. 166 is just three-tenths of a mile away. The Belnord was made a New York City Landmark in 1974 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
