Lee, the Grandfather of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, who also developed grand residences on Park and Fifth Avenues. The building is surrounded by pre-war cooperatives and landmarked limestone mansions. The building is distinguished by its arched top floor windows outlined in blue terracotta and just completed a major façade renovation. Mr. Lee also developed 740 Park Avenue and 998 Fifth Avenue, two of the many grand residences built at the beginning of the twentieth century. This building is one of the finest, pre-war cooperatives on the Drive and has low maintenance. The edifice is situated in one of the most architecturally interesting areas of the Upper Westside among landmark limestone mansions.
