THE BUILDING One of only two grand "studio" buildings that face Central Park, 2 West 67th Street was the seventh artists' project built on West 67th Street. Constructed between 1916 and 1919, the architects, Rich & Mathesius, designed it with a pronounced "arts and crafts" influence. By the time the building was completed, few artists actually occupied the apartments because the building had become a sought after home for prominent business owners and stockbrokers of its day. Unlike many Upper West Side cooperatives of its era it did not fail in the Depression making it one of Manhattan's senior co-op buildings. Location is everything and 2 West 67th Street, a full-service cooperative, is immediately adjacent to Lincoln Center and on one of the most picturesque landmark blocks on the Upper West Side, convenient to public transportation, many fine restaurants and, of course, Central Park. Pets and Pied-a-terre's are permitted. There is a 2% Flip Tax paid by Buyer.
