This Jr. One is in The Amherst, a very financially strong and energy efficient coop with every amenity: 24-hour concierge, gym, community/ children’s room, courtyard and roof deck gardens with dining tables and chairs, new pristine laundry room, an attached garage, and resident manager. The shareholders are delighted with bulk rate ConEdison bills, a gas boiler, a new high efficiency co-generator, and the use of LED fixtures throughout, which greatly reduce the environmental footprint while substantially reducing both the owners and building heating and electricity costs. The hallways, elevators, lobby, gym, community/children’s room, roof deck, and laundry room have been recently renovated with no assessments to shareholders. Washer-dryers are not allowed in individual units. The Amherst has low maintenance bills. Cable companies include Verizon FIOS, Spectrum, and RCN. This beautiful apartment is situated in a friendly neighborhood that has many of the most important amenities that are sought-after by busy Manhattanites. This pied-a-terre and pet friendly coop is very close to the Q, the 4,5,6 trains, the M31, M15, M72nd, and M79 buses. 401 E. 74 Owners Corp is an easy walk to Central Park, as well as to the East River, Sotheby’s Auction House, grocery stores, restaurants, Carl Shurz Park, John Jay Park and swimming pool, and all that make a neighborhood great .
