With a rare, cast-iron front, this 14-unit boutique coop was once home to the Golden Key Hotel and Lenruth Hall in the 1940s. Converted into a coop in 1989, it has since been beautifully renovated, including a new roof and fa ade. A major update to the hallways and common areas is currently underway to be completed in late spring 2024.
