ARCHITECTURE: 92 MORNINGSIDE REVEALED


The abandoned old tenement at 92 Morningside Avenue by West 122nd Street has been under construction for the past two years and now the scaffolding is finally coming down.  We walked by the restored apartments just across the street from Morningside Park today and the construction crew was removing the last of the netting out front.  Glassy penthouse additions can now be seen at the top of the old prewar structure and a new cornice has been added on to replace the one removed after fire damaged the building a few years back.  Word of mouth has it that condos are arriving to this corner of South Harlem in the future and the details restoration should definitely move things along when the units are up for sale.
