It is also in close proximity to elite private schools, cultural institutions, restaurants and various modes of transportation. The building is only steps to Central Park, the reservoir, and one of Central Park's largest playgrounds. The co-op board allows 50% financing. A flip tax of 2% is to be paid by the purchaser.
