The Upper East Side never attracted as much Art Deco flash as its west-side counterpart, but tucked among the Beaux-Arts town houses and sedate neo-Georgian apartment buildings the neighborhood has some remarkable examples, including an apartment house by Raymond Hood; one of Manhattan’s very few Art Deco town houses; the elegant Carlyle Hotel; and apartment houses by Sloan & Robertson, Horace Ginsbern, Henry S. Churchill, and George and Edward Blum – the latter being among the very first Art Deco apartment buildings anywhere in the city.
