“Charing Cross House” is an Upper East Side co-op in Lenox Hill on the corner of 2nd Ave. Dual buildings house 178 units: a six-story northern site bridged by a wide corridor to the southern 17-floor tower. The 24-hour doorman entrance on most popular East 72nd Street introduces the refurbished lobby, halls and elevators. The property provides private and common storage, a bicycle room and central laundry. Pets are quite welcome. The building was named in honor of Helene Hanff's 84 Charing Cross Road – a delightful, best-selling chronicle of a 20-year, transatlantic “love affair by mail” penned while in residence in 1970.
