No-Fee Apartment of the Week: $5,495 3-bedroom on the UWS

By Lucy Cohen Blatter | September 7, 2012 - 1:03PM

This $5,495 three-bedroom is located in the large (if slightly institutional) Stonehenge building at 120 West 97th Street. The property comprises three interconnected buildings linked together through a walkway and a landscaped courtyard and playground.

Pros: Stonehenge Village is smack in between Riverside Park and Central Park, the 2/3 express train is only a block away, and there's a Whole Foods nearby. The apartment appears to be in good shape. We're thinking this could be perfect as a share. The building has a doorman, live-in super and laundry room.

Cons: The price is high for an apartment that seems to lack any character, and the locals are in an uproar over some homeless shelters that opened nearby this summer.
