689 Fort Washington
689 Fort Washington Avenue is a five-story condominium building located in the serene Hudson Heights neighborhood of upper Manhattan.

Delany in a late Renaissance style, likely inspired by the Franciscan Friars and Carmelite Nuns orders of the Catholic Church. In the mid-1980s, the building underwent a comprehensive renovation, transforming it into 84 unique condominium units. The building's historical significance and architectural charm make it a distinctive residence in the area.
