Default lunar centric orbit?

we know the parameters of geocentric orbit
but what are the parameters of lunar centric orbit?

where could you site an orbiting moon base so that it was stationary above
the surface?

if you could then I suggest that it may be far easier to make a moonstalk
elevator because of lesser stresses involved and lack of atmosphere to drag
on the stalk
