Overview of 50 Sutton Place South

50 Sutton Place South is a 22 story, 197 apartment post-war cooperative completed in 1956. It occupies the west blockfront of Sutton Place South between 54th and 55th Streets, where its red brick façade, white trim and numerous balconies form a modern interpretation of Colonial style. The similarly composed 60 Sutton Place South stands directly across 54th Street.

Apartments are characterized by generous proportions, broad window walls and substantial closet space. Junior 4 plans with convertible dining alcoves recur alongside larger homes with formal dining areas and bedroom wings. Many residences have private terraces or balconies, and eastern and southern exposures bring East River, city and Queensboro Bridge views.

The full service building has an attended lobby, 24 hour doorman, concierge and live-in resident manager. A fitness center, central laundry room, resident storage, package facilities, landscaped garden approach and on-site garage round out the amenities. Hallways have recently been renovated, with lobby work also undertaken.

The co-op permits up to 65% financing and pied-à-terre ownership, and it is pet friendly; a 2% flip tax is paid by the buyer. The southern entrance to the East River Esplanade is adjacent, while Sutton East River Park, the small river overlook at 54th Street and the Town Tennis Club are close by. The FDR Drive runs along the neighborhood’s eastern edge.

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "white-glove" residence offers "spectacular river views" from its "dual-wing" layout, while providing "old-world charm" with attentive elevator operators and a welcoming reception desk. The "prime location" puts you just "steps from transit" and surrounded by "first-rate dining options" on 1st Avenue. The building maintains "strict financial requirements," but residents praise its "impeccable service" and "convenient access" to downtown via express buses.

Sales History

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.

By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
