Overview of 102 West 85th Street

102 West 85th Street is a charming Art Deco-style cooperative apartment building located in the heart of the Upper West Side, New York City. Erected in 1931, this 12-story building houses 91 units and is situated just one block from Central Park, offering residents easy access to major transportation lines, dining, and shopping options. The building features a part-time doorman, live-in superintendent, and a full-time porter, ensuring convenience and security for its residents.

The apartments, particularly the studios, are noted for their pre-war charm, featuring high beamed ceilings, original wood floors, and large windows that provide ample natural light. Many units have been renovated, boasting updated kitchens and bathrooms. Common amenities include a central laundry room, bike storage, and private storage options. The building is pet-friendly and allows pied-Ă -terre, co-purchasing, and subletting under certain conditions.

Assessments are in place, including a capital assessment and a special assessment, which are important considerations for potential buyers.

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "classic pre-war gem" on the Central Upper West Side offers "practical luxury" with part-time doorman service and a "responsive" live-in super. "Convenience reigns supreme" with laundry, bike storage, and proximity to 86th Street transportation hub. The "accommodating" board and building policies make for a "hassle-free" approval process.

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.
