Overview of 127 West 96th Street

Located in the heart of the Upper West Side, 127 West 96th Street is a classic prewar cooperative building designed by Boak & Paris. Built in 1930 and converted to a co-op in 1984, this 17-story building houses 145 apartments. Residents enjoy a range of amenities including a 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, a beautifully landscaped common garden, bike room, and a basement laundry room. The building is pet-friendly, though pied-à-terres are not permitted.

The building's prime location offers easy access to Central Park, Riverside Park, and a variety of shopping and dining options, including Whole Foods and Trader Joe's. Public transportation is conveniently accessible with the B, C, 1, 2, and 3 trains nearby, as well as the crosstown bus on 96th Street.

Apartments in 127 West 96th Street are characterized by their spacious layouts and prewar charm, featuring high ceilings, oversized windows, and intricate details like crown moldings and arched entryways. Many units have been renovated to include modern kitchens with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and ample storage. Some apartments offer unique layouts with flexible spaces for home offices or additional bedrooms.

While the building does not have a garage or health club, it compensates with its proximity to major parks and cultural attractions. The cooperative is well-managed, ensuring a comfortable and vibrant living experience in one of New York City's most desirable neighborhoods.

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.
