172 West 82nd Street

Overview of 172 West 82nd Street

Built in 1900, 172 West 82nd Street is an intimate brownstone co-op on one of the Upper West Side's most desirable tree lined blocks. The well maintained walk up building features a recently restored façade with new top of the line windows, complimentary laundry facilities, and a pet friendly policy. Located moments from Central Park, Riverside Park, and the American Museum of Natural History, the building offers convenient access to the neighborhood's celebrated dining, shopping, and cultural destinations.

Apartments throughout the building showcase classic prewar details including wood burning fireplaces, exposed brick walls, and soaring ceilings that reach 11 feet on the parlor level and over 10 feet in other units. Hardwood floors, base and crown moldings, and generous southern exposures with garden or tree line views are common features. Several units are configured as duplexes, and multiple apartments include private terraces. One particularly notable residence spans an entire floor at 1,644 square feet, created by joining two adjacent apartments to form a 30 foot living room with two wood burning fireplaces.

Recent renovations in individual units have introduced modern kitchens with high end appliances including Sub-Zero refrigerators, custom cabinetry, and granite or marble countertops, while preserving the building's historic character. Many apartments feature custom built ins, walk in closets, and updated bathrooms. Some units have installed central air conditioning with board approval, and pied-à-terre ownership is permitted. The building currently has an assessment of $465 per month through April 2026 for roof repair and pointing work.
