Intimate 1890 pet-friendly co-op with just ten units, featuring historic details, modern updates, low maintenance, and a roof deck Prime Upper West Side location near Central Park and museums with excellent transit access
202 West 78th Street is a bowfront brownstone and brick cooperative on the Upper West Side, built in 1890 and converted to cooperative use in 1979. The 10 residential unit walk up retains its pre-war character, with a restored stoop, lobby, and hallway details. A shared roof deck, storage, pet friendly policies, and financially healthy operations are among the building's practical features.
The apartments are shaped by high ceilings, original wood moldings and doors, hardwood floors, exposed brick, and decorative fireplaces. The layouts range from two bedroom homes to larger three bedroom configurations, with features that recur across the apartments including generous storage, separate dining areas or dining nooks, and occasional home office space. Several residences have in-unit washer/dryers, while renovation plans in some layouts allow for an additional bathroom or bedroom subject to board approval.
At the corner of West 78th Street and Amsterdam Avenue, the building sits on a tree lined block between Central Park and Riverside Park, each within a few blocks. The American Museum of Natural History, Children's Museum of Manhattan, and New-York Historical Society are nearby, along with Zabar's, Fairway, Citarella, Trader Joe's, and neighborhood restaurants and cafes. The 1, 2, and 3 subway lines, as well as the B and C trains, serve the surrounding Upper West Side.

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.
