Overview of 235 West 70th Street

235 West 70th Street is a seven story, 61 apartment post-war co-op built in 1965 on a broad Upper West Side block opposite P.S. 199, the Jessie Isador Straus School. Completed in 1963 and designed by Edward Durell Stone, the low school building presents a marked contrast to the surrounding apartment façades. The co-op has a white brick exterior, three front fire escapes, sidewalk planting, and a gray stone entrance surround set four steps below street level.

The building’s exposures range from south facing treetop and open sky views to outlooks over interior courtyards and gardens. Generous foyers, dining alcoves, and wide hallways often create separate space for dining or a home office, while many apartments have hardwood floors, substantial closets, separate kitchens, and through wall air conditioning.

A live-in superintendent oversees the building, which has central laundry, bicycle and resident storage, a garden, and intercom entry. The lobby and hallways have been renovated. Pets and pied-à-terre ownership are permitted with board approval.

235 West 70th Street is between Amsterdam and West End Avenues, with Riverside Park to the west, Central Park to the east, and Lincoln Center several blocks south. The 72nd Street station at Broadway, served by the 1, 2, and 3 trains, is two blocks north.

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.
