240 West 75th Street is a boutique prewar co-op built in 1920 and converted to cooperative ownership in 1986. The 10 story building contains just 38 units with only four apartments per floor, creating an intimate residential environment. Located between Broadway and West End Avenue in the heart of the Upper West Side, the building sits within walking distance of Central Park, Riverside Park, Lincoln Center, and neighborhood staples including Citarella, Fairway, and the Beacon Theater.
The building's apartments range from renovated one bedrooms to a dramatic duplex penthouse with two private terraces and 360 degree views. Common features throughout units include original hardwood floors, high ceilings of 9 feet or more, crown moldings, and windowed kitchens. Many apartments have been thoughtfully updated with modern amenities while preserving prewar character, featuring stainless steel appliances, granite or quartz countertops, and custom cabinetry. The penthouse showcases exceptional details including French limestone floors, a La Cornue range, wood burning oven, and reclaimed barn beam ceilings.
Residents enjoy a full service building with a live-in superintendent who accepts packages, along with a landscaped courtyard garden equipped with a grill. Additional amenities include central laundry facilities, bike storage, private storage rooms, and an elegant lobby with mahogany trim details. The building maintains a pet friendly policy and welcomes pied-à-terre ownership.
The location provides excellent transportation access with the 72nd Street subway station nearby, serving the 1, 2, and 3 train lines. The neighborhood offers diverse dining options including Café Luxembourg and Cesca, while major grocery retailers and the cultural attractions of Lincoln Center are all within easy reach. This combination of intimate building scale, prime Upper West Side positioning, and range of apartment configurations makes 240 West 75th Street a distinctive residential option.

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.
