Overview of 269 West 72nd Street

269 West 72nd Street is an Italian Renaissance-palazzo-style cooperative building designed by architects Schwartz & Gross and constructed in 1924. The 16-story structure, which was converted to a cooperative in 1986, features 58 units with four apartments per floor, maintaining many of its original pre-war details including high beamed ceilings and attractive window reveals at both its base and top.

The building offers residents amenities including a live-in superintendent, laundry facilities, bicycle storage, and storage lockers (with wait list). The co-op maintains a flexible policy regarding pets, pied-à-terres, and co-purchases, subject to board approval, with subletting permitted after two years of ownership.

Situated mid-block on West 72nd Street, the building enjoys a prime Upper West Side location just steps from an express subway station serving the 1/2/3 trains. The property is conveniently positioned between Riverside Park and Central Park, with easy access to numerous shopping options including Trader Joe's, Fairway, Citarella, and HMart.

The building recently completed several capital improvement projects including Local Law 11 work, water tank replacement, and gas riser updates. A bulk rate Spectrum cable and internet package is available to residents.

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.
