Built in 1915 by Vincent Astor and designed by renowned architect Charles A. Platt, Astor Court is one of the Upper West Side's most distinguished pre-war cooperatives. This 13 story red brick building spans an entire block between West 89th and 90th Streets, featuring a distinctive U shaped design that wraps around a celebrated private English garden courtyard. The building's most striking architectural feature is its massive copper cornice that projects eight feet and was originally painted in gold and red, creating one of the city's most dramatic rooflines.
The 158 unit co-op offers full service amenities including 24 hour doormen at both entrances, a live-in superintendent, roof terrace, fitness center, children's playroom, bike storage, central laundry, and an on-site garage accessible via a ramp from the 89th Street entrance. Vincent Astor, who inherited his fortune as a college freshman after his father perished on the Titanic, sold the building in 1922. It was later owned by Henri Bendel of women's clothing store fame before converting to cooperative ownership in 1985.
Apartments in Astor Court feature classic prewar details including 10 foot ceilings, wood burning fireplaces, and hardwood floors. Units range from one to four bedrooms, with some offering views of either the private garden courtyard or sweeping city vistas. The windowed kitchens typically feature high end appliances from Sub-Zero, Wolf, Viking, and Miele, while penthouses boast private terraces and skylights. The building's prime location provides easy access to both Central Park and Riverside Park, with excellent transportation options nearby. The co-op is pet friendly and allows pied-à-terre ownership, with financing up to 70% permitted.

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.
