The Endicott, located at 101 West 81st Street, is a historic prewar cooperative that began its life as a luxury hotel in 1889. The seven-story building, featuring distinctive orange and beige brick façade with decorative details, bay windows, and eight pillars at its entrance, was converted to 146 cooperative apartments in 1981 by Robert Quinlan, with conversion design by Stephen B. Jacobs. The building has an intriguing history, including a brief period in the early 1930s when gangster Dutch Schultz was a resident, and its former palm court was later transformed into DDL Foodshow by movie mogul Dino De Laurentis.
The full-service building offers 24-hour doorman service, a live-in superintendent, and laundry facilities on every floor. Many apartments feature exposed brick walls and wood-burning fireplaces, while some top floor units include roof rights and terraces. The co-op allows pets and pied-à-terres, with various apartment configurations from studios to multi-bedroom units.
Situated in a prime Upper West Side location, The Endicott spans from West 81st to West 82nd Streets along Columbus Avenue. The building sits directly across from the American Museum of Natural History and Theodore Roosevelt Park, one block from Central Park, and is surrounded by boutique shopping, cafes, and restaurants. Its central location provides easy access to multiple subway lines and various neighborhood amenities.

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.
