154 East 97th Street is a charming co-op building located in the vibrant Carnegie Hill neighborhood of Manhattan. This income-restricted HDFC building offers a unique opportunity for residents to own a home in one of New York City's premier areas. The building is conveniently situated just two blocks from the express Q train and one block from the 6 train, providing easy access to the rest of the city.

The apartments in this building feature a variety of layouts, including junior one-bedroom units that can serve as both living and working spaces.

Many units also offer high ceilings and unobstructed views, enhancing the overall living experience. Notably, the building has a 30% flip tax on profits from sales, which is an important consideration for potential buyers.

Income limits for prospective buyers are set at approximately $87,720 for one occupant, $100,200 for two, and $112,680 for three occupants.

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.
