Overview of 25 East 83rd Street

25 East 83rd Street is a full-service prewar cooperative located on a tranquil tree-lined block just off Fifth Avenue and Central Park. Designed by architect Frederick Lee Ackerman, this 12-story, beige-brick building was completed in 1938 and converted to cooperative use in 1983. It features 54 apartments and offers amenities such as a 24-hour doorman, a fitness center, and a rooftop garden with views of Central Park and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The building permits pets and pied-Ă -terre arrangements, and includes electricity in the maintenance fees.

Notable for its innovative design, 25 East 83rd Street was the first residential building in New York to offer central air-conditioning. The building originally featured glass blocks in its corner windows, which provided soundproofing and diffused light. Although these were replaced with modern insulated windows during a renovation in 1986, the building retains its architectural charm with features like chamfered corners and generous window proportions. The layout of the apartments is flexible, with many units offering spacious living areas, ample storage, and the potential for customization.

Residents enjoy a prime location just steps from the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Central Park, with easy access to shopping and dining along Madison Avenue. The building is zoned for P.S. 6, one of the city's top public schools, making it an attractive option for families. The cooperative is financially sound and well-maintained, with a live-in superintendent and a recently renovated lobby. Overall, 25 East 83rd Street represents a blend of historic charm and modern convenience in one of New York City's most desirable neighborhoods.

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.
