Overview of 10 West 86th Street

10 West 86th Street is a 15 story cooperative designed by George F. Pelham and completed in 1925, just west of Central Park West. Its brown brick façade rises from a one story limestone base, with brick quoins, pedimented window surrounds, a balustraded balcony at the tenth floor and a cornice.

The building contains 30 residences, generally arranged two per floor with semi private landings. Classic six and seven layouts recur, with formal foyers, separate living and dining rooms, former staff rooms that may serve as offices or additional bedrooms, high beamed ceilings and hardwood floors. In-unit laundry has also been incorporated into a number of renovated homes.

The penthouse is distinguished structurally by four exposures, with views toward Central Park and across the city. The building has a part time doorman, a live-in superintendent, bicycle storage and resident storage. It permits pied-à-terre ownership and 75 percent financing; dogs are not allowed, though cats are permitted.

Central Park West is at the eastern end of the block, with Central Park immediately beyond it. The 86th Street station at Central Park West serves the B and C trains, and the American Museum of Natural History is several blocks south.

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.
