Overview of 18 West 70th Street

18 West 70th Street is a distinguished pre-war co-op building constructed in 1926, ideally situated just moments from Central Park West in Manhattan's Upper West Side. The 10-story building houses 49 residences and maintains its historic character with original marble details in the lobby.

The building offers residents a range of amenities including a live-in superintendent, full-time porter, central laundry facilities, bike storage, and storage lockers available for rent. A standout feature is the building's beautifully landscaped courtyard, providing a serene retreat from city life.

Apartments in the building typically feature pre-war architectural elements such as beamed ceilings, hardwood floors, and generous room proportions. Many units benefit from multiple exposures and views of the surrounding neighborhood, with some offering glimpses of Central Park.

The co-op maintains a flexible and welcoming policy structure, permitting pied-à-terres, gifting, and co-purchasing arrangements. The building is pet-friendly and allows financing up to 80% of the purchase price. Sublets are permitted for a maximum of two years within any five-year period, subject to board approval.

The location offers exceptional access to Central Park, Lincoln Center, and the cultural attractions of the Upper West Side. The neighborhood is known for its renowned restaurants, cafes, and shops, with convenient access to public transportation including the B and C subway lines.

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.
