Overview of 20 West 77th Street

20 West 77th Street is a neo-Renaissance style cooperative building designed by renowned architect George F. Pelham and constructed in 1926. The building was converted to a cooperative in 1969 and stands as a distinguished pre-war landmark on one of the Upper West Side's most culturally significant blocks.

The boutique building features an intimate layout with just two apartments per floor accessed via semi-private landings. Building amenities include a part-time doorman, live-in superintendent, individual storage bins, bicycle storage, laundry facilities, and a landscaped roof deck offering views of Central Park and the city skyline.

Positioned directly across from the American Museum of Natural History and just steps from Central Park West, the building enjoys a prime location in Manhattan's Upper West Side cultural district. The New-York Historical Society is nearby, and the street serves as the starting point for the annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

The building maintains several cooperative policies, including a flip tax of $165 per share (up to 2% of purchase price) and requires board approval for pets. Transportation is convenient with nearby access to the B, C, and 1/2/3 subway lines.

The pre-war structure features classic architectural elements including a canopied entrance and maintains its historic character while providing modern amenities.

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.
