Overview of The Park Royal at 23 West 73rd Street

As if being across the street from the Dakota and steps from Central Park weren’t enough, this 16-story pre-war red-brick co-op in the coveted neighborhood of Central Park West has been called “one of the most attractive sidestreet apartment houses on the Upper West Side.” It’s that sidestreet location that allows residents to enjoy a level of quiet that many on nearby streets in the bustling district do not. Designed by noted architect George F. Pelham, the 250-unit building was built as a luxury hotel in 1926 and converted to a cooperative in 1985. Amenities include a doorman and concierge, a New York Sports Club gym in the building, a children’s playroom, storage and laundry facilities. Many of the city’s better dining, shopping and cultural destinations (from Lincoln Center and Fairway Market to Alice’s Tea Cup and Magnolia Bakery) lie within minutes in every direction.

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "gracious pre-war" gem boasts a "very special lobby" and "impeccable" staff including doorman, concierge and resident manager. The "reasonable" board and ongoing upgrades like fresh hallway decor keep this building "meticulously maintained." Residents enjoy "convenient" access to C and express 2 trains, while the "vibrant" Columbus Ave location offers "excellent shopping" and "diverse dining options." The "bonus" NY Sports Club access off the lobby (extra fee) adds modern convenience to classic charm.

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.
