Overview of 142 Fifth Avenue

142 Fifth Avenue is a 1900 Beaux Arts cooperative in Flatiron/Union Square, a 10 story building organized around loft like residences rather than conventional apartment layouts. Full floor homes, duplexes, and penthouses recur among its apartments, with high ceilings, oversized windows, multiple exposures, and views toward the historic Ladies Mile buildings along Fifth Avenue.

Private keyed entry, abundant natural light, and generous proportions are recurring residential features, while some homes extend outdoors to private roof terraces or roof gardens. The layouts range from large open lofts to more distinctly separated bedroom and media areas, with central air conditioning, laundry rooms, open kitchens, and flexible spaces for offices or studios appearing in the larger residences.

The building has on site management, a full time superintendent, porters, and intercom security. Its co op policies permit subletting, co purchasing, gifting, pied-à-terres, and parents buying for children, with financing permitted up to 80 percent. Union Square and Madison Square Park are both close by, along with Eataly and the Union Square Greenmarket; the 14 St Union Square station serves the 4, 5, 6, L, N, Q, R, and W trains.

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.
