Overview of The Berkeley at 35-24 78th street

The Berkeley is a co-op complex in the Jackson Heights Historic District comprising three buildings designed by architect Philip Birnbaum in 1938. Built in the Neo-Georgian style, the buildings wrap around a shared interior garden maintained by residents on a volunteer basis. The complex features full time maintenance staff, laundry facilities, bike storage, additional storage for rent, and a common room. The buildings received an A rating for energy efficiency, with new windows installed across units in 2024.

Apartments at The Berkeley showcase distinctive prewar details including graceful arches, original built-in shelving, crown moldings, and 9 foot ceilings. Many units feature sunken living rooms, dining platforms or alcoves, and dressing rooms with multiple closets. Original hardwood floors remain in excellent condition throughout. Bathrooms typically include classic black and white tile, cast iron tubs, and separate shower stalls. Units range from spacious one bedrooms to larger layouts that can accommodate two to three bedrooms, with some apartments exceeding 1,200 square feet. Corner units offer multiple exposures, and top floor apartments provide particularly bright living spaces with bay windows and marbled window sills.

The complex is pet friendly with some restrictions, including a 30 pound weight limit and a designated area in the garden for pets. Subletting is permitted after five years of ownership. Located near the 74th Street/Broadway station, residents have access to five subway lines (E, F, M, R, and 7).
