157-161 East 75th Street is a distinctive pre-war cooperative building created from three combined townhouses on Manhattan's Upper East Side. Located on a tree-lined block between Lexington and Third Avenues, the building stands opposite historic carriage houses, creating a quintessential Upper East Side streetscape.
The intimate building houses between 12-17 residences across its combined structures, maintaining two separate entrances at 157 and 161. The pre-war architecture is characterized by soaring ceiling heights ranging from 10'6" to 11'5", wood-burning fireplaces, and period details throughout. Many apartments feature both northern and southern exposures, providing abundant natural light.
Residents enjoy amenities including an elevator, a live-in resident manager who handles packages and mail distribution, basement laundry facilities, and a secluded landscaped garden for residents' use. Private storage units are available to residents, and the building maintains views of the St. Jean Baptiste Church from its north-facing windows.
The cooperative allows pied-à-terres and pets, with financing permitted up to 50%. A 1% flip tax is paid by purchasers. The building's location provides easy access to Upper East Side amenities, including restaurants like Orsay and JG Melon, specialty shops such as William Poll and Citarella, and various transportation options.

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.
