Overview of 181 East 73rd Street

181 East 73rd Street is a 20 story post-war cooperative with 117 apartments on a tree lined Lenox Hill block between Lexington and Third Avenues. Completed in 1958, it became a cooperative in 1987. Several larger residences were formed by combining adjacent apartments, while recurring Junior 4 plans have been adapted with a second bedroom or office.

Apartments commonly have substantial entry foyers, generous closets, windowed kitchens, and separate or clearly defined dining areas. Split bedroom arrangements recur in larger layouts, and high floor homes often have multiple exposures and open city views. Hardwood floors, through wall air conditioning, and oversized living spaces also appear repeatedly.

The red brick building has a canopied entrance and a white marble base with polished black granite trim. Services and amenities include a 24 hour doorman, live-in superintendent, attended lobby, resident storage, central laundry room, bike room, mail room, and full service garage. The co-op permits up to 70 percent financing, has a 2 percent flip tax, and currently has a capital assessment scheduled through April 2028; dogs and in-unit washer dryers are not permitted.

Central Park and Museum Mile are several avenue blocks west, while Third Avenue shopping and dining begin at the eastern end of the block. The Q train stops at 72nd Street and Second Avenue, and the 6 train stops at 77th Street and Lexington Avenue.

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.
