Overview of 200 East 78th Street

200 East 78th Street is a distinguished 21-story cooperative building located in the heart of the Upper East Side. Originally constructed in 1965 and converted to a co-op in 1985, it houses 129 units. The building is known for its full-time doorman service, on-site garage, and live-in superintendent, providing residents with a high level of convenience and security. Its location offers easy access to the 6 and Q subway lines, as well as the 79th Street crosstown bus, making commuting straightforward.

Apartments in the building are celebrated for their oversized layouts, wall-to-wall windows, and exceptional closet space. Many units feature renovated kitchens with modern appliances, marble bathrooms, and abundant natural light. Some residences offer unique features such as private terraces or patios, providing a rare opportunity for indoor-outdoor living in the city. The building's financials are bolstered by a long-term retail lease with Gristedes, contributing to notably low maintenance fees.

Residents enjoy proximity to a variety of neighborhood amenities, including gourmet markets like Citarella and Eli's, fine dining establishments, and cultural attractions. Central Park and the East River Promenade are just a short walk away, offering ample opportunities for outdoor recreation. The co-op allows for 70% financing, and pets are permitted with board approval, making it a flexible option for potential buyers.

Overall, 200 East 78th Street offers a blend of spacious living, modern conveniences, and a prime location, making it a desirable choice for those seeking a home on the Upper East Side. The building's recent completion of its Local Law 11 project further enhances its appeal as a sound investment opportunity.

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.
