Overview of 221 East 76th Street

221 East 76th Street is a compact 1929 co-op in Lenox Hill, with 43 apartments over six stories. The brown brick, mid-block building occupies a tree lined street between Second and Third Avenues, directly across from JHS 167.

Many apartments have high ceilings, separate windowed kitchens, windowed bathrooms, and substantial closet space. Southern exposures recur, while original hardwood floors and moldings preserve elements of the building’s pre-war interiors.

The building has a part time doorman, live-in superintendent, central laundry room, and renovated lobby. Pied-à-terre ownership and subletting are permitted subject to board rules, while dogs are not allowed. The 6 train stops at the 77th Street station on 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.
