Eastgate is a rare residential enclave in NYC occupying both sides of a street, consisting of six brown-brick apartment buildings built between 1928 and 1936. The development features Georgian and Tudor-inspired architecture with excellent masonry, asymmetrical brick textures, and a mix of formal and informal design elements.
Eastgate at 225 East 73rd Street is a 13 story, 87 unit pre-war cooperative and one of six buildings forming a coordinated enclave on both sides of the block. Designed by Emery Roth and developed by Bing & Bing in 1929, it closely mirrors 220 East 73rd Street across the way. Its brown brick façade has a recessed central section, textured masonry, gargoyles, hanging entrance lanterns and a canopy framed by sidewalk landscaping.
Many apartments preserve formal foyers, beamed ceilings, hardwood floors, windowed kitchens, dining alcoves and wood burning fireplaces. Corner rooms and multiple exposures recur in the larger layouts, while combined apartments have created more expansive configurations. Private terraces are concentrated on the 11th floor and penthouse level, where they overlook the surrounding townhouses and gardens.
The building has a full time doorman, landscaped roof terrace, courtyard garden with a grill, fitness room, central laundry, bike room and private storage subject to availability. It is pet friendly, permits pied-à-terre ownership and financing up to 75 percent, and allows washer dryer installation in wet spaces with architect and board approval. Maintenance includes electricity.
Eastgate occupies a tree lined, mid-block stretch of East 73rd Street between Second and Third Avenues in Lenox Hill. Third Avenue restaurants and shops are at the west end of the block, while Central Park lies to the west and the East River Esplanade to the east.

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.
